One procedure, which has not changed over time, is our responsibility, as healthcare providers, to perform regular oral cancer screenings. With the increase of interdisciplinary education, we have recognized the need to reach out to those health care professionals to support our efforts to save lives since we all treat and provide care for the same people! Many professionals now benefit from updated information to reinforce which adjunctive devices and tests are new on the market to perform screenings. These new tests and devices have the ability enhance our skills to communicate with patients and staff on the importance of the oral cancer screening process. As professionals providing health services, we should be at the pulse of clinical devices and appropriate patient care, while being able to recommend product protocols for use in the office.

Peri-implantitis is currently the most common cause of implant failure after osseointegration failures. Peri-implantitis and the precursor condition, Peri-implant mucositis, is preventable with appropriate patient and clinical maintenance protocols. Systematic reviews recently published by our laboratories (Temple University) indicate that the prevalence of peri-implantitis may be as high as 66%. Proper implant maintenance protocols should be initiated at implant treatment planning and reinforced with patients at each successive post operative appointment. Current strategies for implant maintenance include recognition of medical and medication risk factors impacting on bone loss around implants as well as in office maintenance procedures coupled with optimizing patient home care. This CE webinar will present current data illustrating preventive strategies for peri-implantitis.

A smile makeover is a very complex and involved treatment which incorporates an in-depth knowledge of smile design, proper occlusion, and the ability to work with a team, to include the dental laboratory technician. Typically, the treatment plan begins to come to life after a detailed smile analysis and a wax up which is ideally fabricated by a technician. The skilled technician’s hands use a free hand approach in the wax up. The difficulty lies in the dentist then transferring this plan, complete with the proper form and fine details, to the patient’s mouth.
