Schedule of Events
Sunday, Sept. 10, 2017 CE4: The Periodontal-Systemic Connection: Current State-of- the-Art
2:30–5 p.m. Program Track: Periodontal-Systemic Relationships Moderator: Robert J. Genco
Speakers: Purnima Kumar and Angelo Mariotti
This course will address the role of systemic inflammation in chronic diseases as well as the role of oral microbes in systemic conditions associated with periodontal disease, especially cardiovascular disease. The influences of the host genetic and environment factors on oral health, especially as they affect the oral microbiota, and the overall effects of these interactions on conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and diabetes will be discussed. Recent findings related to the effects of periodontal intervention on overall health care costs will be presented. Rationale for integrating periodontal disease management in overall health care, focusing on diabetes, and periodontal disease will also be discussed.
Educational Objectives:
• Acquire an up-to-date understanding of the role of systemic inflammation in chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
• Explain to what extent systemic inflammation can explain the link between periodontal disease and systemic diseases.
• List the important interventions between host genotype, environmental factors, and the oral microbiota as they affect oral and related systemic diseases.
• Provide a basis for understanding the effects of oral care on overall costs of health care.
CE5: Evolution of Soft Tissue Grafting as Told by the Masters
2:30–5 p.m.
Program Track: Periodontal Plastic/Oral Reconstructive Surgery Moderators: Joan Otomo-Corgel
Speakers: Burton Langer, Michael K. McGuire, and Preston D. Miller, Jr.
Join this “must-attend” course to see from whence we came, where we are now, and where are we going. Three masters of soft tissue grafting, who developed many of the current soft tissue grafting procedures, will present concept to design and clinical application to precision modifications. They will expound on the development of the subepithelial connective tissue autograft to current modifications. A 30+

year retrospective view of how the Miller Classification of marginal tissue recession has changed will be provided. Also, innovations in “traditional” soft tissue grafting that have been refined and modified to become less invasive and more esthetic will be discussed. A contrast and review of alternatives for autogenous grafts in relation to clinical outcomes, patient based outcomes, root surface attachment, and long-term stability will be reviewed.
Educational Objectives: • Review the objectives and goals for gingival augmentation.
• Recognize the development of the subepithelial connective tissue graft to current modifications of the original technique to treat severe recession defects.
• Illustrate the changes over 30 years of the Miller Classification, plus clinical application.
• Present the advantages of live-cell devices, growth factors, and biologically-based devices.
CE6: Cost-Effective Techniques to Grow Your Practice Part 1
2:30–5 p.m. Program Track: Practice Development and Management Moderator: Jeanne M. Salcetti Speaker: Lee Sheldon
The periodontal practice is challenged by unprecedented business challenges. Many practitioners are struggling to find answers in a shrinking dental market as well as a shrinking referral base. This two-part series details successful strategies that they have been implemented to create periodontal practice growth. Just when you think you have tried everything, this course will show you cost- effective strategies designed to enhance your practice with improvements to achieve growth.
Educational Objectives:
• Recognize the new periodontal marketplace and who is your patient.
• Consider the diagnosis and ethics in terms of what is best for the patient.
• Create a win-win environment between the restorative doctor and the patient.
• List three simple tactics that you and your staff can do to assure that the patient will schedule with you.
• Gain insight into how staff can improve the quality and quantity of “The Treatment Plan.”
