First Time Season Pass Purchase Receives:  Complimentary registration to
'Infection Control & CDPA'  on January 15, 2019.

Course Description:

In the last 15 years there have been many changes in Ceramics and Hybrid Ceramics available to clinicians. These newer materials often have very different physical properties, finishing, polishing and cementation or bonding protocols. This course will provide a review of these newer materials, their proper clinical indications and cementation or bonding procedures. Additional information on advanced adhesion protocols will also be presented with a review of some minimally invasive procedures.

Learning Objectives:

·    Proper clinical indications for new Ceramics, Zirconia & Hybrid Ceramics

·    How to cement or bond new ceramics

·    Review of the physical properties of new ceramics

·    Important nuances with some of the new ceramics

·    Advanced adhesion techniques for indirect restorations

·    How to virtually eliminate post-operative sensitivity with indirect restorations

When the practice is paid rapidly and appropriately, things are good; however, when there are delays, denials, and requests for additional information, thing are not quite so good.  Mistakes can be devastating to the practice and can even lead to prison time.  I learned the hard way, going to prison myself.  Come learn that the proper use of the codes and comprehensive documentation results in maximum legitimate reimbursement, reduces risk, and lowers the stress in your practice as well as keep you out of jail.

Objectives:

1.    To have fun while learning
2.    To know the most commonly misused codes
3.    To be able to correct common coding mistakes and eliminate reimbursement delays
4.    To be equipped to provide the necessary supportive information to be paid quickly and consistently

"We polled SGVDS members to get a feel for what they wanted to learn about in Endodontics and a few topics rose to the top.  Dr. Chesler will give members highlights from many of these topics to include; non-surgical v surgical treatment planning, perforation management, and new treatment methods."

Course Description:

In today’s fast past world, patients and clinicians want things to be done as quickly and efficiently as possible.  These ideals can be accomplished by utilizing the latest digital tools to help us treatment plan and execute both surgical and prosthetic implant treatment.  A new innovative solution for single tooth replacement uses these tools to help us to examine the proposed implant site, visualize the future restorative ideal, plan and execute the implants accordingly, and immediately restore the case with a pre-made custom abutment and provisional crown or a custom healing abutment.  All of this leads to more efficient productive treatment for all parties involved. 

Learning objectives:

• Understand what principles influence idealized gingival and restorative esthetics and what things we should be looking for before surgery has begun
• Become familiar with the workflows and planning processes to accomplish predictable implant placement via guided surgery
• Discuss how implementing digital technology as part of your restorative technique can decrease patient visits and reduce chairtime
