Lecture Course/Participation

Lasers in Periodontics and Restorative Dentistry ROBERT CONVISSAR, D.D.S.

OVERVIEW Dentists have a variety of wavelengths to choose from when deciding which laser is most appropriate for his or her practice. Some wavelengths are perfectly suited for periodontal therapy, while other wavelengths may be more appropriate for a prosthetics-driven practice. The use of lasers for specific procedures found in everyday fixed, removable and implant prosthetic cases will be highlighted. Since the basis of a successful prosthetic reconstruction is a healthy periodontal foundation, the use of lasers for non-surgical, surgical, and regenerative periodontics will also be discussed. OBJECTIVES • Soft and hard tissue crown lengthening • Cordless gingival troughing • Cosmetic recontouring of gingival prior to laminate placement • Treatment of altered passive eruption cases prior to eruption • Peri-implant soft tissue modification and treatment of peri-implantitis • Torus and tuberosity reduction (both hard and soft tissue) • Removal of epulis without scar/contraction of the vestibule • Treatment of chronic denture stomatitis • Residual ridge surgery/vestibuloplasty • Ovate pontic site formation • Long term management of the perio-prosthetic patient • Hard tissue lasers – are we ready to replace the • Frenectomy • Gingivectomy • Periodontal regeneration surgery/non membrane laser guided tissue regeneration

The participant will perform many of the above procedures during the wet lab on animal jaws. Upon completion of this course, participants will be familiar with the use of lasers for specific procedures found in a periodontal and prosthetics-driven practice. They will be able to incorporate this knowledge into a basis for determining which laser wavelength is most appropriate for their practice, and be able to incorporate hard and soft tissue laser dentistry into their practices first thing tomorrow morning.

Participation Course for Dental Hygienists Dentists are Invited

Seven Ways to Avoid Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (This is not just another Scaling and Root Planing course) OVERVIEW Why would dental professionals subject themselves to the possibility of carpal tunnel syndrome? Today’s dental professionals are at high risk for many neuromusculoskeletal problems. Traditionally, the highest percentage of entrapment neuropathies affecting the Dentist and their staff occur in the neck and back.

To help the individual cope with such issues, this course will address the universal needs of the office using new insights from orthopedics and ergonomics research. This new information will incorporate an instrumentation technique that can improve working conditions for those who perform scaling and root planing procedures. Course attendees will have the opportunity to learn the new components of the technique, especially the basic power strokes in instrumentation. At the end of the didactic session, each participant will complete a personal questionnaire, which becomes the key to understanding the application of the solutions to the 7 basic problems. The lecture will be followed by a hands-on session involving the biocentic simulator.

OBJECTIVES Participants will be able to recognize the following universal pitfalls: • The danger of the high wing • Recognizing improper body alignment • How pronation and extension of the hand can contribute to tennis elbow • How sustaining the same body positions and work motions over an extended period of time can contribute to pain • How universal gloves contribute to fatigue and pain of the thumb • How fatigue is caused by flexion and extension of the wrist as it is seen in some work motions Then participants will learn how the use of several options in the components of the instrumentation technique can lead to solutions for the neuromusculoskeletal problems including carpal tunnel syndrome PRESENTER HAROLD L. MEADOR, D.D.S., earned his dental degree at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston in 1952.

OCTOBER 10 Participation Course

Differential TMD Diagnoses and Treatments for the General Practitioner EDWARD F. WRIGHT, D.D.S, M.S.

OVERVIEW This participation course consists of a morning presentation and an afternoon of clinical activities. The morning presentation will first discuss initial patient evaluation and a recommended treatment protocol for integrating and utilizing multidisciplinary TMD therapies. This sequence will then be applied to 18 documented cases in which the patient's symptoms and clinical evaluation results are presented, and potential diagnoses and treatments will be discussed. Several of these cases are of patients who present with symptoms similar to TMD, but other diagnoses are determined, i.e., acute pulpalgia, sinusitis, etc. Participants will be taught to identify these disorders from TMD through history and clinical evaluation.

The afternoon clinical activities will involve working with a fellow participant, in which the masticatory and cervical musculature will be palpated, various jaw positions will be reviewed, and various splints brought to the course will be adjusted. The course parallels Dr. Wright's recently published TMD textbook which will be available for purchase at the course for a reduced price.

OBJECTIVES The course is designed to help dentists more cost effectively obtain maximal therapeutic benefit with their TMD patients. Participants will: • Understand which allied health professionals are able to help their TMD patients and when they would be most beneficial. • Learn to identify patients who generally will not respond well to traditional TMD therapy and how that can be changed. • Gain new insight of the prevalence of referred pain and the pain interconnection between the teeth, masticatory system, and cervical area. • Palpate the masticatory and cervical musculature of a fellow participant. • Practice mandibular manipulation techniques. • Adjust a splint that a fellow participant brings to the course.

HIV/AIDS: Necessary Information for the Dentist and the Dental Team ALICIA G. GALVAN, D.D.S.

OVERVIEW According to recent Center for Disease Control statistics, there are an estimated 1,039,000 to 1,185,000 persons in the United States living with HIV/AIDS, 24-27% of which are undiagnosed and unaware of their HIV infection. In many instances the health care professional who may be credited with helping a patient become aware of an HIV/AIDS diagnosis is the dentist, as many clinical indicators of HIV/AIDS initially manifest orally. Furthermore as new antiretroviral medications emerge, the HIV/AIDS patient is now managed as a chronic illness patient due to an extended lifespan associated with these medications. Dr. Galvan will discuss these topics as well as the dental management of the HIV/AIDS patient at different phases of the disease. Participants will also review potential drug interactions between antiretrovirals and medications commonly utilized and prescribed by dentists.

Management of Medical Emergencies in the Dental Office ERNEST E. VALDEZ, D.D.S.

OVERVIEW According to a published study, a dentist and staff, on average, will manage a medical emergency once every 1.4 years*. The same study reports that cardiac arrest in a dental office may occur once every 130 years*. It appears that medical emergencies occur infrequently in the dental office. It is for this very reason that it is easy for dentists and staff to forget simple medical emergency prevention and management techniques and systems. In a productive dental practice, medical emergency equipment may become dusty, emergency medications may expire, portable oxygen tanks become empty, emergency management systems are forgotten. Do you have enough equipment or too much equipment to manage medical emergencies in your dental office? What is the anticipated arrival time of EMS to your office? Do you AND your staff know how to manage the most common medical emergencies that can occur in your dental office? OBJECTIVES Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to: • Evaluate their medical emergency equipment, as well as, the office for efficiency of management of medical emergencies by bringing a schematic of the floor plan of their dental office, a list and photos of their medical equipment of their office. • Determine the response time of the emergency medical services to a medical emergency in their dental office. • Design a “Medical Emergency Management Plan” for the dental office. • Learn to recognize and manage the ten most common medical emergencies, as well as, acute myocardial infarction and cardiac arrest in the dental office. • Learn medical emergency preventive measures. PRESENTER ERNEST E. VALDEZ, D.D.S., received his DDS degree from The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, Dental School in 1993. He pursued a two year General Practice Residency at The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio which he completed in 2001. Dr. Valdez is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at the Dental School and maintains a practice at the UTHSCSA Dental School’s Dental Faculty Practice Clinic.

A Tooth’s Lifeline: Revisiting the Dental Pulp DAVID J. CLEMENT, D.D.S.

OVERVIEW All clinical procedures involving the manipulation of dentin (all restorative procedures) have some affect on the dental pulp. This course is designed for practitioners and staff to; 1) understand the effect accumulative procedures have on the pulp, 2) consider the pulp-dentin complex in preventive endodontics 3) aid the diagnosis of pathologic and normal pulpal conditions and 4) understand the difficulties of providing root canal therapy when the pulp is acutely and painfully inflamed.

Understanding the progressive nature of pulpal (and periapical) pathology is critical to recognizing the signs, symptoms, and etiology of pulpal disease. The clues to potential and urgent endodontic problems are often found by listening to patients. There are essential questions to ask that are designed to screen for and understand a patient’s potential endodontic problem. Pulp testing procedures are non-invasive and can be routinely performed by trained auxiliary personal. Once learned, these diagnostic skills are applicable to emergency endodontic diagnosis and therapy. Importantly these skills can also improve efficiency and productively in restorative treatment planning. The diagnosis and prognosis of coronal fractures, including the ‘Cracked Tooth Syndrome’, will also be discussed. In turn, you will have greater confidence recommending (and increase patient acceptance of) root canal therapy; especially in situations where x-rays are diagnostically inconclusive. Topics to be Discussed: • Anatomy and Physiology of the Dental Pulp • The ‘Pulp Dentin Complex’ • Physiologic vs. Pathologic dental pain • Effect of restorative procedures on the dental pulp • Vital Pulp Therapies • Importance of the ‘Chief Complaint’ in diagnosis • Diagnosis of Irreversible Acute and Chronic Pulpalgias • How to perform routine pulp testing? • Vitality testing vs. ‘Diagnostic Thermal Stimulation’ • What pulp testing results really mean? • Diagnosis and Treatment of Coronal Fractures; ‘Cracked Tooth Syndrome’ • Challenges of performing RCT on teeth with Vital Pulps

OBJECTIVES Participants will learn the principles and skills necessary for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of pathologic conditions of the vital dental pulp.

PRESENTER DAVID J. CLEMENT, D.D.S., received his dental degree from the University of Minnesota in 1981. He was a general dentist for nine years, an endodontic post graduate educator for three years, and had a specialty endodontic practice. Dr. Clement is an Associate Professor and Chair of the Department of Endodontics at Oklahoma University Health Science Center, College of Dentistry, Oklahoma City.

OUR PHILOSOPHY It is our firm belief that Continuing Dental Education courses should present the newest developments in patient evaluation, treatment, techniques, products, materials, and equipment even though some of them may be controversial. The Dental School does not endorse the content and philosophy of any Continuing Education course but offers various viewpoints to better serve the practicing dental professional.

Oral Cancer: From Diagnosis to Management MICHAELL A. HUBER, D.D.S.

OVERVIEW Successful management of the oral cancer patient requires a multidiscipline effort, in which the dental professional plays a critical role. An estimated 29,000 new cases of oral and pharyngeal will be diagnosed this year, many as a consequence of an oral screening provided by a dentist. Research over the past decade has produced several advances improving the profession’s ability to diagnose, treat, and manage the short and long-term consequences of oral cancer. Ultimately, however, successful cancer therapy often incurs life-long impairments, which may adversely affect the patient’s quality of life. As many of the impairments directly affect the oral cavity, the dentist will be frequently called upon to manage many of these impairments such as mucositis, xerostomia, increased caries,and disfigurement. This course will provide a review of the most contemporary approaches to manage the oral cancer patient, from diagnosis to management. OBJECTIVES • The participants will learn about: • Epidemiologic overview • Cancer prevention • Diagnostic/Screening modalities • Contemporary treatment strategies • During-treatment care • After-treatment care PRESENTER MICHAELL A. HUBER, D.D.S., received his dental degree from The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, Dental School in 1980. He continued with postgraduate training in Oral Medicine and Maxillofacial Radiology at the National Naval Dental Center, Bethesda, Maryland in 1986 and received a Certificate in Oral Medicine in 1988.

HIV/AIDS: Necessary Information for the Dental Team ALICIA G. GALVAN, D.D.S.

OVERVIEW According to recent Center for Disease Control statistics, there are an estimated 1,039,000 to 1,185,000 persons in the United States living with HIV/AIDS, 24-27% of which are undiagnosed and unaware of their HIV infection. In many instances the health care professional who may be credited with helping a patient become aware of an HIV/AIDS diagnosis is the dentist, as many clinical indicators of HIV/AIDS initially manifest orally. Furthermore as new antiretroviral medications emerge, the HIV/AIDS patient is now managed as a chronic illness patient due to an extended lifespan associated with these medications. Dr. Galvan will discuss these topics as well as the dental management of the HIV/AIDS patient at different phases of the disease. Participants will also review potential drug interactions between antiretrovirals and medications commonly utilized and prescribed by dentists. OBJECTIVES • History and mechanism of HIV/AIDS • Extraoral and intraoral clinical indicators of HIV/AIDS • Pertinent medical information that is necessary to dentally manage a patient with HIV/AIDS • The impact OF HIV/AIDS on the dental community PRESENTER AlLICIA G.

KEN PARRISH, D.M.D., M.S., PH.D.

OVERVIEW Many patients are living longer and do not find a complete removable denture acceptable. The demand for dental implants is rising exponentially and is now considered the standard of care. The practices that incorporate less expensive, immediate loading techniques will have the ability to offer the patient a great service. Complete rehabilitation of the upper and lower jaw can be costly and time consuming. A new technique that has been common in Europe for many years has crossed the Atlantic and is becoming very popular in the United States. This system is called the All-on-4™because it utilizes only four implants per arch for an immediate complete full fixed-detachable screw retained prosthesis. The prosthesis is similar to the Brånemark hybrid denture that was developed years ago. The system can be used in the maxilla, allowing you to avoid sinus grafting or in the mandible, to avoid having to place implants posterior to the symphysis. The prosthesis can be completed the same day as surgery or the next day to accommodate the lab processing time. OBJECTIVES The participant will learn about: • Scientific Basis for the All-on-4™ • Diagnosis and Pre-surgical Planning • Restorative Steps • Restorative Options • Diagnosis and Anatomic Requirements • Surgical Armamentarium and Implant Selection

PRESENTER KEN PARRISH, D.M.D., M.S., PH.D., graduated from the University of Louisville School of Dentistry in 1989.

The 25th Annual James P. Hollers Memorial Lectureship

As we honor Dr. James P. Hollers at the 25th Annual Lectureship, we commemorate his memory as a Texan with vision, numerous civic and military achievements, and as a dentist of national stature, having held the post of President of the American Dental Association. In celebrating his memory, we have invited another prominent lecturer, Dr. Vincent G. Kokich to San Antonio to present pertinent clinical and relevant information at the 25th Annual Hollers Lectureship. James P. Hollers, D.D.S.

One of the turning point events in the long history of San Antonio took place on June 5, 1969 in front of the Alamo under the blazing South Texas sun. Preston Smith, Governor of Texas, signed the legislative bill that authorized the construction of the Dental School in San Antonio as well as the Nursing School and The University of Texas at San Antonio. Proudly looking on, just over Governor Smith's shoulder, was Dr. Jim Hollers, who on that day saw his twenty year campaign to bring not only a Dental School, but also an entire Medical Center Complex to San Antonio, transformed from dream to reality. Without a doubt, the history of Medical Education in South Texas and what we now know as the South Texas Medical Center is intertwined with the history of Dr. Jim Hollers. If it's true that every great enterprise requires the right person, in the right place, at the right time…then Dr. Jim Hollers was the right person, in the right place, at the right time for San Antonio. All the hard work paid off. When the 1969 Texas Legislature met in January, there was little doubt that San Antonio would emerge with a Dental School. And the third piece of Dr. Hollers' dream fell into place just a few months later in the Alamo Plaza as he stood Governor Preston Smith signs bill authorizing the Dental School in San Antonio. (courtesy UTHSCSA) behind Preston Smith, watching the Governor sign the authorization. Planning for the Dental School moved ahead quickly, assisted in no small measure by the availability of millions of dollars of construction funds from the Department of Health Education and Welfare who agreed to pay two-thirds of the costs of the new

building. The original plan was to enroll the first Dental School class after the building was completed but the Acting Dean of the School, Dr. Victor Olson, who was also Dean of The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, Dental Branch, obtained enough additional funding Dr. Hollers shows Governor John Connally site for the from the Legislature to Medical School (courtesy the Institute of Texan Culture) open the School in the fall of 1970 in a temporary facility. Dr. Billy Rigsby came to San Antonio from Houston with Dr. Victor Olson and was in on the ground floor of planning in 1970. Drs. Olson, Rigsby, and many other faculty members who signed on in the first year worked round the clock to blue print the facility and ensure it was state-of-the-art.

The 25th Annual James P. Hollers Memorial Lectureship • November 14, 2008 Lecture Course Interdisciplinary Management of Anterior Esthetic Dilemmas: When, Why, and How? Vincent G. Kokich, D.D.S., M.S.D. OVERVIEW Orthodontists, periodontists, surgeons, and restorative dentists often have pre-determined goals regarding the esthetic relationship of teeth. But these goals may differ from the esthetic goals of the patient. A recent study, completed at the University of Washington, shows that lay persons may not notice certain problems that dentists and orthodontists strongly believe should be resolved. Therefore, problems such as midline discrepancy, unequal crown length, incisal plane asymmetry, “gummy” smile, altered incisal inclination, “black” triangles, and crown width discrepancies may not need correction. Is there a threshold level, where these discrepancies are noticed by both lay persons and dentists? Are there discrepancies that are not noticed by either dentists or nondentists and should remain untreated? If these problems are to be treated, what are the roles of the orthodontist, periodontist, and restorative dentist? How, where, and when should tooth position be altered to accommodate for future restorative dentistry? This presentation will use many clinical examples to: (1) identify the six major problems in anterior tooth position that produce esthetic discrepancies; (2) provide threshold levels that determine which problems should or should not be treated; (3) illustrate the method of treating each of these esthetic dilemmas (orthodontic, periodontal, surgical, or restorative); and (4) describe the interaction that is necessary among clinicians to establish the ideal result for even the most difficult esthetic discrepancies. OBJECTIVES After attending this course, participants will learn how to treat: MIDLINE DISCREPANCIES •threshold level for correction of midline deviation •keys to solving midline problems •relationship of axial inclination and midline discrepancies •method for assessing midline deviation •restoration of mediolateral inclination problems INCISAL PLANE ASYMMETRIES •threshold level for correction of incisal plane asymmetries •3 possible solutions (orthodontics, jaw surgery, restoration) •4 criteria to differentiate the appropriate solution CROWN WIDTH DISCREPANCIES •threshold level for correction of crown width problems •learn where to position peg-shaped laterals for ideal restoration UNEQUAL CROWN LENGTH •threshold level for correction of crown length problems •3 possible solutions - gingivectomy, orthodontic intrusion and restoration, or orthodontic extrusion and equilibration •learn the 4 criteria to determine the correct treatment choice “GUMMY SMILE” •method for evaluating gingiva to lip relationship •threshold level for correction of gingiva to lip relationship problems •3 treatment options (jaw surgery, periodontal surgery, intrusion) •5 criteria to determine when each solution is appropriate “BLACK SPACES” •threshold level for correction of open gingival embrasures •3 causes - tooth shape, tooth position, periodontal defects •learn how “black spaces” can be corrected PRESENTER Vincent G. Kokich, D.D.S., M.S.D., obtained his dental degree from the University of Washington’s School of Dentistry in 1971, followed by his MS and Certificate in Orthodontics in 1974. He is a Professor in the Department of Orthodontics at the University of Washington in Seattle. He also maintains a private orthodontic practice in Tacoma, Washington.

OVERVIEW Infections present a significant hazard in the dental environment. Although protection of the patient is an obvious priority, oral healthcare personnel are also vulnerable to exposure. The intent of this course is to set forth an Infection Control/Exposure Control Protocol to minimize the transmission of infections in the clinical process (for the protection of patients and oral health care personnel alike) via direct contact with blood, saliva, and other secretions; via indirect contact with contaminated instruments, operatory equipment, and environmental surfaces; and via airborne contaminant's, such as droplet spatter and aerosols of infectious body fluids. OBJECTIVES Participants in this course will be introduced to evidence-based information that will facilitate compliance with 29 CFR Part 1910.1030, Occupational Exposure to Bloodborne Pathogens, Final Rule (Federal Register 56(235): 64004-182, 1991 and the implementation of recommendations made by other federal, state, and local agencies and professional organizations. In addition to fulfilling your annual OSHA requirements upon completion of this course, oral healthcare personnel should be able to: • Understand the rational for the need for an Infection Control/Exposure Control Protocol. • Develop and implement an practical Infection Control/Exposure Control Protocol appropriate for a particular oral healthcare setting, which include the following essential elements: • Education and training; Standard precautions Vaccinations • Personal protective equipment; Work practice and engineering controls • Environmental infection control; Post exposure evaluation and follow-up • Medical records; Medical conditions and work restrictions

Endodontics is Really a “Slam Dunk” OVERVIEW This course is designed to bring you an informative and fun filled day of endodontics. There will be no magic, no removal of separated instruments and no blasting through calcified canals–well almost none. We want your fee income to go up…not down! Dr. Lebby will bring to you the practitioner, the principles necessary to perform predictable and effective single visit endodontic therapy.

You will learn endodontics from beginning to end by seeing step-by-step procedures, illustrations and case presentations that encompass all current endodontic concepts, both conventional and high tech. You will learn how to incorporate these techniques profitably and efficiently into your practice.

There will be a microscope demonstration, and you will participate in a hands-on, which will afford you a seamless transition between shaping and cleansing the root canal system and predictable carrier based obturation. OBJECTIVES This course will enable the dentist to understand: • An intelligent diagnosis and thereby determine which tooth requires Endodontic intervention. • Perform a painless Endodontic procedure, and be able to profoundly anesthetize the offending tooth/teeth. • To isolate any tooth utilizing innovative and unique rubber dam techniques i.e. the “reverse double clamp technique.” • Be able to easily gain coronal and radicular direct straight line access, and be able to quickly and accurately determine the exact working length in a matter of seconds without the use of radiographs. • To optimally cleanse and shape the root canal system by utilizing rotary instruments, enabling you to place a thermoplastic seal quickly and efficiently.

Esthetic and Functional Considerations in Implant Dentistry

ALFONSO MONARRES, D.D.S., M.S. OVERVIEW The high success of dental implants has influenced our contemporary treatment plan philosophy regarding the restoration of the severely compromised dentition and the replacement of missing teeth.

The demands of our population, the advances in implant surfaces and designs and the recent introduction of 3D Imaging and CAD/CAM technology have helped to improve our current surgical and restorative protocols by providing high predictability, shortening treatment time and facilitating the fabrication of implant prostheses.

Predictable function with esthetic results are key elements for success with dental implant therapy. This course will present the basic concepts and guidelines that help make the placement and restoration of implants a predictable treatment option that offers both esthetics and function to our patients. OBJECTIVES • Understand the importance of diagnosis, treatment planning and treatment sequencing in implant dentistry. • Use of contemporary diagnostic tools and 3D Imaging. • Implant prostheses for the partially edentulous patient. • Basic concepts for the ideal implant placement and restoration in the esthetic zone. • Guidelines and techniques for immediate placement, immediate provisionalization and immediate loading of dental implants. • Implant prostheses for the edentulous patient • CAD/CAM technology for dental implant restorations. • Occlusal considerations in implant Prosthodontics PRESENTER ALFONSO MONARRES, D.D.S., M.S., received his DDS degree from The UAC in Torreon, Mexico. He then completed a three-year post-doctoral program in Prosthodontics, a one year Fellowship in Implant Dentistry and earned his Master of Science degree in Biomaterials at the School of Dental Medicine of the State University of New York at Buffalo (UB).

Dr. Monarres was a Clinical Instructor in Fixed and Removable Prosthodontics at UB School of Dental Medicine. He is a Clinical Associate Professor of the department of Prosthodontics at The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, Dental School and maintains a private practice limited to Implant, Esthetic and Prosthetic Dentistry.

Why Should General Dentist Learn to Surgically Place and Restore Dental Implants? CHARLES “DUKE” ALDRIDGE, D.D.S., MAGD, MICOI

This course is designed to help those clinicians who are interested in learning how to place dental implants get started and develop a passion that will help rejuvenate their love for dentistry.

OVERVIEW

This course will enable the dentist to understand: · Rationale behind General Dentist learning to surgically place and restore implant(s). · The number of patients in a typical General Dentist practice who are forgoing implant treatment because of interaction with multiple clinicians. · The reality of being present at the surgery if you are not performing it yourself. · Local Anesthesia techniques for dental implant surgery. · Defining type of bone density and success rates in same. · Typical treatment planning and review of criteria sheet to help guide you. · Bone grafting – What, when, where and how · The use of membrane, tacks, screws, etc. · Surgical anatomy – What you really need to know – The real DANGER zones · How to identify those patients in your practice that may be interested in dental implants. · How to introduce dental implants to your patients and make them realize the benefits over conventional fixed prosthesis. Discuss longevity of both. · Implant packets that you will be provided with that have proven to be very successful in introducing dental implants (consent forms, options, diagnosis forms, etc.) · Discussion of the importance of a dental implant coordinator. · Discussion of the financial benefits of the surgical aspect of dental implants versus referring to specialist. “You will be shocked.” · Identifying the CDT implant codes for billing purposes. · Discussion of the typical “scare” tactics employed by very few specialist for those dentists who want to get started in implementing dental implant surgery. · Where to start in your implant training · How to obtain “live” surgical training with you performing the surgery. · Review of cases as performed by Dr. Aldridge – The good, the bad and the ugly. · How to identify which cases you should start with. · How to get yourself out of difficult situations when you are performing surgery and/or restoring dental implants. · Identifying the “high risk” medical patient. · The importance of surgical guide stents. · Immediate loading – Is it possible and where and when. · Performing immediate implant insertion after extraction · Extraction technique · Site preservation for future implant placement · The importance of learning how to perform Connective Tissue grafts. · Cone Beam Technology and its future impact, if not now. When should I use it? Radiation exposure of Medical Grade CT scans performed in hospitals.

DECEMBER 13 Participation Course

Differential TMD Diagnoses and Treatments for the General Practitioner EDWARD F. WRIGHT, D.D.S, M.S.

OVERVIEW This participation course consists of a morning presentation and an afternoon of clinical activities. The morning presentation will first discuss initial patient evaluation and a recommended treatment protocol for integrating and utilizing multidisciplinary TMD therapies. This sequence will then be applied to 18 documented cases in which the patient's symptoms and clinical evaluation results are presented, and potential diagnoses and treatments will be discussed. Several of these cases are of patients who present with symptoms similar to TMD, but other diagnoses are determined, i.e., acute pulpalgia, sinusitis, etc. Participants will be taught to identify these disorders from TMD through history and clinical evaluation. The afternoon clinical activities will involve working with a fellow participant, in which the masticatory and cervical musculature will be palpated, various jaw positions will be reviewed, and various splints brought to the course will be adjusted. The course parallels Dr. Wright's recently published TMD textbook which will be available for purchase at the course for a reduced price.

OBJECTIVES The course is designed to help dentists more cost effectively obtain maximal therapeutic benefit with their TMD patients. Participants will: • Understand which allied health professionals are able to help their TMD patients and when they would be most beneficial. • Learn to identify patients who generally will not respond well to traditional TMD therapy and how that can be changed. • Gain new insight of the prevalence of referred pain and the pain interconnection between the teeth, masticatory system, and cervical area. • Palpate the masticatory and cervical musculature of a fellow participant. • Practice mandibular manipulation techniques. • Adjust a splint that a fellow participant brings to the course. PRESENTER EDWARD F. WRIGHT, D.D.S., M.S., is an assistant professor at the University of Texas Health Science Center–San Antonio. He completed a 1-year general dentistry residency, a 2-year TMJ and Craniofacial Pain Fellowship, and a 2-year TMD research fellowship.

Restorative Materials: What, Where, When and How CHARLES W. WAKEFIELD, D.D.S.

OVERVIEW This program will review current restorative materials and the rationale for selection and clinical use of the most appropriate material in varying clinical situations. The confusion between marketing and evidence-based dentistry will be made clear. Aspects to be discussed include selection of adhesive systems; microfill, hybrid and nanofilled composites; glass ionomers, resin modified glass ionomers and compomers as liners, luting agents and restoratives; information and direct pulp capping with calcium hydroxide or adhesive agents; esthetic alternatives such as indirect composite, porcelain inlays/onlays/crowns and their clinical techniques. The application of color in dentistry, principles of smile design and clinical restoration of cosmetic cases for the general dentist will be described and illustrated in detail. OBJECTIVES • Amalgam-Types, new developments regarding mercury • Cast gold – Is this still the best? • Adhesive systems – Is the latest generation better for all adhesive procedures? • Glass ionomers – Conventional, reinforced, condensable, luting • Compomers – Why would anyone ever buy these? • Composites – Which ones should I use for different procedures? • Esthetic dentistry – Composites, PFM’s or full porcelain – Basics of planning multidisciplinary esthetic cases and principles of Smile Design. • Use of color in dentistry and application to shade matching. • Light curing units – High intensity or low? Fast or slow? QTH or LED? Which is best? PRESENTER CHARLES W. WAKEFIELD, D.D.S., attended the UCLA School of Dentistry.

Periodontal Disease Linked to Systemic Diseases DONALD P. CALLAN, BS, BA, D.D.S

TPO NED TO A UGU ST 7 , 201 0

OVERVIEW Evidence suggests periodontitis can be a systemic exposure that may contribute to the development or progression of other systemic diseases and conditions. Similarities of microbial populations have been shown to exist between dental implants and natural teeth. Periodontal disease, peri-implantitis, and crestal bone loss associated with teeth and dental implants are a significant clinical phenomenon. These conditions will often compromise long-term prognosis, esthetics, function of teeth, oral and systemic health of patients. The purpose of this presentation is to provide evidence based information to evaluate the relationship of periodontal diseases, peri-implantitis and systemic diseases. Second, is to compare surgically, clinically, and radiographically vertical and horizontal bone loss patterns of natural teeth and dental implants and determine if a predictable pattern exists and then determine the best treatment. OBJECTIVES • To identify systemic links of periodontal disease. • To understand the pathways of periodontal bacterial transfer. • To identify systemic conditions that may be subject to periodontal pathogens. • To identify the early signs of implant failure. • To understand why bone loss is occurring about the dental implant. • To select the proper treatment to correct the bone loss problem. • To determine the time and sequence for treatment. • To defend the procedure clinically, functionally, and histologically. PRESENTER DONALD P. CALLAN, D.D.S., received his dental degree in 1975 and a Certificate in Periodontics from the University of Missouri at Kansas City in 1978. Dr. Calllan maintains a private practice limited to Periodontics with an emphasis on tissue regeneration and implant dentistry in Little Rock, Arkansas.

Seven Ways to Avoid Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (This is not just another Scaling and Root Planing course) OVERVIEW Why would dental professionals subject themselves to the possibility of carpal tunnel syndrome? Today’s dental professionals are at high risk for many neuromusculoskeletal problems. Traditionally, the highest percentage of entrapment neuropathies affecting the Dentist and their staff occur in the neck and back.

To help the individual cope with such issues, this course will address the universal needs of the office using new insights from orthopedics and ergonomics research. This new information will incorporate an instrumentation technique that can improve working conditions for those who perform scaling and root planing procedures. Course attendees will have the opportunity to learn the new components of the technique, especially the basic power strokes in instrumentation. At the end of the didactic session, each participant will complete a personal questionnaire, which becomes the key to understanding the application of the solutions to the 7 basic problems. The lecture will be followed by a hands-on session involving the biocentic simulator.

OBJECTIVES Participants will be able to recognize the following universal pitfalls: • The danger of the high wing • Recognizing improper body alignment • How pronation and extension of the hand can contribute to tennis elbow • How sustaining the same body positions and work motions over an extended period of time can contribute to pain • How universal gloves contribute to fatigue and pain of the thumb • How fatigue is caused by flexion and extension of the wrist as it is seen in some work motions Then participants will learn how the use of several options in the components of the instrumentation technique can lead to solutions for the neuromusculoskeletal problems including carpal tunnel syndrome PRESENTER HAROLD L. MEADOR, D.D.S., earned his dental degree at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston in 1952. He practiced general dentistry for seven years and went onto graduate training in Periodontics at Baylor Dental College which he completed in 1960.

Dental Digital Diagnosis and Treatment: New Tools for Predictable Results STEPHEN M. SCHMITT, D.D.S., M.S.

OVERVIEW Dental treatment in the 21st Century has advanced to a high level of predictability and in many ways become the “Golden Age of Dentistry.” New techniques not only repair dental disease but also create beautiful and pleasing smiles. Unfortunately, the challenge for any dentist is to be able to understand what is wrong and to determine the proper course of treatment. Advances in digital imaging, computer aided design, Internet communication, digital manufacturing and new materials have made an ideal opportunity to simplify the diagnostic process, improve outcomes and once again make the practicing general dentist, the leader of the restorative team.

Diagnosis of Early Dental Caries

BENNETT AMAECHI, B.D.S.

OVERVIEW The importance of finding and treating decay in its earliest stages is universally acknowledged. Early caries detection is the key to the practice of minimally invasive dentistry, a treatment concept that is growing in popularity, and gives dentist the opportunity to treat caries atraumatically, without anesthesia, with minimal reduction, and without rotary instrumentation; a much better option for any patient. Furthermore, caries being a dynamic process, an efficient method or device is needed to quantitatively or visually monitor and record the changing activities and severity of a caries lesion over time, especially during treatment. This continuing education course will offer an overview of the up-to-date information on the methods of (1) early detection of caries both visually and using modern technologies, and (2) quantitative and visual monitoring and recording of early caries activities. The need for early detection of dental caries as well as the clinical prerequisites and criteria for caries detection and diagnosis will be discussed. OBJECTIVES The objective of this forum is to acquaint the participants with the knowledge, through a review, on; • The need for early diagnosis of dental caries • The importance of new technologies to aid early diagnosis of caries • The clinical prerequisites and criteria for early caries diagnosis • The technique of diagnosing early caries on different tooth surfaces • The criteria for monitoring caries activities • The new ICDAS method of recording the severity of caries lesion • The new technologies available for early caries detection, including their functions, principles of operation and limitations/drawbacks. PRESENTER BENNETT T. AMAECHI, BDS, MS, PHD, FADI, received his dental degree at the College of Health sciences of the University of Ife in Nigeria, MS in prosthetic dentistry and dental implantology at Guy’s Hospital, London in United Kingdom, and PhD in Cariology at the University of Liverpool in United Kingdom.

Lecture Course

ERNEST E. VALDEZ, D.D.S.

OVERVIEW According to a published study, a dentist and staff, on average, will manage a medical emergency once every 1.4 years*. The same study reports that cardiac arrest in a dental office may occur once every 130 years*. It appears that medical emergencies occur infrequently in the dental office. It is for this very reason that it is easy for dentists and staff to forget simple medical emergency prevention and management techniques and systems. In a productive dental practice, medical emergency equipment may become dusty, emergency medications may expire, portable oxygen tanks become empty, emergency management systems are forgotten. Do you have enough equipment or too much equipment to manage medical emergencies in your dental office? What is the anticipated arrival time of EMS to your office? Do you AND your staff know how to manage the most common medical emergencies that can occur in your dental office? OBJECTIVES Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to: • Evaluate their medical emergency equipment, as well as, the office for efficiency of management of medical emergencies by bringing a schematic of the floor plan of their dental office, a list and photos of their medical equipment of their office. • Determine the response time of the emergency medical services to a medical emergency in their dental office. • Design a “Medical Emergency Management Plan” for the dental office. • Learn to recognize and manage the ten most common medical emergencies, as well as, acute myocardial infarction and cardiac arrest in the dental office. • Learn medical emergency preventive measures. PRESENTER ERNEST E. VALDEZ, D.D.S., earned his DDS from The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio in 1993. He is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, Dental School. TIME Check-in & Breakfast: D.S.

Management of Dental Trauma LINA CARDENAS, D.D.S., M.S., PH.D.

OVERVIEW Do you like skiing? For all of us here at this wonderful ski resort, the good news is that we all will get great CE education with some fun entertainment and skiing. The bad news is that dental trauma does happen. The emergency management of dental trauma is crucial for the prognosis of the involved teeth. And since dental trauma does not give us the opportunity to re-schedule the patient until we go back to our books and the available literature, we all need to be prepared to handle these emergencies. Dental trauma is an important part of the General and Pediatric Dentistry practice. Current research has led to a better understanding of the healing mechanisms that translate into better clinical protocols for the management of trauma. The International Association of Dental Traumatology (IADT) has reviewed its guidelines in the last year. The Academy of Pediatric Dentistry has also published newer guidelines for the management of dental trauma at the beginning of 2008. There are also newer guidelines from the American Association of Endodontics (AAE). A review of the current guidelines (as mentioned above) for the management of dental trauma in the primary and mainly in the permanent dentition will be presented. Easy-to-use decision analysis and protocols for the emergency treatment as well as follow-up and referral needs are discussed. OBJECTIVES • Present a systematic way of gathering trauma history • Review the classification of traumatic dental injuries • Discuss the diagnosis, emergency treatment and follow-up in primary and permanent tooth trauma according to type of injury • Present and discuss clinical cases of primary and permanent tooth trauma • Present uses of newer materials such and MTA for complicated crown fractures. • Show some new tendencies and research trend in this area. PRESENTER LINA M. CARDENAS, D.D.S., M.S., Ph.D., received her dental degree at the Institute of Health Sciences, CES. She obtained her PhD in Dental Science (combined with Pediatric Dentistry) from Nagasaki University, Japan, where she was a recipient of a scholarship from the Japanese Ministry of Education. She also received a Master of Science at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in a combined program with Pediatric Dentistry. She participated in the core course of the prestigious Robert Wood Johnson Clinical Scholar Program in Clinical Research and Epidemiology at the University of North Carolina.
