Why You Should Be Doing Alveolar Ridge Preservation Grafting
2024-12-10 19:00 - 20:00 (America/New_York) | Online
Tuesday, December 10
7:00-8:00 PM EDT
1 CE*
Are you providing the proper ridge preservation procedures?
Learn about bone loss physiology, ARP techniques, essential instruments, and the use of barrier membranes to improve outcomes for patients and practices.
Course Objectives

Understand why alveolar ridge resorption occurs after tooth extraction.
Become aware of the necessary techniques for predictable and successful alveolar ridge preservation grafting.
Understand how using the right instruments and supplies will help you perform alveolar ridge preservation grafting with less stress and better results.
Appreciate how an extraction socket should be prepared prior to graft placement
Witness the benefits of ARP for your patients and practice

Course Overview
A fixed 3-unit bridge is no longer the procedure of choice for replacing a recently extracted tooth. A single crown attached to an osseointegrated dental implant has been the standard of care for this treatment for over 20 years. Alveolar ridge resorption is known to occur after tooth removal due to loss of functional stress on the bone. If a dental implant is planned to be placed 3 – 6 months after the extraction, the ridge atrophy may be significant enough to result in insufficient alveolar volume, requiring additional augmentation before the implant can be placed. Alveolar ridge preservation grafting (ARPG) is a proven technique to minimize the amount of bone loss in the months following an extraction. In this webinar, we will discuss the physiology of bone loss after extraction, and the evidence that ridge preservation grafting can prevent about 85% of it. We will also talk about the reasons ARPG is beneficial to both the patient and the dental practice, as well as how the technique is done and what instruments and supplies facilitate obtaining a good outcome from grafting.

For more info and to register, visit here
Course Overview
Much like an antagonist in any good story, dental biofilm seems to be the main character in today’s clinical dentistry—we scale it, polish it, remove it, and dread it. It shows up on implants, removable prosthesis, in subgingival pockets and even in our dental unit waterlines. But what do we actually know about these complex microbiological communities living within each and every one of us? Are they always bad? Do they actually cause inflammation? Can we eliminate them completely? In this deep dive into the oral microbiome, Melissa Turner takes a step back and identifies what we do know about the microbes who dwell in our mouth—and helps us understand that there is much left to be discovered in the underworld that we call biofilm.

Course Overview
‘I love doing a quadrant of large, deep class II’s and III’s… said no dentist ever.’ Join Dr. Craig Spodak in saying adios to those back-breaking soul-crushing composite restorations and explore why highly-durable, minimally invasive, indirect 3D printed restorations are the future. Attendees will learn how Digital Press Stereolithography (DPS) technology enables clinicians to achieve superior clinical outcomes while embracing partial coverage restorations and preserving more of the natural tooth structure. By moving beyond traditional composites, practices can streamline workflows, boost efficiency, and enhance patient satisfaction, all while achieving better profitability and predictable results.
Key Topics:

Recognize the Limitations of Large Posterior Composites

Evaluate the clinical limitations of hand-layered traditional large, direct composites in quadrant dentistry, focusing on how composite restorations often require excessive tooth reduction, technique-sensitive layering, and result in less durable outcomes.

Explore the Efficiency of Digital Press Stereolithography for Indirect Restorations

Understand how DPS technology allows for efficient, high-precision partial coverage restorations (e.g., inlays, onlays), reducing the need for crowns and preserving more of the patient’s natural tooth structure.

Maximize Profitability and Patient Outcomes with Tooth-Preserving Techniques

Discover how using ceramic onlay codes (D2643 and D2644) can significantly boost practice revenue while providing patients with long-lasting, tooth-preserving restorations. Discuss how 3D printed restorations restore teeth to their original strength and eliminate the issues seen with direct composites, like microleakage and shrinkage stress, for improved patient satisfaction and clinical success.

Speaker: Dr. Craig Spodak
Dr. Craig Spodak, a third-generation dentist, graduated with highest honors from Tufts University and joined his father’s practice in Delray Beach, Florida, in 1998. In 2006, he assumed leadership and transformed the practice into a state-of-the-art, 13,000-square-foot, LEED Gold Certified facility, bringing together general and specialty dentists for comprehensive care under one roof. His practice prioritizes innovative, compassionate patient care with advanced technology across 18 operatories and an on-site lab for same-day services. Dr. Spodak is also a committed advocate for community causes, co-founding the All-Star Smiles Foundation with MLB’s Giancarlo Stanton to combat childhood tooth decay, and has expanded his influence nationally, providing lectures on dental practice culture and financial education. His achievements include accolades such as the ADA’s 2014 Dental Office Design of the Year and Inc5000 recognition. Active in Delray Beach’s business and civic life, Dr. Spodak’s contributions have solidified his practice as both a pioneering dental facility and a community pillar.

For more info and to register, visit here
Course Overview
We are all aware that dentistry and surgery are an art, in addition to a science. For most of what we do, there can be multiple ways to perform a procedure to get to the same result. But just like it is for a chef, the tools and instruments we use can facilitate the performance and efficiency of a task or make it much more challenging. When it comes to successful alveolar ridge preservation grafting after a tooth is extracted, a variety of new instruments and biologic materials have been designed to allow the clinician to perform these procedures with less stress, better efficiency, and more predictable results. This course will introduce the clinician to these essential tools to make their ridge preservation surgeries easier to complete so that a dental implant can be used to restore their patients’ oral function.

Pediatric patients present serious challenges.

Pediatric dentists have developed many techniques that help treat tricky situations with minimal intervention. This course teaches these techniques, when to use them, and how to do them. Some topics discussed are the uncooperative patient with mild to moderate decay, the sensitive hypoplastic molar, how to incorporate SDF into your practice, appropriate use of Glass ionomer, the modified Hall crown, and Strip crowns. All of these may keep kiddos in your practice longer. The hands-on portion will help you understand how to perform these techniques while allowing for feedback on how to have success. This course is designed to have you walk away feeling confident in your ability to bring these techniques into practice and answer your pediatric questions.

Worried about complications in ridge preservation grafting?
Join Dr. Jay Reznick on October 29th and gain the confidence to handle any challenge with ease.
In this 1-hour session, Dr. Reznick will dive into the common challenges associated with alveolar ridge preservation grafting, from infection to graft failure, and provide actionable strategies to minimize risks. You’ll also learn how to recognize early warning signs of complications and apply effective management techniques for successful graft integration. This course is essential for clinicians looking to enhance their surgical outcomes in dental implantology.

Course Overview
No surgical procedure, no matter how simple and straightforward, is 100% successful. Alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) grafting is a very commonly performed technique to minimize alveolar bone loss following tooth removal, where later placement of an osseointegrated dental implant is anticipated. Nevertheless, ARP grafts can become infected, prematurely resorbed, or fail altogether. We will discuss strategies the clinician can follow that will minimize the risk of suboptimal ARP grafting. In addition, it will cover what to do to manage such complications should they occur, and achieve a grafted ridge that is sufficient for implant support.
