This program focuses on these treatments:

• 15 second troughing instead of using retraction cord
• Instant chariside gingivectomies, gingivoplasty, bacterial decontamination, LAPT, bio stimulation and much more

The Carie Scan PRO is the latest and most accurate diagnostic tool for the clinical practice. The CarieScan PRO permits dental professionals to evaluate decay in teeth and provide information about whether the tissue is healthy, in the early stages of decay or already significantly decayed. The diagnostic results are displayed on a LCD screen and the clear numeric information is easily documented into the patient's chart to monitor and assess disease status and progress (or improvement).
Learning outcomes:

• to become familiar with the newest and most accurate caries diagnosis technology
• to understand the full scope of soft tissue laser treatment potential in the practice
• to successfully integrate these new and inexpensive technologies into the practice

Learning Objectives
• Understand the limitations and advantages of DIode soft tissue lasers for gingivectomies, exposures and frenectomies.
• Review diagnostic factors limiting soft tissue procedures (pocket depth, keratinized tissue.
• Review smile design principles and goals and how they relate to post-orthodontic gingival hypertrophy.

Using case studies, this lecture will focus on:
• crown troughing
• smile design
• oral lesions
• gingivectomy
• tissue troughing
• frenectomy
• and more!

Dr. Louis Chmura will show you why you will absolutely want to begin using a soft tissue laser in your orthodontic office. This essential piece of equipment not only helps you complete treatment earlier, but also allows you to provide better results. With the proper training, even complicated and involved procedures can be performed easily, safely and reliably. Using specific examples, Dr. Chmura will show you how incorporating a diode will make treating your patients easier for you and your staff.

In this lecture, attendees will be better able to understand how the soft tissue diode wavelengths might be utilized in regular clinical practice. Information on various procedures will be covered, and clinical tips for new users will be broached. The attendee should leave with a better understanding of how this portable, efficient and economic laser wavelength might be used in their daily practice.
