“Couch Jumping and Coffee Table Surfing: When Early Childhood Sports Go Wrong”
Without question, the athletic endeavours and feats of the young child often take place away from the arena of organized sport. Unfortunately, when their athleticism goes awry, dentists are often required.
This lecture will provide a focused overview of the short and long term management of dental trauma in the primary dentition, dental growth and development, the psychology of tooth loss, and restorative options that exist.
By exploring these topics, members of the dental team will gain valuable insights into how to manage dental trauma in the primary dentition and answer the questions parents will ask!
Dr. Hans Stasiuk
Morning Presentation: Why Is Sports Dentistry Important?
Introduction to Sports Dentistry focusing on the roles of Dentists and Team/Sports Dentists in treating dental injuries on-site and in your office. You may be attending as a spectator when a dental injury occurs, but you may be the only dentist present. This presentation will make you more comfortable in treating sport-related dental emergencies. The most common sports-related dental injuries will be discussed.
Afternoon Presentation: Prevention of Sports-related Dental Trauma
One of the dentists’ goals is to prevent dental problems. This presentation will discuss preventing dental injuries during sports participation, including custom-fabricated mouthguards. It will also provide tips on how to become involved with teams.
Adam Bighill
“Need for Custom Mouthguards in Sport”
I will go over the need for custom mouthgaurds for athletes, and especially in my case, an athlete with a cleft lip and palate.
Dr. Blair Dalgleish
“When Things Really Go Wrong – What Happens in the Hospital”
Dr. Milos Lekic
Who knew? Orthodontic patients play sports too!
As dental professionals, we often view the treatment we propose, and provide, independent from the many other areas of life our patients engage in. Yet the reality is, important treatment considerations exist for athletically involved patients who are in, or considering, orthodontic care.
By examining the impact of sport and orthodontics, this lecture will explore a number of common questions. Can orthodontics make sport safer? How can I fit a mouth guard if my teeth are moving? How long after trauma before forces on teeth can be applied? And several more!
