Track 1: Orthodontics and Dental Implants

-
Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry that treats malocclusion, a condition in which the teeth are not correctly positioned when the mouth is closed. This results in an improper bite.
A dental implant is a surgical component that interfaces with the bone of the jaw or skull to support a dental prosthesis such as a crown, bridge, denture, facial prosthesis or to act as an orthodontic anchor.
Use of Orthodontics: 
  • Closing wide gaps between the teeth
  • Aligning the tips of the teeth
  • Straightening crooked teeth
  • Improving speech or chewing ability
  • Boosting the long-term health of gums and teeth
  • Preventing long-term excessive wear or trauma of the teeth
  • Treating an improper bite
Dental Implants can be used:
  • Dental crowns: A dental crown is a replacement tooth that is placed over a post (or an abutment) that is attached to the dental implant. Crowns are usually made of porcelain or ceramic material and are made to match the color of your natural teeth.
  • Dental bridge: A dental bridge is generally used for groups of two or three missing teeth. A bridge consists of two crowns (secured to dental implants) on either side of the gap and artificial teeth in between. The centerpiece of a dental bridge looks like natural teeth but is made of one solid piece.
  • Dentures: Implant-supported dentures are permanently attached to strategically placed implant posts. Because the dentures cannot be removed, many of the disadvantages associated with removable dentures are eliminated. Implant-supported dentures are stable and do not require the use of dental adhesives. This treatment is an excellent option for patients that are missing all of their teeth.

Periodontics Periodontics is the dental specialty focusing exclusively in the inflammatory disease that destroys the gums and other supporting structures around the teeth. A periodontist is a dentist who specializes in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal, or disease, and in the placement of dental implants. Periodontists receive extensive training in these areas, including three additional years of education beyond dental school. As specialists in periodontal disease, they are experts in the latest techniques for diagnosing and treating periodontal disease. They are also trained in cosmetic periodontal procedures.  Periodontists treat cases ranging from mild gingivitis to more severe periodontitis. Periodontists offer a wide range of treatments, such as scaling and root planning (the cleaning of infected root surfaces), root surface debridement (the removal of damaged tissue), and regenerative procedures (the reversal of lost bone and tissue).

Track 11: Dental Caries

Dental caries or cavities, more commonly known as tooth decay, are caused by a breakdown of the tooth enamel. This breakdown is the result of bacteria on teeth that breakdown food and produces acid that destroys tooth enamel and results in tooth decay. Water fluoridation, named by CDC as one of the ten great public health achievements of the 20th century, has been a major contributor to the decline of the rate of tooth decay. Studies have shown that water fluoridation can reduce the amount of decay in children’s teeth by 18-40%. In addition to fluoridated water, good oral hygiene can help prevent tooth decay: Brush twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste Clean between your teeth daily with floss or an interdental cleaner Eat nutritious and balanced meals and limit snacking Visit your dentist regularly for professional cleanings and oral examination Check with your dentist about use of supplemental fluoride, which strengthens your teeth, and about use of dental sealants (a
