“Comprehensive Treatment Planning”

Dinner will be served, followed by a lively two-hour discussion of Treatment Planning/Hand On. Five to ten participants will present cases to be treatment planned or show already completed cases. This will be followed by a spirited discussion of the existing therapeutic alternatives – an excellent way to exchange ideas and expand your knowledge base. This forum will also serve as a learning crucible for difficult cases. Please note that you do not have to present cases to participate.

“Cardiovascular Disease: Dental Considerations and Effective Patient Care Planning”

Did you know that cardiovascular disease is often asymptomatic and undiagnosed, only to be sometimes discovered during a routine dental appointment?

Cardiovascular disease and its systemic complications remain the leading cause of death for both men and women and has a significant impact on dental therapy. This program explores the family of cardiovascular diseases (including hypertension, coronary artery disease, hyperlipidemia, and congestive heart failure) and the medications used in their treatment. Participants will explore patient management strategies essential for successful treatment planning. Special emphasis will be given to newly approved anticoagulant agents and their effect on dental therapy.

“Essential Skills for Extraordinary Living ” A High-Impact Experience for all Health Care Professionals

Success in life isn’t about working harder—it’s about mastering the essential skills that create lasting momentum, resilience, and breakthrough results. This isn’t just another keynote. It’s an interactive deep dive into the principles that separate high-performing People from those stuck in cycles of stress and burnout.
In this immersive session, participants will not only learn these essential skills—they’ll embody them. Through hands-on exercises, real-time application, and somatic experiences, you will walk away with a visceral understanding of how to elevate leadership, decision-making, and energy management in a way that sticks.

Key Takeaways

1. Mastering State Management: Learn how to bend time, manage focus, and regulate energy for peak performance.
2. The Art of Portal Hunting: Discover how to unlock unexpected opportunities through deep presence, strategic relationship-building, and appreciation.
3. Navigating the Light & Shadow of Leadership: Develop the ability to own both your strengths and blind spots, leading with clarity and intention.
4. Master Somatic Intelligence: Experience real-time nervous system regulation techniques to shift from reactive to intentional behavior.
5. Integration & Execution: Participants will leave with a custom roadmap to implement these skills immediately.
   
   Why This is Different
   • Not a Passive Keynote – This is an interactive experience designed for deep learning, retention, and transformation.
   • Somatic & Cognitive Learning – We go beyond theory, engaging the body and nervous system for real-world, embodied change.
   • High-Level Relevance – Tailored specifically for Dental practitioners and entrepreneurs navigating growth, leadership, and personal evolution.

“Recipes for Esthetic Composite Restorations” 

Composite restorations have been widely indicated in daily practice due to replacing traditional amalgam-based materials and improving the esthetic outcome of polymer-based materials. In clinical situations, composite restorations are better indicated than other options due to their conservative approach, reversibility, and ability to repair, especially in younger patients. It is mandatory to recognize these specific clinical situations.
Among several techniques described in the literature, the layering technique is commonly claimed to reproduce the aspects of natural dentition and allow control of stress generated by polymerization shrinkage. However, the layering technique involves a deep acquaintance with adhesive procedures, material handling, and dental anatomy, making it complex and time-consuming.

To overcome such drawbacks, advances in polymer chemistry engineering and new layering techniques have been proposed. For instance, low-shrinkage composites have been developed for bulk-filling cavities, eliminating the steps required in traditional layering techniques. This substantially simplifies composite resin restoration procedures. Bulk filling allows the restoration to be built in either one or two layers, according to the type and features of the bulk-fill composite.

This lecture will discuss the indications of composites nowadays and the essential techniques for composite layering (dentin/chromatic/achromatic enamel), the modified technique using fewer layers, and low-shrinkage composites. The step-by-step sequence of each technique is described, along with the challenges and essentials of each one. Results obtained by research done at NYU will also be presented.

“Immediate Provisionalization of the Single-Tooth Implant”

In this hands-on, two-hour laboratory course, participants will learn the principles and techniques of ideal implant provisionalization, whether placed immediately or in a delayed approach. The program will cover key considerations for achieving optimal esthetics, function, and soft tissue support while providing the flexibility to work chairside or in a delayed setting. By the end of the session, attendees will gain the confidence and skills needed to provisionalize single-tooth implants predictably and efficiently.

“The Mouth-Body Connection: The Role of Periodontal Therapy in Systemic Wellness and Treatment Acceptance"

Periodontal disease is more than just an oral condition—it is a chronic inflammatory disease with far-reaching systemic consequences. Emerging research continues to uncover the profound links between periodontal health and conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, dementia, rheumatoid arthritis, and adverse pregnancy outcomes. This one-day program will explore the critical role of comprehensive periodontal therapy in diagnosing and managing these connections, equipping clinicians with the knowledge to improve both oral and systemic health outcomes for their patients. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of the biological mechanisms linking periodontitis to systemic disease, the latest diagnostic and treatment approaches, and the power of interdisciplinary collaboration in patient care. Most importantly, this course will provide strategies to effectively communicate these connections to patients, increasing their understanding, trust, and acceptance of comprehensive treatment—ultimately leading to better health and more successful clinical outcomes.
