In-Person CE: Cracked Tooth Case Studies with Dr. Jae Woo Cho & Modern Bioactive Restorations with Dr. Todd Snyder & Social Power Hour

REGISTRATION & BREAKFAST: 7:30AM-8AM

Cracked Tooth Case Studies Featuring Jae Woo Cho, DDS
8:00 A.M – 11:00 A.M 3 CEU core

While it is the third leading cause of tooth loss (after caries and periodontitis), there is still the lack of consensus on how to manage cracked teeth. While on the rapid rise, an epidemic, a cracked tooth is still not a diagnosis but a clinical finding. This course aims to address how to identify, diagnose, and manage different types of cracks based on the latest evidence-based approach, providing clinicians a guideline as we navigate the tough topic and situations that we encounter every day in our clinical practice.

Learning Objectives:
1. Identifying causes and diagnostic tools – how do we properly diagnose cracked teeth
2. Developing a systematic criteria for categorizing cracked teeth
3. Save VS Extract
4. How do we restore cracked teeth with maximum predictability – the latest protocol.

Modern Bioactive Restorations featuring Todd Snyder, DDS
12:00 P.M- 4:00 P.M, 4 CEU

A lot of emphasis is placed on utilizing resin based restorative materials when a tooth-colored direct restoration is necessary. However, in some instances a different form of bioactive tooth colored restorative materials should be considered. There are many benefits to utilizing bioactive materials as direct restorations compared to traditional resin technologies or even cements. Their unique material properties allow them to have distinct advantages that few other materials can share. In this program traditional resin technology will be discussed as to its limitations and how bioactive materials can be used as a better substitution for your patients in some situations.

Learning Objectives:
1. Limitations in current resin adhesive technologies
2. Learn when to consider utilizing bioactive materials
3. Understand their advantages and limitations
4. Learn proper placement techniques
5. Learn how they provide an advantage to restoring teeth
