Anatomically Centered Endodontics is not about a new instrument or a new material, but rather the combination of scientifically proven techniques and materials in one simple, biologically driven, and inexpensive workflow.
Speaker: Keith Evans, DMD, MS
This lecture session will address endodontics from both an advanced perspective and from a restorative point of view. The key in making endodontics profitable is being able to do cases consistently well and in manner that leads directly to the final restoration.
Speaker: Anne L. Koch, DMD
As a result of recent improvements in metallurgy, enhanced designs, and innovative rotary file motions, we now need to understand how these changes affect clinical instrumentation. Furthermore, we must take advantage of these improvements to create an instrumentation protocol that combines Safety with Simplicity.

Dr. Paresh Patel will review dental cases where the use of a soft tissue diode laser resulted in enhanced outcomes for the patient and the clinical practice. He will discuss diode use for perio SC/RP, post-ortho procedures, gingival sculpting, crown & bridge, as well as implant recovery.
Dr. Bob Margeas will guide participants, step-by-step, through his layering technique and rationale for the selection of opacities and translucent composite. In addition, participants will learn efficient polishing and surface texturizing techniques to ensure a natural esthetic result.
Endodontic treatment has evolved significantly from simple beginnings, and the success rate of this treatment has increased dramatically in the past decade or so, allowing clinicians to save teeth predictably and safely. But how successful is todays endodontic therapy? Is it still worth saving teeth? This course will explore the classic and current literature and report practically on how we can achieve long-term success in endodontic treatment without using expensive and/or complex techniques.
Anatomically oriented and conservative preparation of the root canal system is the best approach for long-term success in endodontics. The Anatomically Centered Approach proposed in this course allows us to sacrifice less dentin, enhance the irrigation process significantly, and seal the root canal system with the best science has to offer today. Anatomically Centered Endodontics is not about a new instrument, equipment or product, but the combination of scientifically proven techniques and materials in one simple, biologically driven, and inexpensive workflow. The primary purpose of this course is to help clinicians obtain long-term success in their endodontic cases without the need for complex or expensive equipment while providing the best possible care to their patients.
This hands-on workshop introduces participants to a technique that will be straight forward and easy to master. All attendees will watch Dr. Koch demonstrate the Blend technique and will then have the opportunity themselves to perform it. Dr. Koch, who first introduced hydraulic condensa-tion using a bioceramic cement in 2006, will additionally demonstrate the simplicity of this technique. After attending this workshop, you will improve the quality of your endodontics along with increasing your profitability.
In this hands-on session, participants will learn all the benefits associated with constant taper preparations. The Blend technique, which employs both heat-treated and nonheat-treated instruments, will be introduced and fully explained. Emphasis will also be on the current use of bioceramic technology in modern endodontics. At all times, piezo electric ultrasonics will be available.
The incidence of dental trauma is highest in the first two decades of life, and hence, the young permanent anterior teeth are of particular importance in traumatic injuries. Successful retention of these teeth is paramount to long-term esthetic, function and health of not just the oral cavity but also the physiological impact the loss may have on these young patients. This presentation reviews the latest guidelines by IADT and AAE, to understand how and why they have changed over time. Treatment options and prognosis for each type of injury based on the biological goals is reviewed, and current literature discussed.
