I’m Out, I’m Ready; I Owe That Much?

Why are we getting fatter? What food is healthy? What food is unhealthy? Why are so many chronic diseases, allergies, and disabilities plaguing us (including periodontitis)? What can we learn from the current scientific and medical literature? Biochemical pathways and objective science leads to conclusions or directions that often contradict common recommendations. Learn how history, bias, and culture have all played roles in the myths we know today. This lecture will be surprisingly humorous and eye-opening.

CLINICAL PEARLS Full Arch Fixed Implant Restoration Principles and Techniques of Restoring the Full Arch on Implants Michael D. Brooks, DMD Thursday, June 11 from 8:30 a.m. - 10:00 a.m. CDE Credits: 1.5 Hours Room: Hyatt, Cascade Tower, Auditorium The modern day dental implant has been shown to be an effective treatment modality for the replacement of missing teeth with removable and fixed restoration. The utilization of dental implants has evolved over the years from its beginnings as a full arch restorative treatment. Although the concept of full arch replacement with a fixed implant retained prosthesis has been around for nearly 50 years, the treatment option is still often misunderstood by patients and clinicians alike. We will discuss principles and techniques behind fixed implant retained full arch restorations, particularly the All-On-4 concept. Register online today - www.wsda.org/pndc · 23

Cases will be shown to demonstrate various techniques. The conclusions of the 2014 European workshop in periodontics covering mucogingival therapy will also be discussed.

Thursday Lecture, ECLS · Thursday, June 11

Learning Objectives: • Understand options for treating gingival recession • Learn when to consider grafting and when to consider alternatives • Learn how to estimate the amount of root coverage attainable • Understand risk factors for progression of recession Dr. Weinstein teaches as an affiliate faculty member at the University of Washington and maintains a private practice in downtown Seattle.

This first part of a two-part lecture relates the most fundamental and unchanging endodontic issues—pulp, dentin, root, and root canal anatomy—to principles of treatment, simplifying our choices among evolving procedural technologies. A diagnostic regimen is shown that can definitively rule endo in or out, and if pain is of endo etiology, it can definitively discover which tooth is referring the pain. The use of cone beam CT imaging is shown as a diagnostic as well as a treatment planning tool, finishing with a logical decision tree clinicians can use when considering whether to save the tooth with further treatment or to replace it with an implant fixture. Learning Objectives: • Understand the influence of endodontic anatomy on pulp degeneration and how the complexities of root canal systems dictate treatment to their full apical and lateral extents • Understand how 3D and 2D radiography with thermal pulp testing can deliver 100 percent diagnostic confidence • Understand how to treatment plan emergency care, endo vs implant, and how you are going to successfully invade patient’s root canal systems Dr. Buchanan is founder of Dental Education Laboratories.

Caries Frustrated by Dental Caries? A Simple Approach to Successfully Managing the Disease V. Kim Kutsch, DMD Friday, June 12 from 8:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. CDE Credits: 3 Hours Room: Meydenbauer 406 Dental caries is a complex biofilm mediated disease, significantly influenced by pH. Caries risk assessment (CAMBRA) represents a new standard of care that gives practitioners an advantage at controlling this destructive disease. Risk modifications, in addition to new products that help neutralize the acidic pH during the treatment process, restore a healthy biofilm, promote remineralization, and stop the decay cycle, will be explored. While CAMBRA appears simple, implementing this philosophy has not been easy for dental practices. Steps on how to implement CAMBRA into private practice will be covered. Learning Objectives: • Describe the history of dental caries and the new biofilm model for the disease • Identify the materials and decisions necessary to successfully integrate CAMBRA into private practice, including how team members participate • Understand the treatment strategies for dental caries and the indications for treatment choices based on clinical examples Dr. Kutsch is the CEO of Oral BioTech in Ore. 24 · Register online today - www.wsda.org/pndc

Dr. Shelburne was sentenced to prison on August 20, 2008 for healthcare fraud. He found that his records and billing systems were faulty, and learned that it is critical and possible to implement protocols and form a defensive systemic approach to record keeping. From a legal perspective if it’s not in your clinical record you didn’t see it, you didn’t say it, you didn’t do it, it didn’t need to be done, and it doesn’t exist. To be prepared for any challenge the whole dental team must be careful, concise, complete, and diligent, not just the doctor. Learning and implementing this no nonsense team approach to record keeping could mean the difference between success and failure in the event of an action or challenge to your practice.

Meeting the demands imposed by many patients, the implant overdenture has become that standard of care for the edentulous mandible. This lecture is ideal for the clinician who wants to learn how to successfully incorporate implant overdentures into a general practice. This scientifically based, instructive presentation will focus on diagnosing for success, treatment planning, space analysis, fabricating templates, restorative options and avoiding complications. The afternoon workshop will train the participant with the attachments options discussed in this lecture.

Learning Objectives: • Understand that what you don’t know can hurt you and that ignorance is no excuse • Learn to assimilate and maintain records that can both protect and defend. • Understand the necessity of due diligence and how to conduct records review and internal audits to accuracy and insure accuracy and excellence Dr. Shelburne, convicted of healthcare fraud in 2008, speaks from personal experience on how to avoid career ending errors.

Thursday, June 11 from 2:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. CDE Credits: 3 Hours Room: Hyatt, Olympic Tower, Evergreen F Significant numbers of patients are walking into our offices every day with legitimate periodontal treatment needs. We have the technologies and abilities to address these needs better than ever before. As the economic screws start to tighten, the success of your practice is going to depend upon your ability to do two things: give patients reasons to follow through with your treatment recommendations, and consistently deliver optimal results in a way that benefits your patients and practice. This lecture will show you how to do both. You will learn about links between perio disease and heart disease, diabetes, pre-term low birth weight, arthritis, obesity, etc. We will then discuss how to incorporate these findings into a risk based approach to periodontal diagnosis and treatment that will work in your practice. You will leave with knowledge and materials necessary to maximize the potential of your perio practice.

Caries management by risk assessment is considered best practice in the prevention and treatment of dental caries disease, and represents a medical model approach to treating dental caries. There are several therapeutic strategies that can be utilized to help manage this disease. This lecture will review those strategies, provide an update of the current scientific literature and discuss how those strategies should be targeted to address the patient’s individual caries risk factors. Strategies examined will include restorative, remineralization, pH, fluoride, xylitol, probiotics and behavioral management/ wellness coaching. Highlighted case histories illustrate the success and failures in managing the high risk dental caries patient. Learning Objectives: • Understand the current dental caries biofilm disease model including recently reported genetic factors • Describe different caries management strategies • Discuss specific targeted caries strategies as they relate to the patient’s individual caries risk factors Dr. Kutsch is the CEO of Oral BioTech in Ore.

Learning Objectives: • Develop a strategy for identifying higher risk patients • Develop preferred messages to educate and motivate patients and medicine based on oral/overall health links • Develop a preferred diagnostic and treatment protocol for higher risk patients Dr. Donley is currently in the private practice of Periodontics and Implantology in Bowling Green, Ky.

Marketing isn’t a “one trick pony,” but a powerful marketing platform that is multilayered. To successfully market your practice and retain patients, you need to be current with the times, because patients’ expectations have changed. You need to consider traditional, digital and interactive marketing, not just one approach. This fast-paced and fun lecture will demonstrate an effective marketing strategy that is affordable, high-quality and easy to implement.

This lecture will review a systematic approach to accurately analyze a patient’s dental condition, including periodontal, restorative, functional, and cosmetic issues. After a proper diagnosis, treatment options become more apparent. One option is to utilize composite restorations. Resin esthetics can truly rival porcelain restorations. You will learn a step-by-step approach to recreating natural dentition with resin. Besides anterior esthetics, composites can be used to create an esthetic preview prior to advanced treatment, test drive treatment scenarios, repair trauma and more. Laboratory communication is essential and can make the final new smiles exquisite. Examples of a variety of cases in both resin and porcelain will be used to illustrate these principles.

Learning Objectives: • Understand the systems that are a must for a successful marketing campaign • Discover the number of new patients you need to meet your goals • Form an advertising and customer retention budget Dr. Savage is the CEO of the internationally recognized practice management company, Miles Global.

These restorations are no longer regarded as temporary restorations, but rather as provisional restorations with distinct functions and purposes. Provisional restorations have become a vital diagnostic and assessment tool to evaluate function, color, shape, contour, occlusion, periodontal response, implant healing, and overall esthetics. An accurate fit and margination is essential to insure and maintain pulpal health. With increased demands being placed on provisional restorations, new materials and techniques are being developed and some existing protocols are being refined to accomplish desired goals. This hands-on workshop is designed to report on current materials and concepts in fabricating and maintaining long-term esthetic provisionals.
