The post-graduate residents in Advanced Education in General Dentistry, a 12-month program at Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) will present table clinics outside the Exhibit Hall on Friday, June 16 from 11:30 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.

CE Credits: 3 hours

Thursday, June 15 from 2:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.

CE Credits: 3 hours For natural appearance of prostheses placed in aesthetic areas, the preservation and/or reconstruction of the tissue volume seems necessary in many instances. Soft tissue, hard tissue, or combined augmentations may be attempted to reduce these defects, enhancing the alveolar contour at the edentulous segment. Also, while tissue volume at anterior implants is a key to aesthetic success, the adequate management of the provisional and definitive restoration becomes crucial to obtain optimal esthetic results.

During this lecture we will discuss different surgical techniques to optimize aesthetic result. Also, we will describe the concepts for the adequate subgingival abutment design, and the role of contour modifications at these zones on the peri-implant soft tissues, including the gingival margin level, gingival architecture, and gingiva color.

Learning Objectives: • Role of abutment design for predictable anterior implant esthetics • Immediate vs. delayed implant provisional restoration • Principles for the management of the gingival architecture: critical/subcritical contour concept

Faster and Easier Exodontia Continued - Hands-on Workshop on Life-like Dentoform Models Thursday, June 15 from 2:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.

CE Credits: 3 hours Cost: $250 Prerequisite: Attendees must attend Dr. Karl Koerner’s morning lecture on “New and More Efficient Ways to Perform Difficult Extractions” in order to attend this workshop.

Teeth needing extraction may look easy, but can unexpectedly turn difficult, requiring more time than anticipated. This course reviews newer methods and instruments that allow these procedures to be completed more easily, more predictably, and less traumatically. Teeth should be extracted without buccal bone removal to promote more aesthetic bridges and implant placement. Dr. Koerner presents step-by-step approaches to sectioning teeth and removing individual roots - even if the teeth are decayed or fractured below the bone level. He discusses differences between single-tooth and multiple-teeth removal as it pertains to the management of soft tissue and bone. He also reviews flaps, incisions, and suturing during exodontia.

Dr. Koerner will cover common surgical complications and how to avoid and manage them for successful outcomes.

Some of these issues include sinus problems, bleeding problems, retrieving difficult roots, and air emphasema. One section is on patient evaluation prior to surgery, and the other is on general patient management during and after surgery. Some cases require referral. Whether or not to refer depends on the training, experience, and comfort level of the operator. This course is primarily for general dentists.

Learning Objectives: • Dentists will be able to do “surgical” extractions more quickly and easily • Dentists will be able to avoid or manage complications during oral surgery • Dentists will be able to select surgery cases more appropriately - referring others to specialists

While e-cigarettes do not contain tobacco, these devices have a mechanism that heats up liquid nicotine, which turns into a vapor that smokers inhale and exhale. Because they contain no tobacco, e-cigarettes are not subject to U.S. tobacco laws - meaning they can be purchased without proof of age. This raises concerns that e-cigs may be particularly appealing to children and may encourage nicotine addiction among young people.

Learning Objectives: • Elucidate the systemic ramifications of tobacco use • Describe current trends in cigarette use • Design appropriate tobacco and smoking-cessation therapies for implementation into the dental setting Betsy Reynolds, RDH Armed with degrees in dental hygiene and oral biology, Betsy Reynolds is avidly committed to making the dental sciences understandable and relevant.
