AACD 2021 Rockies is your chance to get away and relax with friends and colleagues after an incredibly challenging year. Many of us have not traveled much recently, instead spending more time at home as we adapted to a new normal. But this spring, it’s time to emerge! At this year’s 37th Annual AACD Scientific Session, we hope to offer the safest space possible by following safety guidelines set forth by the CDC and the state of Colorado to help protect all attendees as they reconnect, reenergize, and reengage.

THE GUMMY SMILE: CRACKING THE CODE Delve into the etiology of a gummy smile by investigating contributing factors and compensations that occur over one’s lifetime. Once established, we’ll discuss inherent compensations that patients make because of particular growth patterns and the potential deterioration that can occur. Finally, consider treatment options for gummy smile patients and explore treatment options for everyone.

IMPRESIONS...OUR JOURNEYS THROUGH THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF ESTHETICS This session will focus on our journey into esthetic dentistry and beyond. When, where, why and how did this all begin? Along the way, we will share invaluable pearls, both good, and bad, that have become proven staples in our everyday arsenals. From smile design, isolation and bonding, to composite artistry, we will demonstrate key sequences that allow us to deliver esthetic excellence on a daily basis.
While social distancing will make our workshops look a bit different than in the past, your Professional Education Committee is working hard to bring you the best educators and topics the help you master the latest techniques and explore the newest materials and methods
