| The
Periodontal Pocket:
Treat
or Refer? | | | | |
| Do you want your dental practice to treat
more periodontal disease by improving
diagnostic procedures and motivating
recalcitrant patients to accept treatment?
Do you want to know how you can increase
the amount of crown and bridge, implant, and
esthetic dentistry performed in your office by
collaborating with a periodontist?
This course will show how to do both. It will also
teach you how to improve your treatment results with
challenging periodontal patients as well as how to
avoid the risks of disease progression, bone and tooth
loss, and treatment failure. Our guest speaker, Dr. John Sottosanti, is a gifted
clinician/teacher who is well known for his integration
of scientific and clinical advances
into his practice and teaching
programs. He will share with
you the subtleties of a correct
diagnosis and treatment plan
as well as the best therapy,
non-surgical or surgical, to
control the disease and
restore optimal periodontal
health.
