Dr. Waji Khan
AGD Subject Code: 690
Description
Successful case presentation focuses on 3 elements: listening carefully, communicating clearly, and, specifically, addressing patients’ questions in language they can understand. Presenting treatment from the patient’s perspective adds value and can be a motivating factor that leads to acceptance of the proposed treatment.
Communication always was and still is the basis of everything we do in dentistry. For a long time in dentistry, the patient just had to trust what the dentist or hygienist was telling them, so trust and rapport with the patient was the key to acceptance. But today with social media and the internet, people can do their own research on what dental treatments are, what they feel like, and even what they should be paying for them.
Join us for this informative presentation.

Cone Beam Imaging in Endodontics
Dr. Farzad Danesh
AGD Subject Code: 070
Description
Magnification and radiographic imaging are integral to the performance of modern endodontics. Conventional two-dimensional radiographs continue to be the most popular method of imaging today. However, the diagnostic potential of periapical radiographs is limited. Information may be difficult to interpret, especially when the anatomy and background pattern is complex. Furthermore, interpreting is a subjective matter. The question is, “Does having the ability to see a tooth in three dimensions alter the diagnosis and treatment plan?”
A limited field of view CBCT would allow us to better see resorptive defects, to know that we have not missed a canal, to diagnose teeth that should not be treated, to better determine bone loss, and to help identify landmarks during apical surgery. Without CBCT “you just don’t know what you don’t know!”
Learning Objectives: Upon completion of this webinar, the participants should be able to:
-
Understand the importance of CBCT in endodontics
-
Request for CBCT imaging for endodontic diagnosis and treatment
-
Know the clinical circumstances in which the use of CBCT benefits the patient.
