Dentaltown march 2016 - (Page 18)

continuing education update What's New in Continuing Education March is here and spring is a time of renewal for all of us. So let's renew our dentistry knowledge and check out the CE offerings released on Dentaltown. com last month. First off, I want to invite everyone to join us for some great live CE-including a special hands-on treatment-planning workshop by the great clinicians from Clinical Mastery-at Townie Meeting 2016 in Las Vegas, March 30-April 2. Visit Towniemeeting. com for more details. Released recently on Dentaltown.com ... Understanding Occlusion... by Dr. John Nosti Just released is the latest CE masterpiece by Dr. John Nosti on occlusion, which remains one of the most confusing topics in dentistry today. Dentists tend to have seemingly different opinions on the importance of dictating restorative positions on each and every patient. To compound this issue, restorative failures still occur, despite meeting the "occlusal philosophies" of these camps teaching strict occlusal restorative positions. Join Nosti, as he defines occlusion, simplifies common occlusion terminology and reviews when restorative positions should and should not be used. This is the course for you if: * You have ever been confused between the terms centric relation, centric occlusion, and maximum intercuspation. * You have always wanted to know if posterior interferences truly play a role in occlusal stability. * You have ever wondered, "Do I really need to fit every single patient into the same occlusal restorative position?" * You have wanted to learn a predictable way to take a centric relation bite registration or an increased vertical bite registration. Learn when occlusion truly matters! The Inman Aligner Online Certification Course by Dr. Tif Qureshi This course's contents will cover introduction, philosophy and terminology used in Inman Aligner therapy. Topics covered include applications, and a summary of possible and impossible movements. The course will also focus on diagnosis and case selection, especially on occlusion and arch-form planning for correct function. Treatment execution will highlight-in detail-the progressive measured space creation and anchor placement for timed movements of teeth. Case finishing and retention will outline the best methods for long-term stability and retention. The course contains many example case studies and troubleshooting to outline common errors. The course consists of three sections with nine modules. You need to pass three learning-aid quizzes in order to become certified and listed as an Inman Aligner provider. In addition, 10 CE credits are awarded upon completion of the program. This series also includes access to the Inman Aligner Private forum where cases can be submitted for advice and approval. All aspects of Inman Aligner treatment, including service and marketing, are topics of discussion in this exclusive forum. Oral and Dental Sequelae of Cancer Therapy by Dr. Lauren Levi As one of the leading causes of death in the United States, cancer is devastating disease that affects everyone. Although cancer therapies such as chemotherapy and radiation treatment save many lives, unfortunately, they are often associated with several sequelae, including oral and dental sequelae. How do we treat these manifestations? When is it appropriate or safe to conduct dental treatment on patients undergoing cancer therapy? This course focuses on the dental and oral manifestations of chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and head and neck surgery, and how to manage these conditions. The course also reviews the ideal time to treat patients while they are undergoing cancer therapy. by Howard M.
