In this episode, we focus on the link between periodontal disease and the systemic effects on the human body. There's more to oral hygiene than just saving our teeth, so let's dive into this fascinating episode with Dr Reena Wadia to learn more about the importance of perio and how it is associated with the rest of our health. https://youtu.be/fldpB_8h2Dc Watch GF024 on Youtube Key Takeaways: There is a strong link between gum health and systemic health. Diabetes and cardiovascular disease are key conditions linked to gum health. Understanding correlation vs. causation is crucial in dental practice. Effective communication with patients can improve treatment outcomes. Treating pregnant patients for periodontal health is safe and beneficial. Proper diagnosis is essential for effective dental treatment. Patients are often unaware of the links between gum health and overall wellness. Motivating patients with health benefits can enhance compliance. Evidence-based dentistry is vital for accurate patient information. Add the word diagnosis to templates for clarity. Team collaboration (dental and medical practices) enhances patient care effectiveness. Screening for conditions like diabetes can save lives. Holistic care in dentistry is becoming increasingly important. A periodontal protocol is crucial for consistent care. Need to Read it? Check out the Full Episode Transcript below!

What are the steps involved in Functional Crown Lengthening? Which scenarios/teeth are best for this type of surgery? What is biologic width and why should we care? Is Bone sounding a diagnostic test, or just a genre of music? The answer to these questions and a lot more can be found in this packed episode with Dr Hiten Halai. We cover the right protocols when crown lengthening and understand the difference between aesthetic and functional crown lengthening.  https://youtu.be/KRlEtz16I8c Watch PDP207 on Youtube Protrusive Dental Pearl - Bone Sounding Using a periodontal probe, go into the depth of the sulcus, pushing deeply until you hit bone, all while recording the measurement with the probe. This measurement will then guide you on how to carry out your crown lengthening procedure. Push hard to pass the connective tissue and ensure you are touching the bone.

Managing time effectively is crucial for specialists with busy schedules. Functional crown lengthening is often underutilized in practice. Aesthetic crown lengthening can lead to complications if not done correctly. Understanding biologic width is essential for successful crown lengthening procedures. Preoperative assessments are critical for determining candidacy for crown lengthening. The type of gingival tissue affects surgical outcomes and healing. Proper surgical techniques can prevent complications and ensure better healing. Postoperative care is vital for achieving desired aesthetic results. Continuous education and mentorship are important for dental professionals. This episode is eligible for 1 CE credit via the quiz on Protrusive Guidance.  This episode meets GDC Outcome C. ADG Code: 490 PERIODONTICS (Mucogingival management)  Aim: To enhance knowledge and practical understanding of crown lengthening procedures, with a focus on distinguishing between aesthetic and functional crown lengthening, and the importance of biologic width in achieving predictable clinical outcomes. Learning Outcomes: Identify the key differences between aesthetic and functional crown lengthening and the clinical scenarios in which each is most appropriate. Demonstrate an understanding of biologic width and its significance in the success of crown lengthening procedures, including the impact on long-term periodontal health. Apply the principles of bone sounding to accurately assess the need for crown lengthening and ensure optimal restoration outcomes, minimising risks such as gingival recession and bone loss.

We've all seen the white spot lesions on our patients teeth. By any measure, they're not particularly aesthetic and most patients would love them to disappear. So why is it that for a large majority of patients that are actually visiting their dentist regularly, these lesions persist and essentially detract from their smile. The only logical answer I can come up with is that many dentists are not utilizing something called resin infiltration. It's a simple procedure that is remarkably effective in essentially making white spot lesions disappear. To tell us all about it is our guest Irene Iancu. Irene is a Canadian RRDH and entrepreneur with experience in various specialties like Pediatrics, Orthodontics, and Periodontics, she has combined all these elements in her start-up dental practice in Toronto, Toothlife Studio.

So, you want to be a dentist. This post will guide you through the dental school admissions process and offer tips on how to get accepted. What you'll learn:Overview of the dental school application process: Primary, secondaries and interviewsGeneral dental school application timeline and informationSchool-specific deadlines for the primary applicationAcademic requirements (Courses, GPA, DAT)Dental admissions test (DAT)Experience requirements for dental schoolHow to choose where to apply?Components of the ADEA AADSAS ApplicationRecommendations: Whom to ask? What should dental school letters of recommendation include?Secondary applications Dental schools that require secondary applicationsDental school interviewsWondering If Dental School Is For You?Applying to dental school? To become a dentist, you will need to obtain either a doctor of dental surgery or doctor of dental medicine degree. It's the same curriculum. The school that you attend will determine the one you receive. There is no difference between them. Dental education is similar to medical education in that a bachelor's degree is required to apply to dental school and a dental education is a commitment of four years with the option of pursuing a specialty with additional study.   Similar to practicing medicine, dentistry maintains the same high ethical standards and long-term commitment to education through continuing education requirements.   Dental students can pursue specialties in Dental Anesthesiology, Dental Public Health, Endodontics, Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology, Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Oral Medicine, Orofacial Pain, Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, Pediatric Dentistry, Periodontics, and Prosthodontics through additional professional training. For more information about these specialties please see the National Commission on Recognition of Dental Specialties and Certifying Boards website.   The best way to determine whether you would like to pursue dentistry and any of these pathways would be to shadow dentists virtually and/or in person, when possible. The Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry of the University of Southern California offers a virtual shadowing program. Keep in mind that many schools prefer in-person shadowing hours, but some schools will accept virtual shadowing hours, given the limitations in place because of the pandemic.  Overview of the dental school application process: Primary, secondaries and interviews The first step in applying to dental school is registering for a DENTPIN, which is a Dental Personal Identifier Number. This number is required to take the DAT (Dental Admission Test) and to apply to dental programs through the Associated American Dental Schools Application Service (AADSAS) of the ADEA (American Dental Education Association) and any other dental school application systems. This number will be associated with all your subsequent dental exams and licensing and will stay with you throughout your dental education and career. For those of you who have graduated from a dental program outside the United States, there is a separate application system through which to apply to dental programs in the United States. The dental application is similar to the medical school application process because it includes three major steps that take a year to complete: Submitting the primary application Returning secondary applications Participating in interviews. General dental school application timeline and information The ADEA's AADSAS primary application opens mid-May, with the earliest submission date falling in mid-June. Once all of your transcripts have been received by the AADSAS, they can process your application, which takes four to six weeks. It costs $259 to apply to one school and $112 for each additional school. Please note that you can add more schools to your application at any time until their deadline.
