FCE5: Advances in Diagnosis and Treatment Planning Using Traditional and CBCT Technology: An Interdisciplinary Perspective
10:15–11:45 a.m. Program Track: Interdisciplinary Therapy Moderator: Purnima Kumar Speakers: Manish Garala and E. Todd Scheyer
Recent advances in imaging technology in conjunction with established clinical and evidence based philosophies, can undoubtedly provide greater predictability to endodontic and/or periodontal therapy.
Collaboration between both specialties and the restorative dentist provides a systematic approach that eliminates the uncertainty surrounding diagnosis and treatment planning. The advent of cone beam technology further enhances our ability to visualize, diagnose, and treat in three-dimensions, removing the guesswork associated with the use of conventional one or two-dimensional imaging. Before a decision is made to save or extract teeth, we can now collaboratively develop a diagnosis and treatment plan with multiple options that the patient can visualize and comprehend to make an informed decision. Three- dimensional planning software can allow the clinician an opportunity to virtually perform procedures, resulting in a detailed plan that sets a new standard in performance and accountability. Endodontic diagnostic testing my help to identify the presence of endodontic infection as an etiology for observed bone loss.
Educational Objectives:
• Review basic periodontal/endodontic diagnostic algorithms.
• Learn about the power of CBCT as a planning tool.
• Grasp how treatment planning in periodontal/endodontic cases can result in new levels of predictability.
FCE6: Predictable Surgical Outcomes for Periodontal and Bone Regeneration: Flap Designs, Defect Management, and Wound Closure
10:15–11:45 a.m.
Program Track: Treatment of Inflammatory Periodontal Diseases
Moderator: Binnaz Leblebicioglu Speakers: Jonathan H. Do and Henry Greenwell
Clinical outcomes following guided periodontal tissue and bone regeneration procedures heavily depend on surgical techniques and well-controlled wound healing. Defect management is a significant challenge due to several factors including deficiency in existing hard and soft tissues, limitations in blood supply, as well as difficulties in obtaining and maintaining wound closure. In addition, the need for a shorter healing period with less scaring and better esthetic outcomes is a driving force for innovations such as minimally invasive surgical techniques for regenerative procedures. This course aims to discuss surgical modalities used to improve periodontal tissue and bone regeneration clinical outcomes.
Educational Objectives:
• Consider factors affecting clinical outcomes following periodontal tissue/bone regeneration surgeries.
• Integrate new surgical modalities in relation to flap designs, defect management, and wound closure.
• Comprehend short- and long-term clinical success of regenerative surgical procedures.
