KEYNOTE SPEAKER

To the Members of the Florida Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons: Due to unfortunate circumstances affecting Dr. Anthony Sclar and his family, he will not be able to attend and be the featured speaker at the Florida Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons Annual Meeting, held this year in collaboration with Osteo Science Foundation, at the Breakers in West Palm Beach. Fortunately, Daniel B. Spagnoli, DDS, PhD, has agreed to step in as the Keynote Speaker at this meeting. Dr. Spagnoli is well known to this association, as well as surgeons throughout the country and internationally. Dr. Spagnoli has lectured extensively on regenerative/bone and soft tissue grafting techniques and reconstruction and rehabilitation of extremely complex implant patients. He has developed cutting edge technology that integrates the latest computer virtual planning with the most advanced reconstructive techniques. He has lectured extensively throughout the country and internationally and published extensively in this area, introducing many completely new and innovative techniques enhancing patient outcomes. On behalf of Dr. Gesek and the FSOMS, as well as the Board and staff of Osteo Science Foundation, we are proud to have Dr. Spagnoli as our featured speaker this year, and hope that you will join us as we welcome him at this meeting. Sincerely, Myron R. Tucker, DDS Science and Education Liaison, Osteo Science Foundation

 

Daniel B. Spagnoli, DDS, PhD

PRESENTATION OVERVIEW Complete digital work flow on full arch restoration with fixed and with fixed-removable hybrid prosthesis Learning Objectives: 1. To understand the complexities of a complete digital workflow for complex patients requiring arch reconstruction/grafting and fixed implant placement 2. Visualize the process that integrates, CBCT, intraoral scanning and virtual surgical planning for these patients 3. Understand the advantages and disadvantages of “in office” printed and milled prosthesis. Treatment of the Edentulous and Terminal Dentition Maxilla with Bone Grafts and Implants. Objectives: 1. Grafting methods correlated with prosthetic options that achieve masticatory efficiency, and esthetic restoration will be presented. 2. The presentation will review clinical evaluation, Radiological evaluation and comprehensive treatment planning. 3. Implant configurations that favor graft or native bone maintenance will be discussed in conjunction with prosthetic principles. The concept of guided implant and guide indexed prosthesis placement to gain accuracy and efficiency will be introduced. Vertical and Transverse Alveolar Ridge Construction: Patient Specific Treatment Objectives: 1. To present a wide variety of hard and soft tissue grafting options using autogenous, allogeneic and or xenogenic material. 2. Focus on personalized treatment that takes into consideration several factors including, dentition, alveolar ridge deficiencies, prosthetic final outcome all combined with complex medical histories. 3. Present a new concept for “layered” grafting techniques.

The PeerPoint Medical Education Institute, LLC is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

The PeerPoint Medical Education Institute, LLC designates this live activity for a maximum of 10 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

ADA has announced that dental anesthesiology has become “the 10th dental specialty recognized by the National Commission on Recognition of Dental Specialties and Certifying Boards.” On March 11, the National Commission “adopted a resolution based on an application from the American Society of Dentist Anesthesiologists to recognize dental anesthesiology as a dental specialty.”

Dr. James Tom, president of the American Society of Dentist Anesthesiologists, said, “This historic vote by the National Commission certainly reflects the ADA’s ongoing efforts towards improved patient care and safety in the areas of dental sedation, dental anesthesiology and access for those with special health care needs.”

In addition to dental anesthesiology, other recognized dental specialties include dental public health, endodontics, oral and maxillofacial pathology, oral and maxillofacial radiology, oral and maxillofacial surgery, orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics, pediatric dentistry, periodontics, and prosthodontics.

After over 35 FSOMS members responded to our request for volunteers to perform office anesthesia inspections, the Florida Department of Health changed the rules. They now plan to hire full time inspectors to perform the evaluations and cease contracting with permitted dentists.

Following is a copy of an email sent current inspectors from FDH Executive Director Jennifer Wenhold explaining the changes.

Dear Dental Inspectors:

We appreciate the feedback received at the sedation workshop regarding the future of the dental inspection program and understand the importance of having dentists perform the inspections. Unlike the Board office, the Bureau of Enforcement’s infrastructure is designed to properly and efficiently manage inspection programs. The Department’s infrastructure is designed this way to alleviate liability and conflicts with the Boards. Based on this, as well as the other concerns I have already shared with you, we are in the process of transitioning the dental sedation program to this office. The program will essentially remain the same with the exception of creating full time positions (to be held by permitted dentists) as opposed to contracting with permitted dentists.

I am working closely with my colleagues to transition this smoothly. What this means for you is business will continue as normal. Nothing is changing with regards to how inspections are being performed and the Board remains in control of the rules which outline how inspections are and will be conducted. We will be running congruently until the program is successfully transitioned within the Department and the full time positions are established and working. At this time we do not have a date set for this to occur but it will likely be at the start of the next fiscal year, after July 1.

Thank you for your feedback and contributions to making Florida the safest state for dental anesthesia.

Regards,

Jennifer L. Wenhold, MSW, Executive Director-
