Overview

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

Saliva is one of the body’s most effective means for protecting the tooth enamel against acid. It

is important to have adequate saliva to be a pH buffer. When plaque pH drops below 5.5, tooth

decay can occur. Studies indicate that saliva may be useful for detecting heart disease, acid

reflux, diabetes and other conditions. It’s time to shift dentistry focus

from finding the cavity to treating the caries disease process. The good news is this can bring new profit to your

practice. When patients can see, understand and own the disease process that has been invisible in the past; watching and waiting for breakdown makes no sense. This hands-on, interactive course focuses on three minimally invasive levels of prevention and early treatment using up-to-date technologies and systems.

OBJECTIVES:

  •   Identify 3 minimally invasive levels of new prevention

  •   Incorporate risk assessment routinely into practice

  •   Translate evidence based science into language patients can understand

  •   Create decision tress to determine productive individualized diagnosis and treatment strategies

  •   Optimize dental benefit coding with simple documentation support
