This program promises to provide a potpourri of clinically relevant topics that we as clinicians can implement immediately into our practices to improve the quality of patient care and satisfaction. At the completion of this course, participants should be able to: • Describe the Four Global Diagnoses • Describe the “Five CORE Questions” with their corresponding treatment options • Better communicate with the interdisciplinary team • Discuss the mechanics of the DSD concept • Implement the DSD concept • Utilize the Global Diagnosis system • Recognize the unique synergy between the two concepts • Identify the advantages of CT guided implant placement in planning • Effectively integrate implants into the comprehensive rehabilitation • Discuss concepts for phasing long term or transitional treatment • List factors that affect esthetic success in an implant supported restoration • Better fabricate immediate implant provisional restorations • Discuss the pros and cons of screw retained versus cemented implant restorations • Describe abutment design parameters This course is designed for dentists, auxilliaries and other dental professionals. Although every effort is made to have a comfortable temperature in the meeting room, we realize everyone’s comfort zone is different.

Saturday, May 23, 20207:15 am Continental Breakfast and Registration7:45 am Welcome and Introduction to Course - Dr. Kim Capehart8:00 am Global Diagnosis - A New Vision of Dental Diagnosis and Treatment Planning - Dr. J. William Robbins
With the increased emphasis on interdisciplinary treatment in recent years, the deficiencies associated with traditional methods of diagnosis and treatment planning have become more evident and problematic. Historically, the treatment plan was primarily dictated by information provided by study casts which were mounted on a sophisticated articulator in centric relation. At that time in history, the primary tools available for treating the complex restorative patient were functional crown lengthening surgery and increasing the vertical dimension of occlusion. The treatment plan was simply based on restorative space, anterior tooth coupling and resistance and retention form of the final preparations, with no focus on placing the teeth in the correct position in the face. Practitioners did not have access to advanced periodontal, orthodontic, orthognathic surgery and plastic surgery tools that are currently available. With the advent and common usage of these new treatment modalities, the historical method of diagnosis and treatment planning is no longer adequately serving our profession. It is the purpose of this course to provide a systematic approach to diagnosis and treatment planning the complex interdisciplinary dental patient with a common language that may be used by the orthodontist, periodontist, and oral and maxillofacial surgeon, as well as the restorative dentist. The four Global Diagnoses which dictate all interdisciplinary treatment planning will be defined. A set of questions will then be presented which will aid the interdisciplinary team in the diagnosis and treatment planning of the complex dental patient.

CONFERENCE SCHEDULE Sunday, May 24, 20207:15 am Continental Breakfast7:45 am Global Diagnosis and Digital Smile Design – A New Synergy Dr. J. William Robbins
Digital smile design (DSD) is an innovative concept which allows the dentist to conceptually design the positions of the teeth and gingiva using a computer simulation. It is not only useful for the restorative dentist but also aids in communication with the specialists and laboratory technicians that will be involved in the treatment. However, the greatest advantage of the DSD simulation is in the communication with the patient. Using a printed cast of the simulation, a stint is constructed that is used for the motivational mockup in the patient’s mouth. Once the projected final outcome is viewed and accepted by the patient, the details of the treatment plan can be finalized. This is where the Global Diagnosis concepts are implemented to determine the etiology of the malpositioned teeth and gingiva and to then create a sequenced treatment plan. It is the purpose of this lecture to demonstrate the unique synergy between these two concepts.

Monday, May 25, 20207:15 am Continental Breakfast7:45 am The Dental Implant in Practice: Concepts for Restorative Success - Dr. Brad Hall
The dental implant is an indispensable tool in any comprehensive restorative practice. However, without thoughtful application, this asset can quickly become a liability for patient and clinician. Whether it be a single anterior restoration, combination cases, or full fixed, this presentation will highlight strategies and techniques for implant utilization in a general practice to increase predictability, simplify processes, and enhance outcomes.
