Clinical Pharmacology - What Every Dentist Should Know

LOD-072-00

Dr. Anthony Feck

88 min

Modern dentistry has expanded the arsenal of services to restore patients oral health and cosmetic needs like never before. These changes have corresponded to an increasingly complex medical environment where patients are presenting at a more advanced age, with more medical conditions, and taking more medications. Understanding the pharmacology as it relates to their systems and how the drugs they are taking, as well as those we intend to administer affect the patient, one another, and our planned treatment is necessary for a safe and successful outcome to our planned care.

Treating the Medically Complex Patient

LOD-069-00

Dr. Adi Garfunkel

60 min

&#8226 What is the dental-medical approach to the hypertensive patient?<br> &#8226 Could we treat patients with medication induced bleeding tendency?<br> &#8226 The use of adrenalin in local anesthesia constitutes at times a contradictory subject. How do we deal with this question?<br>

Minimally Invasive Soft Tissue Augmentation

LOD-067-00

Dr. Homa H. Zadeh

75 min

A variety of techniques have been described for augmentation of soft tissue around teeth with varying donor material and access. Recently, tunnel technique has been used for minimally invasive assess to sites being augmented. This presentation will describe a novel access for soft tissue augmentation and root coverage. Moreover, application of autogenous tissue, as well as growth factors will be discussed. Minimally invasive soft tissue augmentation may also be applied for modification of thin biotypes around dental implants. The techniques described will be illustrated with clinical cases.

Tissue Engineering for Hard and Soft Tissue Regeneration - Clinical and Applied Results

LOD-064-00

Dr. E. Todd Scheyer

50 min

The promising field of periodontal tissue engineering, barely a decade old, is likely to revolutionize Periodontics. Cell based man-made skin, the first commercial product of tissue engineering, is already on the market and other variations will soon join it. Recombinant technology has provided us the first fully synthetic powerful growth factor available in periodontics with r-PDGF-BB which has been critically evaluated in all areas of periodontal research. This course will provide an overview of biologically based and live cell based tissue substitutes. Results from human and animal studies using biomimetics and tissue engineering to facilitate root coverage and bone formation will be discussed and human histology will be reviewed. Expanded clinical applications of growth factor influenced wound healing in tissue regeneration will also be presented.

Current trends in Aesthetic Periodontology

LOD-063-00

Dr. Andre Saadoun

Undefined

Nowadays, the goal of periodontal plastic muccogingival procedure is to perform surgery as atraumatically as possible at the recipient and donor site. Recently, as an alternative to autogeneous gingival graft in root coverage procedures, Enamel Matrix Derivative and acellular dermal matrix allograft were utilized to correct this gingival defect, negating the requirement for a second surgical site.

YSGG Laser Precision in Periodontal Plastic Surgery

LOD-059-00

Dr. Bobby Butler

48 min

Lasers have been used in dentistry for many years. Mostly they have been used with soft tissue procedures. Recently the Er,Cr:YSGG laser has been shown to be safe and effective in osseous procedures. Many cosmetic dentists have been using lasers for esthetic crown lengthening procedures, but most of these cases are simple gingivectomies and not true crown lengthening procedures. Complications can occur without understanding the biologic width and different periodontal biotypes. This presentation will discuss current and future applications with the Er, Cr: YSGG laser with periodontal surgical procedures. The focus will be its use in closed and open esthetic crown lenghtening procedures. Discussion with case selection and osseous biotypes with be stressed. Other applications involving osseous augmentation procedures, harvesting osseous blocks, ridge splitting and lateral sinus wall procedures, will also be briefly discussed.

Predictable Anterior Aesthetics with Veneers - Interdisciplinary Approach

LOD-055-00

Dr. Galip Gurel

90 min

Creating the precision in terms of the preparation, fit and the aesthetic final outcome with veneer restorations needs a detailed treatment plan which is unique to each case. Designing a new smile for a patient consists of many steps which are very important and if followed correctly, produce predictable success. The key to aesthetic excellence requires patient communication as well as the communication with the laboratory and the specialists from the beginning of the case till the end. This presentation will help the clinician to understand the clinical steps as well the patient communication steps.<br><br>In todays dentistry success depends on an interdisciplinary team work. Every member of the team (including the specialists, lab technicians and the patient) should be aware of the treatment planning and the end result from the beginning. Every effort should be spent to bring the teeth to their natural position on the dental arch, hence creating enough space for the restoration to be received so that the aim should be minimum tooth preparation.<br><br>After that stage, in order to achieve a very precise and predictable tooth preparation, wax-up, silicon indexes and related techniques such as APR (Aesthetic Pre Recontouring), APT (Aesthetic Pre-evaluative Temporaries) and preparation through the APTs are extremely crucial. This eliminates all the possible mistakes and destruction of the depth cutters that could have been done if the tooth was to be prepared without realizing the aging affects on the enamel (volumetric enamel loss) or their inappropriate teeth positions on the dental arch
