In 2016 he was appointed the consumer advocate on the United States Food and Drug Administration Dental Products Panel. \nNOBODY CARIES (3 hours) \nSometimes it seems as though our patients don’t grasp the basic concept of home care. Other times our patients with impeccable hygiene develop rampant decay and we feel helpless because we can’t figure out what’s going on. The mouth is a remarkable environment that cariologists are finally beginning to understand\, and so can you. Come learn everything you didn’t know about plaque and the amazing organisms that make the mouth a wonderful place to work.\nAt the end of this course\, participants should be able to:\n• Explain the mixed ecological approach to caries causation\n• Apply Evidence Based and novel preventive therapies\n• Quickly identify high caries risk patients before they develop disease\n• Stop “watching” lesions and see them get smaller \nCODEPENDENT CARIOLOGY (3 hours) \nDepriving cariogenic bacteria of sugar is the cornerstone of traditional caries management\, yet the science of CAMBRA (Caries Management By Risk Assessment) takes cariology to a whole new level. If you’re still telling patients to\, “Brush\, floss\, and use fluoride toothpaste” you’re going to be surprised by the myriad of treatment options available today. Streptococcus mutans has more to fear than stronger fluoride and more of it\, as dentistry embraces oral healthcare.\nAt the end of this course\, participants should be able to:\n• Identify risk factors leading to caries\n• Explain the role of commensals\n• Implement disease management in practice\n• Prolong the life of restorations in all patient URL:https://ncdsonline.org/event/briannovy-dds-nobody-caries-codependent-cariology/ LOCATION:Gaia Hotel & Spa\, 4125 Riverside Place\, Anderson\, CA\, 96007\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://ncdsonline.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/caries.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Northern California Dental Society":MAILTO:ncdsociety@outlook.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230324T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230324T150000 DTSTAMP:20260501T123112 CREATED:20220531T193408Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230315T192928Z UID:3424-1679648400-1679670000@ncdsonline.org SUMMARY:Joyce Bassett\, DDS - Things That Go Wrong Even When You Do Everything Right DESCRIPTION:6 (CE Units) JOYCE BASSETT\, DDS\, FAACD\, FAGD\, practices comprehensive restorative and aesthetic dentistry in Scottsdale\, Arizona.

She will explore state-of-the-art\, real-time digital design and link 3D prosthetic planning with fundamental smile design principles. You will learn systematic techniques to treat every aspect and ensure aesthetics that are BUILT TO LAST. These techniques can be used to both prevent and remedy these failures. While materials are often considered the cause of clinical failures\, more often the failure is a result of function\, incomplete planning\, decision-making\, and execution. When a clinical failure occurs\, there is often conflict and blaming between the dentist\, patient\, and laboratory technician. She will cover communication techniques that offer realistic patient expectations. Proven conflict resolution techniques to address these issues will be proposed\, as well as a checklist for careful patient and laboratory communication. There is something for everyone to learn. There are no unintended consequences\, only situations that were not well thought out. \nLearning Objectives:\n● Master the usage of systemized techniques to treat simple to complex cases with veneers\, crowns\, and implants\n● Obtain the knowledge of real-time digital smile design principles for both composite Provisionals and porcelain\n● Integrate sound occlusal principles to create synergy between form and function.

Current research indicates there are multiple known risk factors for the disease including genetic factors. P4 medicine promotes an approach that is predictive\, preventive\, personalized and participatory. Caries Risk Management meets all of these criteria and is considered best practice in the prevention and treatment of dental caries disease. Unfortunately\, early attempts at Caries Risk Management were complicated\, confusing and not easily implemented in daily practice. This program will review the most current scientific literature on caries management and present a simplified approach that is both efficient and effective in clinical practice. In summary\, the program will help the participant answer the questions: How can I successfully implement Caries Risk Management into my daily practice? How can we effectively use a P4 medical mode to help our patients manage this disease? \n  \nCourse Objectives: \n\nUpon completion\, participant will be able to discuss the current dental caries biofilm disease model.\nUpon completion\, participant will be able to describe different caries management strategies including coaching language.\nUpon completion\, participant will be able to implement a simple caries management\n\nsystem. \nWellness Coaching for Dental Caries \nCaries Risk Management is considered best practice in the prevention and treatment of dental caries disease\, although early attempts in clinical practice have been overly complicated. Implementing this concept into daily practice affects all management systems in the office\, but more importantly\, really requires new skills to help coach the patient along their journey to health. This approach has been called Motivational Interviewing\, Patient Centered Dentistry\, and/or Wellness Coaching. But regardless of the name\, the skills are the same. This lecture will present this philosophy and review verbal coaching skills. \nCourse Objectives: \n\nUpon completion\, the participant will be able to identify the commonly known risk factors and treatment strategies for dental caries.\nUpon completion\, the participant will be able to discuss the strategic decisions necessary to successfully implement caries risk assessment into daily practice.\nUpon completion\, the participant will have learned new verbal coaching skills to help their patients achieve health.
