The question remains\, what is the best choice of donor material to use for sinus grafting? This course will not only provide hands-on laboratory session to familiarize the participant with the surgical techniques\, but also reveal the science behind selection of the appropriate donor material. The surgical technique will be demonstrated from flap design to accessing the sinus floor to proper soft tissue closure and finally to managing complications associated with sinus floor graft. Hands-on workshop will be performed on goat heads or plastic models.Attendance is strictly limited to maintain high instructor to participant ratio. \n\n\n\nLearning Topics:– Surgical approaches: lateral window and crestal approach– Anatomy and physiology of the maxillary sinus– Diagnosis and treatment planning– 3D imaging for maxillary sinus augmentation– Selection of donor material– Soft tissue management– Complications and management URL:https://www.cda.org/event-details/sinus-graft-workshop/ CATEGORIES:Affiliate In-Person Event END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20241213T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20241213T170000 DTSTAMP:20250505T004529 CREATED:20241125T182059Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241125T182103Z UID:10000581-1734080400-1734109200@www.cda.org SUMMARY:The Efficacy of Hypnosis\, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Biofeedback for the Alleviation of Anxiety\, Pain and Phobias in the Dental Patient DESCRIPTION:For over a century hypnosis has been used as an effective method for the treatment of many different issues in medicine and dentistry. In the field of orofacial pain\, we are often faced with issues whose etiology can often\, to say the least\, be profoundly puzzling. From Bruxism and Gagging to TMD and Migraine\, Hypnotherapy has been time tested and scientifically proven to be an effective adjunct to traditional therapy. While not using it to get the patient to walk like a chicken and quack like a duck\, we can now effectively decrease anxiety\, improve communication and rapport\, diminish pain and improve treatment compliance. This course will take place over 2 days. The attendees will learn the art of hypnotherapy from simple induction techniques\, to deepening procedures through to suggestion methods. Each attendee will receive hands on training experiencing the state of hypnosis as well as how to help their fellow students experience it for themselves. Each student will leave this course with a very effective addition to their toolbox. As an added component\, there will also be a presentation of Biofeedback\, Heart Rate Variability and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.Topics will include:– Hypnosis and its application to dentistry– Basic deepening\, relaxation\, visualization\, and suggestions techniques– Clinical applications – anxiety\, phobias\, pain management– Communication and rapport– Hypnosis and induction techniques– Biofeedback\, heart-rate variability to aid in reducing anxiety and promoting healing– Clinical applications – pain management\, migraine\, TMD\, hypno-anesthesia URL:https://www.cda.org/event-details/the-efficacy-of-hypnosis-cognitive-behavioral-therapy-and-biofeedback-for-the-alleviation-of-anxiety-pain-and-phobias-in-the-dental-patient/ CATEGORIES:Affiliate In-Person Event END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20241212T183000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20241212T203000 DTSTAMP:20250505T004529 CREATED:20241002T161204Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250122T223726Z UID:10000549-1734028200-1734035400@www.cda.org SUMMARY:CPR/BLS DESCRIPTION:Description The American Heart Association’s (AHA) Basic Life Support (BLS) course trains participants to promptly recognize several life-threatening emergencies\, give high-quality chest compressions\, deliver appropriate ventilation\, and provide early use of an AED.
