Welcome to the Australian Dental Association Victorian Branch’s Continuing Professional Development Program for the second year of the CPD cycle to June 2015. The CPD Committee has developed a diverse and engaging program for you, aimed at being responsive to the varied needs of members at different stages of their professional careers. Being a member of the profession requires that we uphold the key principles of lifelong learning and professional development in it various forms. The ADAVB believes that continuing professional development is a fundamental member service and it remains a priority area in the strategic plan. It is a service that can directly respond to member needs and demands, with the purpose of assisting members both in their personal professional development and in meeting regulatory requirements. This year’s program is structured into several streams: • We have some familiar programs such as hands-on workshops and our “standard” stream where we present a range of topics relevant to daily clinical general practice. The “standard” stream is the ‘backbone’ of the CPD program with full-day programs on a Friday designed to meet the needs of the busy practitioner in providing efficient access to high quality CPD. • The half day ‘budget’ series run on Friday afternoons and is designed for those practitioners who would rather not incur the cost of a full-day program or are struggling with time. These programs are not budget in content; they are compact, time efficient and brilliant vitamin pills of CPD! • Finally, there is the ECE series - the Early Clinical Essentials, designed for the early career dentists, whether they are graduates from Australian dental schools or the Australian Dental Council. These are hearty, fundamental, current evidence-based programs. Running on Saturday mornings for a half-day, they are also wonderful “refreshers” for the more experienced practitioners, to check in with the latest clinical evidence. The CPD committee is so fortunate to have a supply of wonderful presenters who agree to take part in our program. Some of these are well known to you but we also have some new faces in this year’s program. The Committee feels it is important to look to the future to see who our knowledge leaders will be, and to provide opportunities for those at an earlier stage of their research and public presenting careers. We hope you will support our new presenters and also provide us with your feedback. SOME HIGHLIGHTS OF THE PROGRAM: • Half day lectures at ADAVB - Oral Surgery Red Flags, Endodontic Troubleshooting and Removable Prosthetics • Workshops - Clinical Photography – Melbourne Dental School, Onlays and Crowns – La Trobe Rural Health School, Implant Impressions – ADAVB, Primary Dentition - ADAVB • One-day Digital Dentistry Expo – an event where you can see the latest technology, equipment and materials in dentistry • Early Clinical Series, brought to you by the Recent Graduates & Students Committee This Handbook is intended to make it easy for you to make your CPD choices and register early, to avoid missing out; as many of the activities have limited places. It is our hope that you will find this program meets your CPD needs in providing you with a diverse range of topics in a number of different formats. As always, we are happy to receive your suggestions and comments, so please let me know how we are going. We are proud to support your CPD needs and hope to see you at these activities.

Prosthodontics Day Early Clinical Essentials Topics Onlays - materials, indications and cavity design Dr Simon Watson The continuing evolution of bonded restorative materials and clinical protocols has resulted in a renewed interest in relatively conservative cuspal coverage restorations when compared to conventional full coverage crowns. However, as these restorations are often more technique sensitive and may be more demanding on the clinician, it is easy to quickly lose confidence and return to more aggressive full coverage tooth preparations. This lecture will review indications for cuspal coverage restorations, treatment options for onlay designs, preparation guidelines and some clinical tips for impressions, cementation and maintenance. Which ceramic system? A review of current options from a clinical perspective Dr Zainab Hamudi In the last few decades there has been a trend towards expanding the use of all-ceramic restorations for more clinical applications. The advances in composition has improved the mechanical properties of currently available porcelain material, allowing more predictable use in more restorative situations. But does that mean that dental porcelain can replace any metal in restorative dentistry? Do we still need to use porcelain bonded to metal or even full metal restorations? Treatment planning and designing bridges Dr Kirthi Kosalram Resin-bonded bridges are a key component of fixed prosthodontics. Often neglected since the arrival of dental implants, this area of dentistry can be particularly useful in restoration of the dentate patient. Thus lecture aims to discuss important treatment considerations in planning resin-bonded bridges, preparation designs, materials and longevity. At the end of the lecture, participants will gain an understanding of case selection, clinical aspects of planning and bridge construction.

Clinical Essentials Topics Occlusal carious lesion revisited Professor Nigel King This presentation will consider arguments for “extension for prevention� in the modern era of dentistry and develop treatment strategies based on the extent of the lesion principally as classified according to an International Caries Detection and Assessment Systems (ICDAS) score. Consideration will be given to diagnostic techniques leading to caries preventive measures and, ultimately, restorative approaches principally with adhesive materials. Ectopic canines Professor Nigel King Maxillary permanent canines have the longest path of eruption. Consequently there is the possibility of them becoming ectopically located. Possible aetiological factors will be reviewed along with historical reports on impacted canines. Complications and subsequent sequelae of ectopic canines and possible clinical management options will be addressed. LA for endodontics Dr Emanuel Plataniotis Ideally we would like to provide our patients with pain-free endodontic management but obtaining pulpal anaesthesia in the lower arch can be challenging, especially when dealing with irreversible pulpitis. This presentation will look at the success rate of the various techniques in obtaining anaesthesia and how to maximize the success rate. Patient medical histories and the implications for dental treatment Dr Nova Gibson Facts not to miss and updated information. Clinical Record Keeping Dr Ben Keith For dental practitioners who have the need or desire to improve their record keeping and clinical note taking skills. To post or not to post, that is the question Dr Praveen Nathaniel Restoration of a root canal treated tooth requires consideration of numerous factors. Confusion can even arise as to whether a post is even needed, let alone questions like how long to make the post, what type of post to place and what cement to use. The newer fibre posts will be discussed.

Endodontic Troubleshooting Topics Endodontic Diagnosis Dr Mark Evans Endodontic diagnosis is one of the more complex areas of dental practice. To complicate matters patients with endodontic problems are often ‘squeezed in’ as emergencies with limited time, as well as the expectation by the patient that their pain will be diagnosed, treated and cured there and then. This can mean that assumptions are made, special tests rushed (or not performed at all) and incorrect diagnoses made. Mark will discuss common diagnostic and procedural errors and how to avoid them, using clinical examples from his experience in specialist endodontic practice. The Hot Pulp Dr Averil Tse When a patient presents with acute dental pain, there is a number of pressure points for the clinician to address. Firstly, the clinician needs to carry out a thorough examination to determine if the pain is related to an acute endodontic problem. Once the diagnosis of irreversible pulpitis is made, the real challenge then begins… providing treatment to relieve pain in a patient who is probably anxious. This presentation will address these issues as well as offer some tips on how to manage the ‘hot pulp’ in order to provide the most effective pain relief in the shortest amount of time.

Oral Surgery and Implants Day Early Clinical Essentials Topics Tips and tricks for the surgical extraction of teeth Dr Patrishia Bordbar Clinical examples will be used to illustrate importance of diagnosis, investigation and treatment planning surgical extractions. Steps necessary to carry out a surgical extraction and post-operative care will be outlined. Implant basics: planning my first implant – where to start Dr Stephen Cottrell The use of dental implants is a treatment option that must be considered for our patients when planning the replacement of a missing tooth. Patient selection and comprehensive treatment planning are crucial for success. In addition to the restorative aspects of treatment, one needs to take into account the surgical aspects of treatment even if you are not performing these procedures yourself. Lumps and bumps – What to treat, what to monitor, what to refer and what to not miss! Dr Elishka Marvan The complex anatomy of the orofacial region gives rise to a variety of lesions, varying from the innocuous to the highly sinister.

Primary Dentition Workshop Topics
NEW DATE

The Minimal Intervention Denistry (MID) approach to management of dental caries Professor Kerrod Hallett Despite significant advances in our understanding of both the biological and socio-behavioural determinants of childhood diseases, early childhood caries (ECC) remains a significant health issue for many preschool children. ECC is often well established in the first few years of life and is generally the result of poor diet and inappropriate infant feeding practice. A conceptual model for ECC as a disease of lifestyle rather than a disease of the teeth in isolation will be proposed. Effective management strategies require both parental understanding and professional risk analysis in the home setting combined with traditional preventive measures such as remineralisation and antimicrobial therapies.
TIME
Pulpotomy and Pulpectomy Dr Narisha Chawla Proximal carious lesions in primary molars are difficult to detect in the early stages; often the first sign is cavitation. Histological studies have shown that by this stage, pulpal inflammatory changes are likely present, particularly in first primary molars. This often necessitates pulp treatment. A comprehensive clinical examination and diagnostic radiographs, along with thorough history-taking from the parent and the child, can help to determine the status of the pulp and thus the most appropriate treatment. The aim of pulp therapy in the primary dentition is to retain the tooth until exfoliation. Once decision is made to retain the tooth, the options for pulp treatment include pulpotomy and pulpectomy.

Stainless Steel Crowns Dr Mala Desai Stainless steel crowns may be indicated as an interim restorative treatment option in permanent molars where there has been significant breakdown of the crown and pulpal sensitivity e.g. hypoplastic first permanent molars. The procedure is more complex than for primary crowns but the results are again reliable and predictable. Case selection through appropriate diagnosis is essential to the long term success of the procedures. In this practical and informative program, participants will be exposed to a background on the types of stainless steel crowns as well as indications and clinical techniques for the placement of stainless steel crowns. Hands on experience in restorative techniques involving placement of stainless steel crowns on replica teeth will be a key component in the course. Learning outcomes • Appropriate diagnosis • Correct placement of stainless steel crowns • Predictable restorative options

Clinical Photography Workshop
NEW
Workshop brought to you by:
Summary Clinical photography is not just about beautiful white teeth or cosmetic artistry. With today’s digital technology every dentist can chronicle what they see in the mouth, whether for general records or whenever the situation warrants photographic documentation. The closest thing to the reality of the mouth is a photograph. Radiographs do not show failing restorations, crack lines and wear patterns; notes cannot always clearly indicate the sequence of events in a clinical session; study models poorly represent the restored nature of teeth and the health of soft tissues. The routine use of digital photography can significantly enhance record-taking, validate clinical decisions and provide an impressive tool for patient education and practice marketing. Attendees will see reviews of all types of cameras and the armamentarium required to take extra and intra-oral pictures. People easily comprehend visual data and this course will show instant quality images can dramatically improve patient understanding and acceptance of treatment recommendations. This course will be an invaluable experience for general dentists and specialists and will be useful for general photography as well.
Topics • Photographs as part of records and communication in everyday dental practice • Images for patient education … ‘I want you to see what I see’ • The essence of exposure, aperture and ISO speed in digital photography and overcoming the difficulties of hand-held macro photography

Friday 1 May, 2015
What constitutes a good complete denture? The outcome of successful complete denture wearing depends as much on the patient’s ability to adapt as the clinical construction process. The clinician’s ability to provide appliances that fit well, contribute to the external facial profile in their form and function to the patient’s expectations are the three clinical parameters that lead to successful complete dentures. Where these three parameters fit into the provision of a good denture will be discussed. Good clinical and technical expertise assists patients in their adaptation process.

Partial dentures - Secrets to success. Partial dentures come in many different guises. The simple approach is the best and the rules for achieving this are simple. This lecture will outline some basic principles in providing a successful biologically acceptable appliance that is easily and comfortably worn.
Dr John Pearson
Are implants the answer to my denture problems? For some patients control of removable appliances is difficult to master. Maladaptive patients benefit from implants to assist in stabilizing dentures. However implants do not necessarily compensate for poor denture technique or neglected oral hygiene. The distinction between the maladaptive patient and poor denture construction techniques needs to be analysed before deciding on the necessity for implants.

The Pesky Lateral Incisor Topics Developmental issues with the lateral incisor Dr Sadna Rajan Lateral incisors are such interesting teeth in the dentition with a myriad of problems affecting them related to number, size, morphology, structure and eruption. The aeitology includes developmental, environmental and genetic causes. Managing the lateral incisor (considerations for management including: peg, build ups, fillings, RCT, crowns, removal) Dr Gordon Burt A decision process ultimately involves whether to keep a tooth, or pursue replacement. The patient’s age and other factors are important considerations in this process. The solutions can be simple, or much more complex. Potentially, an early decision can result in a lifetime commitment to managing the problem. Orthodontic management of the missing lateral incisor Dr Sean O’Callaghan The digital age has revolutionised the management of the missing lateral incisor. Computer aided diagnosis in conjunction with virtual treatment planning can allow the practitioner to make an informed choice whether to open or close the space. Indirect resin bonded bridge techniques (the detail on how to carry out, case selection, preparation, temporization, laboratory considerations, cementation.) Dr Harry Vlachodimitropoulos The resin bonded bridge offers patients an effective long term solution to replace a missing lateral incisor. With proper case selection and effective preparation of the supporting tooth a functional and aesthetic outcome can be achieved. Replacement with implants Dr Phil Yeung Knowledge of the long-term survival of single implants in cases of congenitally missing lateral incisors in the maxilla is limited. There are many factors to consider when heading down this path: developmental, anatomical, bio-mechanical and not least aesthetics.

Fixing the Smile How to create the perfect smile Topics What is the perfect smile? (Smile design and simulation software) Dr Andrew Dillon Every smile is unique - but what smile design elements transform the ordinary smile into the extraordinary and how do we convey this information to the patient? Soft tissue management for the perfect smile Dr Stephen Chen An integral part of achieving ideal dentofacial aesthetics is the soft tissues that frame the necks of the teeth. Healthy and symmetrical gingivae are a critical requirement, particularly in patients with a medium to high lip line. In this lecture, the relationship between tooth morphology and soft tissue phenotype (biotype) will be described. Subsequently, the steps required to achieve ideal soft tissue aesthetics will be discussed in relation to the natural teeth and prosthetic replacement of teeth. Achieving a harmonious smile through direct restorative procedures Dr Phil Zoldan Not every patient is able to access the range of options indirect aesthetic therapy offers, nor should every patient be subjected to irreversible procedures when there are many instances when conservative treatment is possible. This lecture will feature instances where direct resin restorative materials work well, and the advantages such treatment provides. The participant will learn how to plan treatment, choose materials for clinical situations and select colours. Achieving the perfect smile through indirect restorative techniques; diagnostic provisionals and temporisation Dr Praveen Nathaniel Indirect restorations are often regarded as the pinnacle of aesthetic dentistry and the easier way of achieving the perfect smile but how do you translate the work-up, whether it be by digital design or traditional wax-ups, to something the patient can view or technician can use? This presentation will go through techniques to simplify the procedure and achieve that great result for your patient. Achieving the perfect smile through orthodontics Dr Elaine Lim Orthodontic considerations will be discussed relating to the diagnosis and treatment planning for improving smile aesthetics with orthodontic techniques. The impact of growth, development and ageing on the smile will also be addressed. Issues such as occlusion will be raised as a functional factor that can impact smile aesthetics. Achieving the perfect smile - a multidisciplinary approach Dr Simon Wylie The restorative dentist needs to understand the limitations of modifying the smile with restoration of the teeth alone. The harmony of the smile is influenced by the teeth, periodontal tissues, lips and facial tissues. It is therefore important for the restorative dentist to understand what can and can’t be achieved through modification of the teeth alone and how other disciplines can support the restorative dental outcome. This lecture will attempt to highlight the support that can be offered by various dental disciplines in restoring the smile.

Digital Dentistry Expo Topics Digital records – complying with the Dental Board Dr Ben Keith Key principles for collecting, recording and maintaining clinical records. Understand the practitioner’s obligations to comply with the Board. Radiology goes digital Dr Bernard Koong Diagnostic imaging has rapidly evolved in recent decades. In dentistry, we can no longer rely purely on OPGs and intraoral views, whether with film, indirect or direct capture detectors. Computed tomographic techniques, multislice CT and cone beam CT, as well as MRI should be considered in daily general and specialist practice. This presentation will review the various intra-oral techniques, CT and MRI. The strengths and weaknesses, associated radiation dose levels delivered and application of these techniques will be emphasised. Orthodontics Dr Sean O’Callaghan Orthodontic treatment has taken a quantum leap through the virtual world with the integration of sophisticated technologies to produce a completely digital and highly advanced workflow. The 3D technology provides the digital diagnostic tools that assist in creating precise treatment outcomes. This advanced technology allows the orthodontist to create the desired treatment outcome ‘virtually’ so that every treatment option and goal can be assessed. Digital diagnosis and treatment planning has improved treatment quality, reduced treatment time, significantly lowered patient discomfort while delivering consistently outstanding results. Photography/computer aided smile design (want this to include principles of smile design etc) Dr David Dunn Digital dentistry has impacted the profession and will continue to do so further in the future. The use of digital analysis to better communicate with patients, other treating team members and the laboratory is one of the key benefits of digital smile design technology. Caries diagnosis/perio toys/education resources Professor Laurie Walsh This lecture will summarise the latest data on clinical diagnostics to assist in recognizing dental caries and periodontal diseases at their earliest time, to guide early intervention and treatment and show how diagnostic tools can help minimize intervention by providing endpoints for clinical treatment procedures. Digital Impressions and chairside milling (inc. Materials) Dr Chris Evans Digital impressions are being marketed heavily to practitioners as the panacea to impression problems, promising faster, more efficient and more accurate results when compared to conventional polyvinyl siloxane impressions. Several of factors need to be carefully considered when deciding to use digital impressions when compared to conventional techniques. Dr Evans has been using digital impressions for the past two years and will share the advantages / disadvantages, pitfalls and economics of digital technology for prosthodontics. CAD/CAM indirect restorations, implant abutments Dr Philip Tan Indirect restoration design and manufacture is a central component of the digital dentistry revolution. The presentation will touch on the various methods of digitisation before discussing the applications of indirect technique for conventional fixed prosthodontics and implant restorations.

This year, over 2,000 dentists across Australia are likely to make an insurance claim. Who’ll take care of you?
Eight years ago only 1 dentist in 30 experienced the stress of a claim. But regulators, health agencies and plaintiff lawyers have been aggressively targeting dentists and last year the figure was 1 in 11*. Claims are now more frequent, and when one does come it hits like a ton of bricks. Without the right cover livelihoods can be wiped out and reputations ruined. ADAVB has scrutinised all the options and has chosen Guild Insurance as providing the best value for our members. That’s why we continue to partner with Guild and believe that together we are the best team to look after you.
You’ve made the right choice.
Insurance issued by Guild Insurance Ltd, ABN 55 004 538 863, AFSL 233791 and subject to terms, conditions and exclusions. Guild Insurance supports the ADAVB through the payment of referral fees. ADAVB is an authorised representative of Guild Insurance. This document contains general advice only and doesn’t consider your personal circumstances. It is important to consider these matters and read the PDS and policy before you make a decision about an insurance product. You can get a copy of the PDS by calling 1800 810 213. *Based on claims made by dentists who were members of ADAVB, ADASA and ADATAS and insured by Guild Insurance over the 12 months to 30 June 2013.
