Therefore, more and more dentists and dental specialists adopt CBCT technology in their practice. However, unlike traditional intra-oral and extra-oral radiolography, CBCT provides detail three-dimensional imaging not only in the traditional dental and maxillofacial region, but also in nasal cavities, paranasal sinuses, upper neck, Temporal bone, orbits, skull base, and cervical spine. Familiar with anatomy and common pathology in these extended areas would help both patients and dentists. Upon course completion, you will: Have fundamental knowledge of CBCT anatomy, variation of normal anatomy, CBCT appearances of common pathology, as well as common incidental findings in the traditional dental and maxillofacial region, and its extended territories, such as, nasal cavities, paranasal sinuses, upper neck, skull base, and cervical spine. Be familiar with common applications and national and international guidelines of CBCT. Be familiar with radiation safety and liability issues of CBCT.

Date: Time: Registration: Location: Tuition: Credits: April 10, 2015 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. 8:30 a.m. Temple University Student Faculty Center 3340 North Broad Street, Auditorium Philadelphia, PA 19140 Dentist $325 DT$125 6 (L/P) Everyday dentistry can present us with challenges for ordinary clinical problems. Bioactive materials have changed the way we practice dentistry. Bioactive materials include remineralizing materials, calcium containing pulp capping agents, and glass ionomer restoratives. The primary uses of bioactive materials is in vital pulp therapy and remineralizing. Vital pulp therapy is a critical aspect of all restorative treatment. The goal during the placement of any restoration, is to best maintain a vital and healthy pulp. There are times when vital pulp therapy includes those clinical situations where the pulp is at risk due to trauma, caries, or the placement and replacement of restorations over the restorative cycle of the life of a restoration. Although controversial, with the introduction of newer Portland cement materials, the treatment of asymptomatic, carious, vital teeth with pulp capping vital pulp therapy for mechanical and carious exposures can have levels of success. Even with initial success the patient should also understand that the tooth is still at risk for need for endodontic treatment at a later time. This program will present an overview of the evidence on the latest generation of Portland cement materials used for vital pulp therapy and decision-making and clinicial techniques for the use of these materials. Recent advances in remineralization therapies and glass inomer have changed the way we treat carious lesions. The increase in the aging population have created challenges due to root caries for restoration in cervical areas and adjacent to existing extensive restorations. Fiber reinforced composites provide alternative treatments for missing teeth, tooth reinforcement and periodontal splinting. Clinical techniques using fiber reinforced composites will be presented. After each presentation there will be a hands-on participation using the materials that have been presented. NOTE: Each participant will need to bring with them the following dental instruments: Amalgam condensers; PFI; Cotton pliers; Amalgam carrier; Composite compule gun; explorer. Upon course completion, you will: List the categories and indications for bioactive materials List the indications for vital pulp therapy Describe techniques and materials for successful vital pulp therapy List indications for remineralizing and fluoride releasing bioactive materials Describe techniques for successful use of glass ionomer restorative materials List the indications for the use for fiber reinforcement composites Describe the techniques for predictable fiber reinforcement for periodontal splinting, tooth cross splinting and single tooth direct placement fixed partial dentures Presenter Howard E.
