LOD-020-02
Dr. James Kohner
This course provides a maximum experience demonstrating the various principles and clinical procedures needed to understand Esthetic Crown Lengthening in all its variations. We cover indications, contraindications, and methods of managing surrounding bone.<br><br>Topics include: how to handle hard and soft tissues; proper surgical techniques; preservation of esthetics in the final tissue contours; and relocation of all structures that comprise the biologic width, namely: sulcus, junctional epithelium, connective tissue fibers, and bone.<br><br>The DVD program illustrates flap surgery, plus bone surgery designed to give a predictable result. It will give you information to consider doing some of these procedures yourself, or if you chose not to do so, you will have a better understanding of the procedures that you are requesting of a periodontal specialist.
Functional Crown Lengthening for More Predictable Restorative
LOD-020-01
Dr. James Kohner
This program provides a maximum experience covering the various principles and clinical procedures needed to perform crown lengthening in all its variations. We cover indications, contraindications, and methods of managing surrounding bone. Topics include: how to handle hard and soft tissues; proper surgical techniques; preservation of esthetics in the final tissue contours; and relocation of all structures that comprise the biologic width, namely: sulcus, junctional epithelium, connective tissue fibers, and bone. The program illustrates step by step methods for managing bone and soft tissue to allow for predictable impressions, and the avoiding of common restorative complications. Some typical complications include sore gums following crowns, sensitive teeth, plus crowns falling off or developing caries prematurely. Dentists who want to do some or most of their own crown extensions, or those who just want to know more about the subject, will be helped by this course. Crown extension is one of the most commonly required procedures in restorative dentistry, and is often under utilized.
Complications in Dentoalveolar Surgery
LOD-016-00
Dr. Earl Freymiller
Although the risks of complications associated with dentoalveolar surgery can oftentimes be greatly reduced, they cannot be completely eliminated. It is impossible to practice dentoalveolar surgery without experiencing the occasional complication. In the course of this lecture, the more common complications will be discussed in detail, as well as some less commonly encountered complications that have the potential for serious consequences. The lecture will specifically focus on ways to prevent or reduce the risk of various complications, how to recognize complications when they occur, and appropriate methods of treatment
Challenging Composite Restoration With Free-Hand-Bonding - An Illusion Became Reality
LOD-008-00
Dr. Didier Dietschi
The growing concern of patients for tissue preservation and oral aesthetics has rejuvenated 'free-hand bonding with composites' and made it a primary treatment option for the anterior teeth. This lecture covers fundamental knowledge about color and optical properties, different treatment options with composite restorations, and provides a comprehensive description of clinical procedures.
