Auckland Central, New Zealand
The traditional role of ultrasonics in dental practice has been largely one of scaling teeth. However, in the last 15 years ultrasonics has expanded to other areas of clinical dentistry. In addition to periodontal procedures, ultrasonics is important in operative dentistry, from the placing of pit and fissure sealants to crown preparations. In endodontics, ultrasonics is used to clean debris from the pulp chamber and to find and locate canals. Ultrasonics assists in the cleaning, shaping and obturation of the root canal system and is essential for the removal of obstructions such as posts and separated instruments during re-treatment. It is also essential for periapical surgery.
The purpose of this practical “hands on” workshop is to introduce you to these ultrasonic techniques by carrying out various exercises on tooth models. The only requirement for the workshop is enthusiasm and a willingness to learn! All materials will be supplied. If you use magnifying loupes please bring them to the course (loupes will be available for trial as part of the course). Your instructors are a general practitioner, a prosthodontist and an endodontist, all with great experience in using ultrasonic treatment in everyday practice.
TOPICS:
- Power setting and tip selection for optimum results
- Pit and fissure restorations
- Endodontic access cavities, canal location and removal of obstructions
- Veneer preparation
- Cavity preparation
- Crown preparation
- Periodontal procedures
We look forward to welcoming you to this unique learning opportunity.
