GM – Is It Possible? Predictability, Limitations, and Heroics in Tooth Preservation

Is It Possible? Predictability, Limitations, and Heroics in Tooth Preservation (In-person course)

3 CEU, Core • Member Price: $89 early (ends 9/22)

Registration cost details: $89 early (ends 9/22) / $99 regular (ends 9/30) / $109 late (begins 10/1)

With our joint presentation between an endodontist and periodontist, we hope to explore with you the complex decision-making process behind saving teeth. Through real-world cases and input from current literature, we will examine when preservation is predictable, when it is not, and when extraordinary measures we’ve taken have succeeded — or failed.

Course objectives:

• Review clinical and radiographic tools that are helpful in diagnosis, treatment planning, and determining prognosis.
• Recognize situations where treatment outcomes are less reliable and extraction may be the better choice.
• Discuss our “heroic” attempts with what has worked, what hasn’t, and the lessons we have learned from pushing the limits of biology and technique.
