The Magic of Prevention

William-Paveletz
DR. WILLIAM PAVELETZ, DMD

COURSE DESCRIPTON:

Caries infection has increased in young adult populations and continues to be a major disease for children. This course discusses the impact of Nano Technology on today’s preventative and restorative materials. Attendees will have a “hands-on forum” to provide their dental teams with new skills on today’s desensitizers, sealants, and fluoride treatments to combat patient’s current symptoms and prevention of future issues

LEARNING OBJECTIVE:

  • Gain an understanding of new research findings that can contribute to the evidence for the application of varnish with chemotherapeutic fluoride treatment.
  • Understand the findings of recent research exploring how dental practitioners are using scientific evidence in their patient treatment decisions and patient counselling.
  • Learn methods of applying Xylitol containing based fluoride treatments and Nano Hybrid Sealants and their effectiveness on today’s patients.
  • Understand the correct CDT coding procedure for hygiene procedures and review the “current changes” to desensitizing and home use” fluoridation treatments.

Long-Term Prevention of Peri-Implant Complications: Ceramic and Titanium Implants

WILLIAM PAVELETZ, DMD

COURSE DESCRIPTON:

To prevent peri-implant complications, professional in-office assessment, maintenance, and home-care recommendations are vital. For long-term implant success clinicians need to detect early signs of implant complications, diagnose any complications to provide early intervention and be able to perform professional in-office maintenance treatment. This course will follow the global healthy implant initiative for ceramic and titanium implants based on Susan’s Clinical White Paper: Long-term prevention of peri-implant complications and textbook: Peri-Implant Therapy for the Dental Hygienist: Clinical Guide to Maintenance and Disease Complications.
