Learning Objectives:

Understanding the different levels of prevention
2)
Acquiring important keys for long term success of dental treatments
3)
Discussing practical ways for prevention of dental diseases
In the rush to train and practice various
techniques, procedures and technologies, we sometimes skip important steps in
treatment planning and implementation. While trying to excel in our clinical
skills, we now and again, leave out the preventive, educational part of the
treatment plan and also the possibilities to maintain and improve by using the
natural healing capacity of the body. Treating disease starts with and is based
on prevention. This is true for both major diseases that we are mainly dealing
with in the dental profession - caries and periodontal diseases.
Our profession is sometimes too busy dealing
with improving our treatment results and too often abandons the preventive
interventions that should be our main goal. Each and every patient should be
engaged in a comprehensive and well-organized prevention program. Explaining
the disease, its etiology, risk factors, and ways for intervention and
prevention of all types to patients is our primary role, not filling teeth or
placing implants immediately after extractions.
Success in dental treatment is the ability to
bring patients to a stable condition in which they come for regular checkups
with no need for further treatment. This is success, not just a perfect color
match or a stable bone level around an implant. A patient who needs ongoing
dental treatment, again and again for years, should be considered our failure.
In this lecture, different level of
prevention will be discussed providing keys for enhancing long term success of
dental treatments.
