With the introduction of ever more variations on the use of rotating NiTi instruments, it is important to present the downsides of
these techniques in terms of inadequate shaping of oval canals,
their vulnerability to breakage and their potential to produce dentinal defects. This topic leads us to the significant clinical advantages of replacing the initial use of K-files with relieved reamers
in the creation of the glide path. These advantages include minimizing the impaction of debris apically often resulting in loss of
length, ledging, transportation, frank perforation and generalized
canal distortions. With separation no longer an issue and a technique that accentuates the accurate shaping of even highly curved
canals, the instruments are routinely used several times before
replacement resulting in dramatic cost reductions and procedures
free of stress.

Mastership Program

This program includes the option of an assignment, as is done in
AGD “protocol” courses in the “MasterTrack” program, presented
by the attendee at the 2014 GNYDM. Those who choose this option
will be eligible for additional MCE “participation” credit recorded
through their state AGD office for a fee.
learn:
• why K-reamers unrelieved through a 10 and relieved with a flat
along length are your friends
• why K-files are the cause of so many problems before ever
getting to rotating NiTi
• why 30º reciprocation is so much safer for the instruments and
the integrity of the dentinal walls
• when instruments are virtually invulnerable to breakage, they
can shape canals more thoroughly, more efficiently and far less
expensively

This unique pavilion provides an overview of the current uses of lasers in dentistry located right on the exhibit floor. A discussion of
applied laser physics is used to explain how to safely and efficiently
use a laser for the benefit of your patients. Both hard and soft tissue
procedures, many of which can be used by general dentists, are discussed and illustrated. This seminar concludes with a brief discussion
of current laser research and the criteria for the “ideal laser.”

Cone Beam CT is having a dramatic impact on all phases of clinical dentistry. The ability to view our patient’s anatomy in three dimensions, and in color, is greatly enhancing our diagnoses, decision
making and treatment delivery. This seminar explains the basics of
cone beam CT and 3D imaging software, and how to integrate these
technologies into our practices. The standard of care is changing.
Our patients expect and deserve nothing less.

CAD/CAM is playing an increasing role in restorative dentistry
which will grow over the next five years. This seminar reviews the
components of dental CAD/CAM systems and how it functions in
the dental workspace. Features that impact the dentists’ decisions
on which system is right for their practice are also reviewed.
