Sunrise Side CE Event – Gingival Recession:Assessment and Management and Dental Implant Maintenance
March 19, 2015 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
Join Sunrise Side District Dental Hygienists’ Society for a 1.5 CEU opportunity on March 19, 2015 from 6pm-730pm at the Alpena County Library.
Presenting: Vaughn A. McGraw, D.D.S., M.S., and Michael R. Doctor, D.D.S., M.S. of Northern Periodontics & Implant Dentistry, PC Petoskey, MI.
Gingival recession is an everyday occurrence in our dental practices, but management of recession can be confusing. We will cover etiologies of gingival recession and what factors we can used to determine when recession should be treated or when it is appropriate to cautiously observe. Surgical gingival grafting options will also be reviewed.
As dental implants have become a common method for replacing teeth, it is important for us to inform our patients on the best practices for maintain these implants. We will review in-office and homecare techniques and tips for maintaining healthy peri-implant tissues.
Cost is $15 or FREE to MDHA members
