Continuing Education Schedule

High-Resolution Cone Beam Computed Tomography (HR-CBCT)

With Martin D. Levin, DMD

Lunch and Learn

High-resolution Cone Beam Computed Tomography (HR-CBCT) has many clinical applications in dentistry. According to the American Academy of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology (AAOMR), improved visualization of the TMJ, diseases of the jaw, and dental implant treatment planning are among the chief benefits of CT imaging. The newest addition to the dental cone beam armamentarium is the Kodak 9000 3D focused field HR-CBCT unit, which images a 50 mm x 37 mm area with greatly reduced radiation while providing very high resolution 3-D volumetric renderings.

Educational objectives:

1. Describe focused field HR-CBCT imaging and how it differs from standard dental CBCTs and medical CTs.

2. Understand how 3-D volumetric imaging can improve treatment planning and treatment for lesions of endodontic origin.

3. Learn how to select cases for focused field HR-CBCT examination.

Endodontic Diagnosis and Troubleshooting Workshop

With Martin D. Levin, DMD

Thursday, August 5, 2008 5:30 pm until 7:00 pm

All of us have evaluated patients for lesions of endodontic origin who don't quite fit in the neat little categories that we learned about in dental school. This course will start with a review of basic diagnostic techniques, 2D and 3D radiographic appearance, and the clinicopathology associated with lesions found in every day practice. Then we'll move on to some more unusual cases such as the odotogenic keratocyst, , nasopalatine cyst, squamous cell carcinoma and iatrogenic lesions.

Educational objectives:Nasopalatine duct cyst with typical heart-shaped appearance

1. Describe all of the testing modalities that can be used to diagnose endodontic pahtosis.

2. Learn how to document your findings

3. Understand the radiographic appearance of typical odontogenic and non-odontogenic lesions of the jaws.

Sign-Up Now! This course will be presented free of charge to invited guests at our Chevy Chase office. Please contact Rhea, our Patient Care Coordinator, at course@endocc.com. Attendees will receive 1.5 hours of continuing education credit. Refreshments will be served.
