This course has been designed to describe important factors that may make the long-term success of root canal therapy more predictable. At the end of this course, the clinician will be able to: 1. Identify the core cause of endodontic disease. 2. Recognize the importance of making a proper diagnosis and apply current skills to do so. 3. Compare the appropriate size and shape of an access canal to one that may be too small for ideal treatment. 4. Describe the benefits of different intracanal irrigants and apply techniques for successfully utilizing sodium hydrochloride. 5.

This course will introduce currently accepted oral health concepts, point out the role of the dentist in accomplishing good oral health in children and discuss appropriate methods of diagnosis, prevention and intervention. This lecture will give you an understanding of oral evaluation techniques, the comparison of the medical vs. the surgical model, managing oral disease through advanced diagnostic tools, prevention materials, risk assessment tools, data collection tools and clinically smart dental materials.

Today, our understanding of the cause and progress of caries has changed to the extent that we have entirely new ways of managing the caries as a disease. In order to be effective, it requires an in depth knowledge of prevention, remineralization and adhesion. This approach requires that you first control caries as a disease, then repair the damage in the least invasive way. A total surgical approach is no longer needed as we are now able to remineralize and heal parts of a carious lesion.
