PROGRAM
8:30 | Registration
9:00 | Intro & Career Journeys
How laser changes day to day dentistry and what we do now, that we never did before. A quick value and practice-change assessment.
09:15 | Lasers in Endo using Diode lasers and Er,Cr:YSGG lasers
Attendants will learn and see how to clean, shape, disinfect and obturate root canals in a single visit, using the “Dual Wavelength Technique”.
10:15 | Break
10:30 | Empowered Perio with different wavelengths
Preserving teeth and ailing implants is a life changing experience for the compromised patient. Clinical cases will prove not only what can be achieved, but also why Laser assisted treatment is the choice of treatment by world leaders in periodontology.
11:30 | Photobiomodulation
During this presentation, clinical cases will show the amazing effect a laser beam has on the healing process of damaged cells, combating the inflammatory process after injury or surgery, acceleration of tissue regeneration and the management of acute and chronic pain.
12:30 | Lunch
13:00 | Lasers in Surgery & Restorative Cases
Learn how different kinds of surgical procedures can be done with laser only. For example, gingivectomy, frenectomy, biopsy, laser bandage, pigmentation removal, closed flap crown length, apisectomy and tori removal. With laser, restorative procedures are beneficial and adjunctive. Laser cavity preparation restorations with better bond preperation, smear layer removal, bactericidal, and growth factors are stimulated in the bone and tooth to advance healing and restoration. Participants will learn that a good number of soft-tissue and hard-tissue procedures can be done either with a diode laser or with an Er,Cr:YSGG laser. Benefits for the patients and for the doctor will be explained, as well as the positive outcomes for this kind of laser-supported surgery.
14:00 | Laser Physics & Safety [Exam Prep]
Attendees will be taught the basics of laser physics, tissue interaction, characteristics of individual wavelengths, safety and regulatory issues, as well as an overview of clinical uses.
14:30 | Q&A
14:50 | Break
15:00 | WCLI Associate Fellowship Exam [Optional]
16:00 | Certification & End
