Description:

Dental caries is a chronic infectious disease affecting children and adults. This course will address trends in caries epidemiology, describe new diagnostic technologies and discuss minimally invasive approaches to managing this disease. With earlier detection, the clinician will be able to redirect management from a restorative (surgical) approach to a medical (preventative/therapeutic) approach.

Learning objectives:
Participants will be able to:

  • Recognize trends in epidemiology
  • Identify indicators for an increased risk of dental caries
  • Compare sensitivity, specificity and reliability of caries detection techniques
  • Differentiate the modes of action of various agents used to arrest or reverse the demineralization process
  • Implement a caries management by risk assessment approach into clinical practice
