Extraction Site Management for Alveolar Ridge Preservation

LOD-143-00

Prof. Eric Rompen

57 min

This lecture will focus on how to manage the extraction socket in the esthetic zone. What do we do not to lose too much volume?

Why Guided Surgery (Part 2) - Edentulous Treatment Options

LOD-139-00

Dr. Christopher B. Marchack

62 min

The treatment of the fully edentulous patient with computer assisted tomography, computer assisted surgical planning software, and a guided surgical technique using a stereo-lithography surgical template for implant placement has five-year clinical studies reported. Initial issues with esthetics and fit of the prosthesis are concerns. This presentation will discuss the treatment of the fully edentulous arch, treatment factors, and treatment options. At the conclusion of the presentation a demonstration will be performed treatment planning the edentulous patient using a surgical planning software program.

Why Guided Surgery (Part 1) - A Restorative Perspective

LOD-134-00

Dr. Christopher B. Marchack

60 min

To achieve an ideal prosthetic result with dental implants, it takes proper treatment planning. The use of surgical templates, helps ensure the correct implant position. Traditional implant placement, with conventional surgical templates are restorative driven, although it does not account for anatomical factors that will make it impossible to place the implant. CAD/CAM surgical templates or guided templates, through the use of surgical planning software allows for a restorative driven implant placement along with a three dimensional view of the patient’s anatomy. This presentation will discuss the advantages of guided surgery in treating patients with this advancing technology.

Non & Minimally Invasive Veneers

LOD-131-00

Dr. Louis Malcmacher

54 min

Non and Minimally invasive veneers is an area of dentistry that can really expand your practice. Many people want veneers. That want to improve their smiles. But, many wonder how they can afford it. This lecture will cover this aspect. But, it will focus on how do you do it. And, how do you help your patient understand the process and feel comfortable in moving forward with this option.

Impressioning Revisited

LOD-128-00

Dr. Vinny Celenza

42 min

Clear, accurate and easy to read replication of our tooth preparations is a pre-requisite to creating well fitting restorations. Making beautiful impressions requires much more than a knowledge of dental impression materials. This presentation is designed to develop an understanding and technique for: soft tissue control, tooth preparation design, precise margin placement, impressioning, and developing the room for our impression material. Clinical cases depicting particular clinical challenges will be presented and discussed in a way that allows the practitioner the ability to easily try these techniques in the office immediately.

Prosthetic Cantilevers - Friend or Foe?

LOD-126-00

Dr. Vinny Celenza

Seeking Interdisciplinary Excellence

LOD-113-02

Dr. Frank Celenza

47 min

The integration of Periodontics with Orthodontics might seem perplexing at first. Whereas the specialty of Orthodontics has historically been associated with a younger patient population, that of Periodontics is probably associated with an older patient type. Why then, would one choose to practice the two together? Are there interactions that we, as clinicians can harness for our patients? <br> This presentation will outline and delineate what many of these combined treatment modalities are, and how they fit into interdisciplinary treatment planning. In many of these examples, the prosthetic and esthetic benefits will be illustrated. Further, the development and evolution of these combined specialties through the eyes and experiences of the presenter will be explored, with a perspective towards future developments that are of interest.

Implant Interactions in Orthodontics

LOD-113-01

Dr. Frank Celenza

47 min

Whereas the advent of successful and predictable implant dentistry has had a pronounced impact on the practice of restorative dentistry, the same might not be said for the effect implants have had upon the specialty of Orthodontics. However, this presenter feels strongly that a new era of Orthodontic involvement with implants is upon us, and will illustrate the fascinating ability of implants to facilitate tooth movement.<br> The development of implants as useful entities to an Orthodontist, both in the techniques of

The Success of Endodontic Therapy - Healing and Function

LOD-089-00

Dr. Shimon Friedman

100 min

The Success of Endodontic Therapy - Healing and Function<br>Over 30% of root-filled teeth in the population present with persistent disease, suggesting an extensive need to manage the affected teeth. Treatment options include extraction and replacement, orthograde retreatment and apical surgery, and selection between these can often be complex. When the patient is motivated to retain the affected tooth, a key consideration is the prognosis, or potential for healing; therefore, the prognosis should be communicated to patients in a clear and objective manner. This lecture focuses on the prognosis of orthograde retreatment and apical surgery.<br><br>Inconsistent reports on the prognosis of orthograde retreatment and apical surgery, in contrast with consistently favourable reports for implant-supported single-tooth replacement, have caused considerable confusion in the profession. To reliably reflect the prognosis, studies must conform to design and methodology criteria consistent with an acceptable level of evidence. These criteria are met by only a few studies on retreatment and apical surgery. This lecture identifies the studies that provide the best evidence and outlines the prognosis of retreatment and apical surgery in regards to healing and symptom-free function of the treated teeth. Furthermore, specific clinical factors are highlighted that may influence the prognosis.

One appointment Inlays/Onlays; Durable, Economical, and Appreciated

LOD-087-00

Dr. Lorin F. Berland

34 min

Patients are demanding aesthetic, yet reliable alternatives to the replacement of their defective amalgam restorations. Learn the rationale for replacing defective amalgam restorations while conserving and reinforcing the remaining tooth structure. Systematic methods will be detailed about amalgam and caries removal, insulation, proper preparation, impression taking, inlay/onlay fabrication, and final cementation techniques.
