ENDO FOR GPs:
BETTER, FASTER & SAFER Root Canals

(Half or full day lecture)

If you are nervous about performing root canals, or changing your clinical protocols, then this course is for you.  It will be practical, honest and engaging!  You’ll see how root canals have become less stressful and more predictable.

The program is tailored to novice and experienced GPs, very informative, easy to follow and clinically relevant.  Numerous clinical cases are presented along with HD and 3D videos to highlight key points.

Learning Objectives:

1. -   BETTER. Learn how to better:  access teeth, locate and instrument cal’d canals, follow canal curvatures, anesthetize (hot) teeth, improve intra-canal medications.

2. -    FASTER. Learn how to more efficiently: locate canals (including MB2), instrument and obturate with fewer steps, and one vs two appointment endo.

3. -  SAFER. Learn how to separate less files, prevent perforations, avoid canal ledging / blocking, prevent obturation extrusion, reduce post-op pain.

>> Target audience: dentists

PAEDIATRIC AND GERIATRIC ENDODONTICS

(Half day lecture)

This practical course is tailored for novice and experienced dentists who want to know how to better, safer and more efficiently treat paediatric and geriatric patients.  Many tips and tricks will be discussed along with medical and dental considerations specific for the very young and old.  These will include management of very large vs. calcified canals, treatment planning, dental trauma management, pre and post treatment medications, and restoration of endo treated teeth.

Learning Objectives:

1. Learn how to instrument, medicate, obturate and restore teeth with immature apices, calcified and curved canals (including MB2) and prevention and management of endo complications.

2. Learn about pre and post treatment medication protocols (antibiotics, anaelgesics) and drug interactions in young and old patients.

3. Understand treatment protocols for dental trauma,  facial swellings, and when to endo vs. exo/implant.

>>> Target audience: dentists

ENDO WORKSHOP for GP’s:
SAFER AND BETTER INSTRUMENTATION, IRRIGATION AND OBTURATION

(Half day workshop)

This workshop is tailored for general dentists.

Participants will learn via exercises on acrylic and extracted teeth, how to instrument and obturate more efficiently and safely.

   Participants will be exposed to dental microscopes and be shown how beneficial they are in diagnosis of fractures, endodontic access, locating calcified canals and instrumentation and obturation.

As part of the workshop, there will be a very honest, constructive and friendly review of the day’s instrumented and obturated cases via immediate digital radiographic imaging.

-Learn to locate and negotiate calcified canals using various techniques and very efficient instruments.

1. -Learn how to obturate the workshop’s instrumented teeth in 3D, predictably and efficiently.

2. -Learn safe and effective intra-canal irrigation and activation and protocols for one visit endo.

-Learn to evaluate endo instrumentation and obturation via digital radiographs and microscopes.

Note:  participants will require to bring at least three previously accessed but not instrumented extracted teeth stored in bleach.

>> Target audience: dentists, dental assistants

MAKING ENDO MORE PREDICTABLE AND YOUR OFFICE MORE PRODUCTIVE
WITH PRODUCT AND PROCEDURE INNOVATIONS

(Half day lecture)

This program will show how you can perform endodontics more predictably, in less time and more safely, by incorporating endodontic innovations.   Many recent advances in endodontic armamentaria and protocols have, for the better, simplified clinical endodontics.  By doing so, we can perform endodontics more efficiently and safely.  This will include innovations in diagnosis, instrumentation (including calcified canals), intra-canal disinfection, obturation, and single visit endodontics, amongst other aspects of endodontics.

Numerous practical tips, tricks and tools will be highlighted to help you consistently perform root canal treatments more predictably.

OBJECTIVES:

Learn which innovations will help you consistently perform endo faster and more safely

Learn how to predictably negotiate, instrument and obturate calcified and curved canals.

Learn how to perform root canals and restore in a single visit with predictable outcomes and post-op comfort.
