GS5: Emerging Regenerative Approaches to Periodontal Reconstruction 2 - 4 p.m. Tissue Engineering and Hard Tissue Reconstruction Moderators: Jill Bashutski and Hidemi Kurihara
Speakers: William Giannobile, Bradley McAllister, and Shinya Murakami
Repair of alveolar bone defects caused by development abnormalities, trauma, or disease is a major goal of oral- reconstructive therapy. The field of tissue engineering combines advances in materials, science, and biology to repair tissues and organs. One of the most promising treatments to stimulate periodontal regeneration is the use of cytokines and other growth factors. Over the past
decade investigators have utilized growth factor biologics, barriers, and bone replacement grafts to restore lost tooth support due to damage of the alveolus. This presentation will highlight emerging technologies in cytokines such as Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF-2), 3-D printing, bioprinting, biomaterials, and growth factor biologics for application to the clinical arena.
Educational Objectives:
• Identify the principles involved in tissue engineering of tooth- and implant-supporting periodontal structures such as bone, periodontal ligament, gingival, and cementum.
• Gain the latest innovations in periodontal tissue engineering, including cytokine and stem cell therapies, as well as the mechanisms of action of growth factors to repair periodontal and dental implant bone defects.
• Describe the modes of action, indications, and limitations of both patient-specific and implant-specific factors affecting treatment outcomes of regenerative therapies.
• Determine the potential of new emerging therapies such as FGF-2, stem cells 3-D printing technology, and interactive scaffold matrices.
Saturday, Oct. 27 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. Includes lunch $149 per person
2018 Dental Hygiene Symposium
Provided in collaboration with the American Dental Hygienists Association and the Canadian Dental Hygienists Association
All hygienists are invited to attend this year’s new and improved Dental Hygiene Symposium. Three unique sessions led by seasoned periodontal and dental hygiene experts will cover the latest topics in periodontics, including:
New evidence in perio-systemic interactions Brian L. Mealey, DDS, MS and Mia L. Geisinger, DDS, MS
Using the new classification of periodontal and peri-implant diseases in case management Kenneth S. Kornman, DDS, PhD
The critical role of the hygienist in interdisciplinary care Nancy Adair, RDH
See page 39 for more information on this dynamic and interactive program.
Bundle and save! Pre-register for both the Dental Hygiene Symposium and full Annual Meeting for $600—a savings of US$100!
