Dental Events

Tooth wear is the third most common oral pathology after caries and periodontal disease. It is often overlooked in practice, yet creates daily challenges for most general dentists and can lead to long term implications for the longevity of your dentistry.

Using a systematic approach to diagnosis, and an inter-disciplinary planning approach, the programme builds a structure for assessing and managing tooth wear in your office, using the latest evidence and digital tools. This exclusive 6 month mentoring programme aims to help dentists develop the necessary design, diagnostic and restorative skills to diagnose and treat cases of tooth wear and apply occlusal and reconstructive concepts to any case, with greater confidence and predictability.

Full of practical skills and evidence-based advice, you will start to look at your patients differently and expand your range of care. Supported by her knowledgable team, there will be take-home applications for the entire dental office.

Geared for both analogue and digital practices, Dr Shepperson will share her extensive knowledge of Digital Smile Design, Risk Assessment based planning, occlusal concepts and an inter-disciplinary approach to care. Become more confident, expand your services and deliver better long term outcomes for your patients.

Providing patients with ever increasing predictability, while decreasing costs, time and morbidity, are important considerations in dental implantology. Understanding how to atraumatically remove teeth, preserve hard and soft tissue contours and thereby increase the possibility of immediate implant placement is a key skill. Southern Implants have created site specific implants that fit into this treatment concept.

This course will cover the utilisation of MAX implants (posterior sites) and Inverta implants (anterior sites) for immediate tooth replacements protocols.

Learning Objectives:

• Diagnosis and Treatment Planning for Immediacy

• Patient Selection Parameters

• Planning Implant Positions

• Immediate Implant Surgical Protocols

• Grafting Procedures Associated with Immediate Implants

• Temporisation (Temporary Crown and Customised Caps)

• Postoperative Protocols to Decrease Complications

• Complication Management

This course will have numerous hands-on practical components that will be performed on life-like models by all participants.

Welcome to COLLABORATION CURES 2024, the in-person educational networking and celebratory experience that is pioneering the standards for collaborative healthcare.

The co-hosts, the American Academy of Physiological Medicine and Dentistry (AAPMD) and the American Academy of Oral Systemic Health (AAOSH), are excited to invite you to the 7th annual COLLABORATION CURES conference held in Reno, NV—The Biggest Little City in the World—this upcoming September 12-14, 2024.

Beyond Repair to Improved Healthcare

Shall I fix what is bothering you or should we find and treat the why together?

Practitioners attend the Collaboration Cures Conferences to expand their knowledge, learn to collaborate and implement better care. They have awakened to the role they can and must play to prevent and reverse chronic disease, and they are sought after by patients in increasing numbers who desire to understand the causes and to seek durable care solutions. Sponsors bring the best resources and services to meet the goals of our attendees. COLLABORATION CURES 2024 incorporates a special learning and networking event on collaborative care. Current best practices are moving towards collaborative medical / dental therapies. The importance of airway, sleep, oral systemic health, nutrition, toxicity, physical therapy and myofunctional therapy treatments in chronic disease is becoming recognized and accepted. By attending COLLABORATION CURES 2024, attendees and sponsors alike will enhance relationships with others that share their vision/mission. Attendees will increase their knowledge, hear new ideas, take home useful/applicable tools, and gain valuable resources. Sponsors will meet potential clients who seek the products and services they offer.

We welcome you to join us for Inspiration, Education, Innovation, FUN, and renewed energy and purpose, and we can’t wait to see you there!
