DIAGNOSIS AND PROGNOSIS FOR
IMPLANT RETAINED PROSTHESIS
This program describes methods to avoid common problems
confronting dentists and patients when fabricating dentures, overdentures and fixed dentures. Universal problems of patient dissatisfaction and/or dentist complaining of labs making bad prosthesis
can be eliminated once and for all. Specific parameters allow optima
patient communication by the use of a simple digital application that
guides all the necessary patient recordings to a valid diagnosis and
patient approval. Allow patients to co-discover their existing facial
appearance, what can and cannot be done, determine complexity of
treatment, decide if implants are optimal and decide the best treatment options.
Learn to:
* digitally record a detailed assessment and examination
* perform facial analysis before committing to treatment
* understand the significance of the esthetic and functional space as
it relates to all prosthesis

ADDRESSING THE GLOBAL BURDEN OF DISEASE AND THE UN'S
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS: DENTAL VOLUNTEERISM
AND PROFESSIONAL SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITy
The Academy of Dentistry International (ADI) is an organization
devoted to the advancement of dentistry throughout the world and
the improvement of the oral health of citizens of every nation. www.
adint.org
Moderator: David C. Alexander, B.D.S., M.Sc., D.D.P.H.
The 2015 Global Burden of Disease Studies reports that oral diseases rank among the highest of 291 studied diseases and conditions;
highlighting caries in adults as the single most prevalent condition on
the planet, severe periodontal disease as the sixth most prevalent;
and, caries in children as the tenth most prevalent. Many countries
and communities have little or no access to preventive or reparative oral health care services despite widespread need. Many dental
professionals participate in voluntary service at home and overseas.
Others contemplate doing so and may not always fully understand
the personal and professional commitments and benefits.
Learn:
* the personal, emotional, cultural and professional aspects of
becoming a dental volunteer
* factors to consider in identifying a suitable project to join, project
design and evaluation
* relevant clinical and communication skills and techniques for
primary and secondary prevention
