“Managing Dentinal Hypersensitivity”
“Things They Didn’t Tell You in Dental School: Things You Need to Know
to Provide the Best Care for Your Patients”
“Does Hygiene Have Your Back? How to Increase Calibration between
Doctor and Hygienist for Stellar Co-Diagnosis and Enrollment”
This lecture will explore the amazing world of dentistry that most dentists are
unfamiliar with: A world where you can have a major impact on patients’
overall health and well-being. You will discover simple mistakes that most
dentists make daily that can cause cranio-mandibular disorders in your patients,
leading to a lifetime of pain. You will leave this lecture realizing that, as a general
dentist, you are in charge of the treatment and you are the quarterback of the
dental team. You will leave this lecture being more excited about the profession
you have chosen since the day you graduated from dental school.
High producing/high standard of care practices don’t leave anything up to
“guesswork.” Successful practices have mastered dentist/hygienist calibration
by creating and adhering to standard of care documents that map out clinical
expectations and parameters.
8am – 11:30am/12:30pm – 3pm
“New Aspects of Dentistry”
This fast-moving course includes the areas of dentistry with the most activity
and change in any given year. It is easily understood and has numerous
summaries that help attendees to interpret the ongoing advancements in the
profession. The course encourages audience participation and questions and
answers and is presented in an enjoyable and humorous manner. The hottest
aspects in dentistry will be included in the program depending on the interests
of the attendees, the popularity of topics at the time of your program, and the
time available. A few of the possible topics include lasers, CAD/CAM, esthetic
dentistry, implant dentistry, endodontics, periodontics, preventive dentistry,
oral surgery, operative dentistry, and prosthodontics.
This class is suitable for Dentists.
Dentinal hypersensitivity is an episodic condition that is increasing in
prevalence. Surprisingly, a majority of patients do not actively seek treatment
to desensitize their teeth, instead adopting coping behaviors, such as avoidance
of cold foods and drinking through straws. The objective of this course is to
provide the dental health professional with a continuous care strategy for
identifying and meeting the treatment needs of patients suffering from
hypersensitive dentin.
“Radiographic Techniques from Analog to Digital”
This course will provide practical information on intraoral radiography
techniques. The basic principles will be discussed, including hands-on
application of these principles to digital radiography.
This class is suitable for Staff.

educational forum for advancing our
profession. For the past 20 years, LVI
has led the way in continuing education
becoming the world's premier post

igniting the profession’s interest in the physiologically-based neuromuscular dentistry. From aesthetic dentistry to scientifically-based occlusal
approaches, Bill has led the way developing many aesthetic and occlusal
techniques, products and procedures that enhance comprehensive
restorative procedures.
Doctors with highly trained, highly calibrated, highly empowered and highly
respected hygienists have surpassed the financial storm with flying colors, while
less-calibrated practices struggle to stay afloat.
Utilizing her unique experience as a seasoned educator, clinician and practice
coach, Stacy McCauley’s presentations offer a high-energy, workshop environment where attendees learn the skills necessary to implement calibration
strategies in their practices. Through case studies and small group interaction,
attendees will learn how to take their Hygiene department from “Woeful” to
“Wow!”
“The Perfect Handoff: Communication Strategies for Stellar Co-Diagnosis
and Enrollment”
Would you like more case acceptance and increased patient satisfaction, less
stress and a greater collaborative team spirit? Thriving practices have mastered
the art of the handoff. Achieving a high level of co-diagnosis starts with seamless
communication between everyone in the office.
We will cover the principles of high impact communication, including: how
patients listen and learn, factors that influence patient decision making, verbal
and non-verbal communication techniques, and proxemics. Through real-time
interactivity, attendees will start to master the skills of high impact communication to take their practice’s perio co-diagnosis skill and effectiveness through
the roof. For continued learning back in the practice, attendees are welcome
to videotape their simulated handoff practice sessions.
This class is suitable for Staff.
