Social Media for Dentists:
What You Need to Know Now

Successful Endodontics with the
Final Restoration in Mind

In a changing economy, competition
among dentists requires the use of the
latest technologies and best media for
connecting to existing and potential new
patients. Attendees will learn how to best utilize Facebook, the
leading platform in social media. Advanced technologies will be
presented for increasing subscriber base, engaging with and
promoting increased utilization of services to existing customers, and efficient use of limited budget dollars for internal and
external marketing.

Treatment outcomes for endododontic
treatment are based on the health of
the apical periodontium and long-term
survivability of the tooth. The basic
requirements for endodontic success haven't changed, but
technological advances now allow us to achieve these them
without unnecessarily removing dentin and weakening the
tooth. This lecture will present, explain and demonstrate new
technologies that allow superior cleaning in all dimensions of the
canal with minimal removal of unnecessary dentin. The canal
is then filled with a bonded bioceramic material that both seals
and strengthens the root.
