Ticketed Courses/Events
Student/New Periodontist Series
New speaker(s) will be participating in the session
New for 2017 Schedule of Events Tuesday, Sept. 12, 2017
FCE16: Life Under the Gum Line 10:15–11:45 a.m. Program Track: Periodontal-Systemic Relationships Moderator: Thiago Morelli Speaker: Richard J. Lamont
This course will cover microbial colonization of the subgingival compartment, and the development of polymicrobial communities. Within microbial communities, multi-level physical and chemical communication systems among constituent organisms can lead to polymicrobial synergy and elevate the pathogenic potential of the entire community. Functional specialization of community participants has given rise to several newly appreciated categories that extend traditional ideas of commensalism and pathogenicity. The integration of these concepts into a model of periodontal disease pathogenesis, the Polymicrobial Synergy and Dysbiosis model, will be discussed.
Educational Objectives:
• Review the parameters that define the composition of the subgingival microbiota.
• Recognize the differing pathogenic potential of organisms and communities.
• Appreciate the interface between the host inflammatory response and microbial challenge.
• Comprehend the basis of the Polymicrobial Synergy and Dysbiosis model of periodontal disease pathogenesis.
FCE17: Innovative Treatment Planning Using Orthodontics
10:15–11:45 a.m. Program Track: Interdisciplinary Therapy Moderator: Roger Wise
Speakers: Marianna Evans and Richard D. Roblee
A key goal of interdisciplinary dentistry is the fabrication of maintainable, aesthetic, and functional prostheses that preserve the health of the teeth and soft tissue. Many complex interdisciplinary problems involve deficiencies or discrepancies in the dentoalveolar complex that can prolong treatment time and compromise overall outcomes. Surgically facilitated orthodontic therapy (SFOT) in combination with skeletal anchorage can shorten treatment times, modify vertical relationships and enhance the development of the arch form, alveolar bone and soft tissue to ideally address these issues. Special focus will be given to utilizing high-tech clear aligners instead of traditional orthodontic appliances to add a new and exciting dimension to SFOT while significantly increasing patient treatment acceptance. Communication and collaboration between the restorative dentist and
the periodontist/orthodontist will be addressed utilizing challenging clinical cases.
Educational Objectives:
• Apply interdisciplinary diagnostics and treatment planning for the SFOT patient.
• Combine hard and soft tissue grafting with selective corticotomies.
• Utilize skeletal anchorage with SFOT to modify vertical relationships.
• Recognize high-tech clear aligners as an exciting new appliance option for SFOT.
• Explain the sequence of inter-related phenomena that lead to malocclusion, gingival recession, and compromised upper airway function.
FCE18: The Socket/Shield/Root Membrane Technique for Alveolar Preservation
10:15–11:45 a.m. Program Track: Regeneration/Tissue Engineering Moderator: José R. Mellado Speakers: David Garber and Barry P. Levin
Immediate implant placement has grown in its frequency and efficacy. Though immensely successful in terms of osseointegration, long-term stability of esthetics can be unpredictable. Numerous methods of tissue preservation and augmentation are implemented to preserve satisfactory results. The Socket Shield technique is utilized as a means of limiting the resultant cascade of esthetic compromises and alveolar ridge resorption that follow every tooth extraction. Participants will gain an in-depth review of the new innovative Partial Extraction Therapy (PET) surgical armamentarium and the step- by-step technique demonstrating its simplicity and effectiveness in contemporary implant dentistry. This presentation will demonstrate procedures used to achieve long-term healthy and esthetic success for immediate implant placement.
Educational Objectives:
• Explain the unpredictable physiologic changes that occur after immediate implant therapy is performed.
• Recognize how techniques utilizing allogeneic and xenogeneic materials can increase predictability in maintaining esthetic success for immediate implant therapy.
• Assess the value in immediate provisionalization in the esthetic zone combined with augmentation procedures.
