Conference Speakers
Dr. Robert Pesun
“Definitive Management of Hypoplastic & Hypomineralized Teeth”
An evidence-based session designed specifically for dental professionals facing the complex clinical challenge of teeth that erupt structurally compromised.
This comprehensive lecture breaks down the critical differences between hypoplasia and hypomineralization, offering actionable, tiered treatment protocols for Molar Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH), Amelogenesis Imperfecta (AI), and Dentinogenesis Imperfecta (DI). From composite to stainless steel crowns and to planning the strategic early extraction of first permanent molars for spontaneous space closure, you will leave equipped to transition from reactive patchwork dentistry to definitive, long-term restorative success for your youngest patients.

“Getting the YES! Workflows, Patient Conversations, and Incorporating Technology”
Getting the YES! Workflows, Patient Conversations, and Incorporating Technology
Deciding to embark on a digital transformation is a crucial milestone for any general dentist practice. Embracing a digital platform unlocks a selection of powerful tools that not only empower patients to comprehend their oral health conditions better but also serve as a catalyst in boosting treatment acceptance rates through enhanced visual communication. Discover how implementing an optimized workflow can leverage these available digital tools and propel your practice towards success.
Dr. Tom Colina
“Beyond the Jaw: TMD, Pain and Sleep in the Growing Patient”
A clinically oriented presentation exploring TMD, orofacial pain and sleep in the growing patient, with emphasis on clinical recognition, relevant symptom patterns, pain-sleep relationships and principles of early management.
Dr. Natasha Holder
“Before They Erupt: What Every Dentist Treating Kids Should Know About Third Molars”
Third molars are forming in our young patients years before anyone considers extraction, and what we do in those years matters. This evidence-based session covers when to image, what to watch for, how to counsel families on crowding myths, and when to refer. Case-based and practical for general and pediatric dentists.
Dr. Leslie Pesun & Dr. Daniel Su
“Implant Occlusion: Strategies for Long-Term Success from Planning to Maintenance”
While dental implants are a highly predictable restorative solution, unmanaged occlusal forces remain a primary risk factor for long-term mechanical and biological complications. This presentation breaks down the critical role of occlusion in implant success for the entire dental team. We will explore practical strategies for assessing and adjusting occlusal forces on pre-existing implants, as well as the essential steps for engineering an ideal occlusal scheme during the initial planning and placement stages. Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of how proactive planning and routine maintenance protect the patient’s implant.
