“All of our dreams can come true if we just have the courage to pursue them.” Walt Disney summed up the reason for you and your team to come to the WDA InSession 2014. This year’s program has many new events for you to explore YOUR dreams: lectures, discussions, unique participation courses and WDA House of Delegates. We are offering new cadaver-based courses for review of anatomy, as well as grafting tech-niques and periodontal surgery. These programs are based on popular classes at American Dental Association annual meetings and will be held in the anatomy labs at Wisconsin Medical College. No, this is not a repeat of your anatomy class. Sign up for this unique experience at a WDA InSession bargain price! We will also have many top lecturers presenting varied topics for you and your team. Don’t be bashful; try a new topic! And, at Interactive Learning Sessions or ILSs, you can explore hot topics in an informal setting using an interactive, study club discussion format. Need your CPR/AED recertified? We can help you! Need to explore the latest in dental products? We can help you! Want to have lunch with your classmates? We can help you! Ever wonder about Wisconsin Dental Association governance? The House of Delegates is now being held in conjunction with InSession. Watch the proceedings and learn what makes your asso-ciation tick. Please check with your local component leaders to learn how you can get involved. And, downtown Milwaukee offers fun activities for everyone, including families. Learn more at www.visitmilwaukee.org/. “Progress is the activity of today and the assurance of tomorrow,” said poet Ralph Waldo Emerson. I look forward to seeing you at WDA’s 2014 InSession — Wisconsin’s Largest Dental Study Club!

General Information

Online RegistrationRegistering online is easy, efficient and provides immediate information about course availability. In-teractive Learning Sessions and hands-on programs are conducted in small groups and can fill fast.

Registering online also provides you with an email confirmation when your registration has been pro-cessed and space has been reserved for you in your chosen courses. Visit WDA.org at http://bit.ly/VP7Xaz to register online beginning May 1!

Name Badges and Course TicketsPlease pick up your name badge and course tickets at one of the numerous WDA InSession registration counters at the Wisconsin Center in the exhibit hall on the third floor. Bring your registration-confirma-tion page with you to expedite the process.

Registration Form and FeesAll attendees must complete a registration form (on-line, fax or mail) to receive a name badge which is required to enter the exhibit hall and classrooms. Flat rate, full-time and part-time packages for lecture and ILS courses replace individual course fees in 2014. The more courses you attend, the more you save!

Hands-on courses have a participant fee to cover supplies and materials. The cost is noted by the course listing.

Breakfast AND lunch are included in ALL packages.

Attendees fall into six categories:• Member dentist - Dentists who are members of the

WDA and/or ADA.

• House of Delegates delegation member - Individu-als serving as a delegate, alternate delegate or a member of the WDA Board of Trustees in 2014.

• Nonmember dentist - Nonmember dentists are those individuals who are not WDA and/or ADA members.

• Dental team member - Dental team members may attend InSession without their dentist – whether or not the dentist is a member. Special pricing on continuing education programs is available for WDA dental hygienist and associate members.

Associate membership is open to dental assis-tants, business/office personnel and dental labo-ratory technicians. Dentists and dental hygienists are not eligible for associate membership.

To become a member or renew your membership for 2014, select the corresponding registration category online and then indicate that you are joining/renewing your associate membership. When using the paper registration form, dental hygienists, dental assistants, business/office per-sonnel and lab technicians should indicate “YES” to the corresponding question and pay the relat-ed dues amount.

Dues are based on the calendar year and nonre-fundable.

• Nonmember dental team/guest - Dental team members may attend InSession without their den-tist. Dental team members who are not a WDA dental hygienist or associate member pay the nonmember dental team rates, regardless if their dentist employer is a WDA member.

Guests (e.g., spouse, child, friend that does not work in a dental office) are non-dental attendees. Guests must be sponsored by a dentist registered for the WDA InSession. Sponsors must verify their guest is not a dentist or a vendor. If it is deter-mined the guest is a dentist, the sponsor agrees to reimburse the WDA for the appropriate regis-tration fee. Guests may visit the exhibit hall and participate in all InSession activities based on the conference package selected.

Spouses of dentists who are also dentists must register as a DENTIST.

Spouses of dentists who are not dentists them-selves, but work in a dental office may register as SPOUSE or, when appropriate, as DENTAL HY-GIENIST, DENTAL ASSISTANT or BUSINESS/FRONT OFFICE PERSONNEL.

Spouses are subject to the registration fee as de-scribed above. A spouse who is not a dentist, but is a member of the ADA Alliance, may register as a WDA associate member (ASM) to receive the lower registration fee.

Students - Students are enrolled in Marquette Uni-versity School of Dentistry, the Wisconsin Tech-nical College System or an advanced training program at a dental school or hospital. They are admitted free to all InSession programs except hands-on courses. Students wishing to attend a hands-on course are responsible for the partici-pant fee.

PLEASE specify attendee category and package plan when registering.

Note: All vendors must register through their com-pany using the Exhibitor Service Center. Only vendors who are exhibiting may participate in the WDA InSession.

Each year in the US, millions of teeth are extracted due to conditions such as caries, trauma and advanced periodon-tal disease. Extraction site grafting and ridge preservation procedures offer significant advantages to the patient and the dental practice, but many dentists still aren’t taking ad-vantage of the benefits these procedures offer their patients.

Tooth extraction without concomitant socket grafting results in osseous deformities of the alveolar ridge, such as re-duced height and width. This makes subsequent manage-ment of esthetics, prosthetics and implant placement very challenging. Socket grafting using bone grafts has been shown to significantly reduce bone loss, maintain ridge dimensions and enhance the clinician’s ability to provide esthetically and functionally satisfying restorations.

This course will provide an understanding of site develop-ment principles and bone grafting protocols leading to an optimal foundation for esthetics, prosthetics and implant suc-cess. Attendees will gain the skill sets necessary to achieve predictable hard tissue augmentation and work with graft-ing products and membranes in a hands-on setting.

Learning objectives:• Know the principles of successful hard tissue augmentation• Learn the steps of extraction socket grafting and ridge preservation• Learn the instrumentation for successful surgical bone augmentation• Select appropriate bone graft materials • Hands-on extraction socket grafting utilizing instructed technique o Site development o Extraction o Bone graft placement o Membrane placement o Suture technique

Program #204a or #204p“Talking” Water FluoridationDr. Jeffrey Chaffin; Matt Crespin, MPH, RDH; Robbyn Kuester, RDH, BSDH


Community water fluoridation (CWF) is an evidence-based prevention method for dental caries. The Centers for Dis-ease Control and Prevention recognizes CWF as one the 10 greatest public health achievements of the 20th century. This prevention program has improved the oral health of Wisconsin residents since 1946. Today, almost 90 percent of state residents on community water systems have access to optimally fluoridated water. However, despite overwhelming scientific evidence sup-porting CWF benefits and safety, opposition persists in Wisconsin and across the country. The opposition is well organized and has developed strategies and tactics that are effective at dispensing false information. The result has been an increase in the number of Wisconsin residents without access to CWF’s benefits. The oral health work-force needs to be prepared to overcome the opposition and misinformation that is rapidly circulated, so as to better help defend CWF’s public health benefits in their communities.

Learning objectives:• Educate attendees on the evidence and science of CWF• Recognize examples of the type of myths spread by anti-fluoridationists• Learn how to respond to CWF opposition

This course is offered in partnership with Marquette University School of Dentistry.

Radiography for Dental Auxiliaries is a two-part CE course consisting of an on-line didactic portion and a hands-on section. Those wishing to take the hands-on portion dur-ing WDA InSession MUST successfully complete the online didactic portion in advance of the meeting.

The on-line portion will be available Oct. 13, 2014 and covers:• Radiographic techniques• Bisecting angle and paralleling techniques• Prevention and correction of radiographic errors• Processing errors• Radiation safety issues

At the end of each section, an on-line assessment evalu-ates the participant’s knowledge.

The hands-on section will be competed at MUSOD during InSession. Working with a manikin, participants will prac-tice making a full-mouth radiograph series using digital sensors and phosphor plates. (MUSOD is now completely digital, so auxiliaries who use film will work with phosphor plates that look and feel like film. Phosphor plates require digital “processing” prior to visualization of the final image. Errors which occur in traditional wet processing will be cov-ered in the on-line didactic portion.)
