altMinimally Invasive and Ultraconservative Restorative Dentistry -- Everything the Dentist Needs to Start Tomorrow! 
 
 
Dentistry is evolving toward more elegant and refined systems. The drive for maximum conservation of healthy hard and soft tissue is leading to less invasive dentistry to the benefit of the patient. Starting with Caries Management by Risk Assessment (CAMBRA) and disease prevention by minimally restorative techniques, dentists following this philosophy have the ability to be a true HEALER rather than simply a tooth repairman. Cutting edge research on disease and the latest in minimally invasive restorations will be discussed. Attendees will learn about: preventative composite and glass ionomer restorations, ceramic and composite inlays and onlays, cast and milled ceramic full coverage crowns, lasers, magnification, air abrasion, electric handpieces, antimicrobial agents and enamel remineralization.  
 
Course Objectives: Upon completion of this course, attendees will have a better understanding of:
  • Critical issues surrounding minimally invasive dentistry.
  • The CAMBRA system.
  • The microbial basis of periodontal disease and decay.
  • Creating an antimicrobial program for each patient.
  • How to communicate new concepts in minimally invasive and preventative dentistry.
  • Determining the appropriate restorative material for restoring teeth.
