We have some great new courses worth checking out even if you don't need the credits. Fundamentals of Veneer Preparation by Dr. David Hornbrook Being a pioneer in live-patient treatment courses, Dr. Hornbrook has mentored thousands of dentists chairside as they have prepared and placed porcelain veneers on their patients. The fundamentals of correct veneer preparation are rarely addressed in dental school and even skipped over in many of the cosmetic courses on smile designs and full-mouth rehabilitations. A thorough understanding of how to correctly prepare the teeth for veneers is as equally important as understanding ceramic materials and correct adhesive principles. Improper preparation can certainly compromise the aesthetics and functional final results. Dr. Hornbrook has often stated in lectures that too many dentists "prep and pray" for a predictable result and do not take the time to design the smile and utilize this design to prepare teeth correctly. In this presentation, he discusses the use of a wax-up done by the laboratory and the use of preparation matrices to ensure predictable and repeatable results. He also discusses detailed preparation designs including correct margin placement, how to alter preparation with diastemas, and how to address existing Class III composites and interproximal caries. A special section discusses preparation design for premolars with existing restorations and the use of three-quarter reverse crowns to provide conservative, long-lasting restorations for our patients. Small Diameter Implants for Removable Prosthetics by Dr. Paresh Patel This presentation demonstrates how the use of small-diameter implants offers the opportunity to provide implantretained overdentures, without additional surgery, to patients who would otherwise require surgical procedures to augment bone prior to implant placement. Success rates, potential patient benefits and patient satisfaction are discussed. This minimally invasive solution is a great place to start for general practitioners who wish to add implant placement to http://www.dentaltown.com/dentaltown/OnlineCE.aspx?action=DETAILS&cid=388 http://www.dentaltown.com/Dentaltown/OnlineCE.aspx?action=DETAILS&cid=394 http://www.dentaltown.com/dentaltown/OnlineCE.aspx?action=DETAILS&cid=389 http://www.dentaltown.com/dentaltown/OnlineCE.aspx?action=DETAILS&cid=336 http://www.dentaltown.com/dentaltown/OnlineCE.aspx?action=DETAILS&cid=337 http://www.dentaltown.com/dentaltown/OnlineCE.aspx?action=DETAILS&cid=385 http://www.dentaltown.com/dentaltown/OnlineCE.aspx?action=DETAILS&cid=386 http://www.dentaltown.com/dentaltown/OnlineCE.aspx?action=DETAILS&cid=340 http://www.dentaltown.com/dentaltown/OnlineCE.aspx?action=DETAILS&cid=403 http://www.dentaltown.com/Dentaltown/OnlineCE.aspx?action=DETAILS&cid=382 http://www.dentaltown.com/onlineCE http://www.dentaltown.com
