Course Description:

This course will allow the attendee to better understand the current American Academy of Periodontology Disease Classification and considerations regarding implementation of non-surgical and surgical therapy for the management of periodontitis. We will review the Staging and Grading system which is now required in all dental school curriculum, National Boards and periodontal residency programs. We will look at indications and contraindications for mucogingival care, discuss the need for keratinized tissue in restorative care, dental implant management, and in the orthodontic process. We will also discuss management of extraction, immediate implant placement and immediate provisionalization in the maxillary anterior region. Finally, one of the most exciting areas of treatment is management of acute trauma to the maxillary anterior region in adolescents. We will discuss indications and options for care with specific focus on tooth autotransplantation procedures.
