Multidisciplinary Diagnosis, Management &

Restorative Therapy for Pulpally Involved Teeth
 
 Periodontology - Dr. Joseph J. Zambon
 The diagnosis and treatment of periodontal disease has gone beyond
 just probing and scaling. This presentation will review newer methods of
 diagnosis and treatment as well as surgery conducive to predictable
 restorative therapy
  •  Microbial diagnosis of periodontal lesions
  •  Local antibiotic therapy - use of tetracycline fibers
  •  Pre-prosthetic periodontal surgery
  •  Guided tissue regeneration
Endodontics - Dr. Eugene A. Pantera, Jr.
Endodontic treatment is very predictable but becomes compromised
with the presence of clinical problems. This discussion will review how
various treatment problems can be approached and how they may impact on
restorative therapy.

            °    Diagnosing endodontic failures
            °    Retreatment
            °    Dealing with treatment errors
            °    Restorative considerations

 Prosthodontics - Dr. Davis Garlapo
 
Evolving rationale and recommendatios for the restoration of endodontically treated teeth has both maintained and called to question several previous considerations and approaches.  This presentation will use clinical treatment to demonstrate selection and design of current restorative approaches blending the theoretical with practical application.
 
  • Considerations for anterior teeth
  • Considerations for posterior teeth
  • Design considerations for posts
  • Material selection for posts and intermediate restoratives
  • Comparison of luting agents with posts
  • Recommendation and demonstration of  retro-fitting existing crowns with internal build-ups.
