4 AACD 2016 | TORONTOAACD 2016: A Hot Ticket


This year’s conference themes of Design, Implementation, and Realization will deliver an innovative and progressive program that couldn’t have a more fitting background than the city of Toronto . Home to more than 2 .79 million people (5 .5 million in the Greater Toronto Area), Toronto is the cultural, entertainment, and financial capital of Canada . Join us in this city that has it all for a Scientific Session that has it all – world-class comprehensive cosmetic dentistry education, sessions inspiring professional and personal fulfillment, and opportunities to be among the best and brightest in the field of cosmetic dentistry . This trifecta converges in only one place: AACD 2016 .

DESIGNCosmetic dentists know that smile design is about more than just the teeth. It’s about the parameters of soft tissue, facial dynamics, the airway, lips, emotion, and much more. On Day One of AACD 2016, sessions will focus on Design –what it looks like, feels like, and how it works.

IMPLEMENTATIONThe next step is implementation – the execution of a course of treatment that has been developed using the diagnostic information acquired during the design phase. Day Two of AACD 2016 will focus on areas including soft tissue surgery, hard tissue manipulation, and orthodontics.

REALIZATIONThe final step is where it all comes together. The treatment plan is realized, and the patient’s dreams come true. Day Three of AACD 2016 will be about preparing the teeth for reconstruction, veneers, crowns, implants, and the related processes.

Airline TravelAttendees are encouraged to fly in and out of Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ). There is a smaller airport, Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (YTZ), just minutes from downtown Toronto, which may be another option for some travelers.

The AACD’s official travel provider, Destinations Travel Center (DTC), is dedicated to meeting your needs and your budget. We’ve had a 10 year partnership with DTC because of their extremely high quality, personalized service – the service you deserve.

DTC and the AACD have negotiated several discounts for convention air programs. For more information, visit www.aacd.com/travel or contact DTC at 800.551.1314 or 402.397.1314.

Local TransportationThe AACD does not provide transportation between the airport and the conference hotels. There are plenty of ground transportation options at Toronto Pearson International Airport: taxis are readily available and fares from Pearson to downtown Toronto are approximately CAD $50-$55, fare rates for a limo are CAD $58; or the new Union Pearson Express train will get you from the airport to downtown in 25 minutes. More info at www.upexpress.com. If flying into Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport, travelers can take a complimentary shuttle bus into downtown, which departs every 15 minutes, or commute via ferry ride, taxi, public transportation, or bike.

Passport InformationFor most conference attendees, a valid passport will be required for travel. Apply for or renew your passport well in advance to ensure smooth travels to Toronto; September through December are the best months to submit your renewal or application because they are off-peak travel months. Don’t delay! Get your passport in order now! Visit www.travel.state.gov for more information.

Other International Travel ConsiderationsCurrency: The local currency is the Canadian dollar (CAD), and for denominations under five dollars, Canadians use the Loonie (one-dollar coin) and the Toonie (two-dollar coin). Daily currency exchange rates can be found online: www.xe.com.

Mobile phones: Check with your service provider to learn about their international services and fees.

What to PackStandard attire for attendees is business casual. You may want to bring layers as temperatures in Toronto during the spring go from warm to cool from day to evening. The average daytime temperature in Toronto in April is 43°F/6°C.

If you are planning on attending the Gala this year (your ticket is now included in your conference tuition!), remember to bring along something fancy. The event is black tie, but sharp suits and cocktail dresses are also acceptable.


AACD 2016:A Hot Destination

Toronto Has it All

ShoppingFor the fashion forward, Toronto’s Fashion District is close by and offers plenty of recognizable brands along with niche boutiques that are sure to have one of a kind items. A bit further west is the Queen West neighborhood, voted one of the coolest neighborhoods by Vogue in 2014. Queen West’s juxtaposition of historic buildings and trendy shopping spots is sure to inspire a spree. Besides the numerous surface level options for shopping, there are an additional 30 km/19 miles of underground shopping options along PATH, the city’s downtown underground pedestrian walkway.

DiningIt should be no surprise that Toronto has a culinary scene that rivals its international counterparts. Toronto has achieved that status by not only landing internationally-acclaimed chefs in their white-linen restaurants but also by having high quality options at all price points that can satisfy even the most diehard of foodies. Remember, breakfast and lunch are included in your AACD 2016 tuition, but for your remaining meals, you can have your pick from over 9,000 restaurants. If that many options overwhelm you, you might select from this short list supplied by one of our AACD insiders, a native Torontonian: Frank’s Kitchen, Restos, Canoe, North 44, The Chase, Luna and O&B, Canteen at Tiff Lightbox, Buca, Toca, or of course, there is always street meat!

EntertainmentYou may want to plan on arriving early or staying after the scientific session in order to experience some of the world-class entertainment right at your doorstep in Toronto. By just stepping outside for a stroll you could find yourself taking in some of Toronto’s 200 public art works and historic monuments. If you’re looking for a more concentrated dose of history, try one of Toronto’s ten museums, which jointly hold 147,000 artifacts and one million archaeological specimens in their collections. Between the 80 film festivals, 200 professional performing arts organizations, internationally recognized symphony, ballet and opera companies, and countless galleries and museums, you won’t have any trouble putting together an itinerary. Or, if you’re feeling more spontaneous, you might wander into any of the local clubs that offer everything from Latin dancing to live music including jazz, to stand-up comedy. Toronto’s entertainment district has something for everyone!

No matter who you are or where you are from, you can easily feel at home in Toronto – there truly are no outsiders in this city comprised of citizens from more than 200 distinct ethnic origins. With over half of its population born outside of Canada, you may notice a harmony of 140 languages and dialects being spoken by Toronto’s residents. It’s collection of cultures brings the city to life with an energy and spirit that is infectious.

It is no surprise then that this multicultural mecca boasts truly world class shopping, dining, and entertainment.

history of this city. Born and raised in Toronto, Mike has written nearly two dozen books about Toronto’s past.

For this historical tour, you’ll get to see Toronto from onboard one of the Red Rockets, a 1938 streetcar that served as the backbone of the Toronto transit system until 1954. Over the 57 years the streetcar served transit users, Toronto changed from a nondescript small city to the cosmopolitan and world-class community it is today. You’ll be transported through time as Mike shares the story of Toronto’s evolution all while being transported through this humming metropolis in a piece of history.

The village of St. Jacobs is located just one hour west of Toronto. The Mennonites trekked from Pennsylvania in Conestoga Wagons and settled in and around St. Jacobs in the late 1700s and early 1800s. Today, the old blacksmith shop still remains, as do the horse and buggy and historical buildings. Many of the original buildings remain housing art, crafts, gifts and antique shops.

Once you arrive in the town of Elmira, a local Mennonite guide will board your coach and provide commentary on the history, beliefs, and lifestyles of this Mennonite district and its settlers. The highlight of this tour will certainly be Canada’s largest year-round Farmers’ Market.

After selecting the finest produce from the Farmers’ Market or antiques and world-famous quilts in the shops, you’ll get to explore the last remaining covered bridge in Ontario and enjoy a hearty farmer’s lunch at the Stonecroft Inn. Then, a beautiful team of large draught horses will take you on a picturesque horse-drawn trolley tour.

Making the Most ofAACD 2016 on Your Way to Accreditation

• Accessibility to Accreditation Examiners – Take advantage of what’s right in front of you! AACD Accreditation Examiners are identified with ribbons on their name badges and will be in the AACD Booth in the Exhibit Hall at various times. We highly recommend you approach one and ask about the process or even a case you’re working on. The examiners would love to talk to you. Bring a business card to exchange and get networking!

• Opportunities to Explore and Absorb – If you’re still contemplating whether Accreditation is for you, sit in on Dr. Bradley J. Olson’s Accreditation Workshop. It’s full of insights about the process and can help address any uncertainty you may have. Then, if you like what you saw in the Accreditation Workshop, stick around to hear Dr. Scott Finlay’s Criteria Workshop. Scott had a large hand in the production of the fabulous Criteria Guide. He has a lot of knowledge to share! If you’re hooked, you can keep up momentum by attending any of the Accreditation track lectures and hands-on workshops that cover all of the Accreditation case types.

• Preliminary Feedback to Hone Your Focus – If you’re wondering what type of feedback you would get on your cases and want to pick the brain of an examiner in a more formal setting, sign up for the Advanced Accreditation Workshop. Bring cases to be reliably and respectfully critiqued by Accreditation Examiners. This is one of the most helpful courses you will ever attend.

• Camaraderie to Bolster Your Confidence – Take the written exam while you’re at AACD 2016. When you take the written exam at AACD 2016, you will be surrounded by your colleagues who are also embarking on this noble undertaking. You can’t look to them for help with questions during the test, but you can look to them for encouragement, inspiration, case collaboration, and friendship forged from your shared experience.

If you’re considering AACD Accreditation, maximize your time at AACD 2016 by taking advantage of these opportunities:

Already Accredited? Then Fellowship is for you! The purpose of Fellowship is to provide passionate and dedicated dental professionals with the opportunity to further differentiate themselves at the highest level of achievement available to AACD Members in accordance with AACD’s mission of education and excellence.

MORNING LECTURE • Course L110TOPIC – INTERDISCIPLINARY TREATMENT PLANNINGGlobal Diagnosis – A New Vision of Diagnosis and Treatment Planning

J. William Robbins, DDS9:15 am – 10:15 am CE Units: 1.0L AGD Subject Code: 734

With the increased emphasis on interdisciplinary treatment in recent years, the deficiencies associated with traditional methods of diagnosis and treatment planning have become more evident and problematic. The purpose of this course is to provide a systematic approach to diagnosis and prepare a treatment plan for the complex, interdisciplinary dental patient with a common language that may be utilized by the orthodontist, periodontist and oral and maxillofacial surgeon, as well as the restorative dentist.

Educational Objectives:1 . Describe four Global Diagnoses

2 . Describe the “5 CORE Questions” with their corresponding treatment

3 . Communicate with the interdisciplinary team

MORNING LECTURE • Course L111TOPIC – AIRWAY MANAGEMENTBetter to Look Good than to Feel Good? Improved Decision-Making for Airway Management and Resolution

Jeffrey Rouse, DDS10:15 am – 11:15 am CE Units: 1.0L AGD Subject Code: 160

As dentists begin to recognize the impact of dysfunctional breathing, managing the problem will become an important component of comprehensive restorative dental care. The interdisciplinary airway resolution strategies typically lend themselves to dental reconstructions. Dr. Rouse has developed a protocol for evaluating the relative health of the autonomic nervous system of the patient with fully reversible procedures. The patients reaction to the therapy will help determine the next level of referral to resolve the airway limitation.

Educational Objectives:1 . Understand that breathing disorders are much more than apnea

2 . Develop a strategy to screen patients in a restorative practice

3 . Create an autonomic nervous system trial to direct the practitioner in developing an interdisciplinary health and dental plan

Jason Smithson, BDS2:00 pm – 5:00 pm CE Units: 3.0P AGD Subject Code: 250

Teeth become discolored for a variety of reasons: tetracycline staining, loss of vitality after restoration with silver amalgam, or if treated with full coverage crowns. Today this would be considered unnecessarily destructive. Sometimes these teeth are amenable to bleaching, but sometimes that fails or is not appropriate. In this course, an upper incisor tooth is restored with a direct composite resin veneer utilizing varying opacities of resin to mask the discoloration yet maintain a lifelike level of translucency. Also experience an efficient step-wise polishing protocol which enables the operator to recreate enamel macro and micro-morphology to render the restoration indistinguishable from natural tooth structure.

Educational Objectives:1 . Examine the diagnosis of tooth discoloration – not all are created equal

2 . Select the optimal resin for discolored tooth – microfill vs . nano vs . microhybrid

3 . Demonstrate tooth preparation (layering and finishing) to recreate natural tooth structure

MORNING WORKSHOP • Course W257TOPIC – ANTERIOR COMPOSITESRestoring The Peg Lateral Incisor: The Direct Composite Resin Approach: A Half-Day Master Class Supported by Heraeus KulzerAttendance limited to 50

Jason Smithson, BDS9:15 am – 12:15 pm CE Units: 3.0P AGD Subject Code: 254

The peg lateral incisor is a form of microdontia, which is fairly prevalent, and indeed is found in between 0.3 and 8.4 % of the general population. Classically, this tooth form presents an orthodontic and esthetic defect and patients often request a restoration. Typically, placement is technically demanding in terms of masking shine through; incisal edge position, emergence profile and contact points. Restoration in composite resin is often more conservative and less costly than ceramics. In this engaging presentation, Dr. Smithson will discuss a general overview of microdontia, the fabrication of a simple PVS stent to allow control of palatal form, the role of opaque composite to block out unwanted light transmission, opalescence and the incisal halo, and much more.

The Hands-On Component:

An upper lateral incisor tooth is restored with direct composite resin using a simple elegant approach, which is predictable and confers significant time saving advantages over traditional layering protocols. Composite resin of varying chromaticity and translucence is employed to achieve the appearance of truly lifelike enamel and dentin in conjunction with a simple tinting technique, which recreates the incisal opalescence, in addition to superficial white enamel infractions. Finally the resin veneer is polished to emulate the natural enamel surface characteristics, thus achieving high-end esthetics and durability to rival ceramics.

Educational Objectives:1 . To prepare or not to prepare? When, why and how

2 . Learn how to layer with varying chromas to recreate a gradient from gingival to incisal

3 . Understand how to simply create tight contact points
