From Concept to Clinic “What’s Coming in Dentistry”
In this presentation, we will explore the exciting advancements shaping the future of dentistry, both in the near and distant future. Cutting-edge technologies like 3D printing and artificial intelligence are transforming how dental care is delivered, enabling more precise, customized treatments for patients. Biomaterials are improving the effectiveness of dental implants, while regenerative dentistry holds the promise of regrowing teeth and tissues. Minimally invasive techniques, such as laser dentistry and digital impressions, are enhancing patient comfort and treatment outcomes. Nanotechnology is revolutionizing dental materials and preventive care, offering stronger restorations and more effective treatments. Robotics are entering dental surgery, offering unprecedented precision and reducing recovery times. Smart dental devices are being integrated into daily oral care, improving long-term health outcomes. Emerging trends in orthodontics, such as clear aligners and accelerated techniques, are making treatments more comfortable and efficient. Together, these advancements are leading us toward a future where dental care is more precise, personalized, and efficient for all.

“Kids put the “ICK” in SICK!”
We may love our kids, but any parent will tell you, the “bugs” they can pick up from daycare and school are no joke! Worse yet, as adults, we’re not necessarily immune to these infections. Oral health care providers often see the first signs of communicable infections in their dental chair. It is important to know how to manage and direct families for care at home. This lecture will provide a review of common infectious diseases including their clinical presentation, pathophysiology, management, and potential sequelae.

“Preventative Workplace Injuries for Dental Professionals”
As Physiotherapists we treat a lot of dentists for recurring injuries in their low back, mid-back or shoulders. This is typically due to prolonged postural positioning which can cause muscles to overcompensate and lead to injury. In this presentation we will take a practical approach to teach you techniques and exercises to help you optimize your health at work.
