Welcome to the first all-digital edition of the University of

Florida College of Dentistry’s Continuing Dental Education

Course Guide. We have designed the new course guide to

be completely accessible online using all electronic devices,

including smart phones, with a goal of providing ease of use

so your goal of lifelong professional learning can be arranged,

literally, at your fingertips.

Within the course guide, you will find information and

registration options for 55+ courses offering during more than

100+ sessions to make it as convenient as possible for you and your oral health

care team to stay current with licensure requirements and with the leading edge

of changes in our profession. We are always working to improve our course

offerings to ensure the needs of our customers are met. Last year more than

2,000 people attended CE courses with UFCD.

This year we added several new programs including courses on digital scanning

(Optical Impressioning in the Digital Era, page 30), a 3-part Digital Workflow

Concentration (Synergy, page 16; Full-arch Fixed, page 17; and Full-arch CBCT,

page 17), a Dental Lasers Certification (page 31), and Botulinum Toxin (Botulinum

Toxin: The HOW & Why, page 13), to name just a few.

In the same way that we maintain a focus on the future for our CE programs, we

maintain a future-focus for the overall direction of the college as well. Recently

we completed a five-year strategic plan to guide our focus through 2024. The

plan includes five key goals: education, patient care, research, infrastructure, and

environment. We invite you to review the plan online (https://cod-strategic-plan.

sites.medinfo.ufl.edu/) and share any feedback you may have with us.

Thank you so much for allowing us to play a role in your personal and professional

COURSE GOALSThe goals of this class are to assist the dental hygienist to become knowledgeable in:• the use and administration of local anesthetics in all aspects of

dentistry including periodontal patients• the pharmacology, neurophysiology, neurochemistry and anatomy

related to the administration of local anesthetics in a practical common sense approach

• in the physical and psychological evaluation of the patient prior to receiving local anesthetic or dental treatment

• the side effects, complications and the management of those problems associated with local anesthetics to maintain safety as a priority

COURSE OBJECTIVESAt the conclusion of the course, the participant will be trained in:• Scope of pain and anxiety

control• Neurophysiology• Pharmacology of local

anesthetics and vasoconstrictors

• Armamentarium• Physical and psychological

evaluation...and more

GENERAL DENTISTRY GENERAL DENTISTRY

COURSE DESCRIPTION As medical science advances, it is expected that dentists will encounter an increase in the number of medically complex patients seeking routine dental care. Dentists are frequently challenged by the medically compromised patients who present for treatment. Not only is it difficult to keep up with the medical knowledge necessary to understand the status of your patients, it is sometimes difficult to decide which medical issues are important to your dental care, and which issues should alert you to the possibility of a medical emergency occurring.

Moreover, the active treatment of a medical emergency in the office setting can be intimidating and confusing not only to dentists, but to any health care practitioner. Preparation, via reading and lectures is helpful but is no substitute for real experience in a lifelike situation.

For this reason, we have developed an emergency preparedness course with high fidelity simulations so that dentists and their staffs can practice simulated emergency care in a real clinical environment. Utilizing the University of Florida Medical Education Simulation Center, dentists and their staff members will participate in a number of emergency scenarios, followed by discussion of the various principles involved in identifying and responding to medical emergencies that may be encountered in dental offices. We will also discuss emergency preparedness, and suggest practical ways you and your office staff can remain in a constant state of readiness. Since team function is an important aspect of emergency care, this presentation is designed to be taken by the entire dental team.

COURSE OBJECTIVESIn this presentation you will:• Participate along with your staff and other attendees in hands-

on simulations of a variety of medical emergencies for which a dental office should be prepared including syncope, angina attack, MI, cardiac arrhythmia, stroke, hypertensive episode, airway obstruction, seizure, local anesthetic overdose, epinephrine reaction, hypoglycemia, asthma attack, hyperventilation, and allergic reaction/anaphylaxis

• Render emergency care in real time in a stress-free simulated surgical environment; respond to variations in patient response

• Assign roles and direct your team in rescuing your patient • Define medical risk assessment and learn its relevance to the

dental patient • Understand the stress reaction and how it affects dental patients • And More! See website for details — www.ce.dental.ufl.edu/courses

COURSE DESCRIPTION A crisis situation can — and likely will — occur at some time in your practice. Many potential medical emergencies can be prevented. Gain a comprehensive command of the essential knowledge and skills needed to handle a life threatening medical crisis.

There are more medically compromised patients coming to our offices than ever before. Acquire “up to the minute” actions for dealing with a medical emergency while challenging preconceived or outdated ideas. Daniel Pompa, DDS — Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon, ADA Consultant and Seminar Series Speaker — discusses the prevention, preparation, recognition and management of medical emergencies. Delivered in an interactive, high energy, multimedia presentation frequently described by attendees as “highly informative,” “engaging,” and “exceptional.” A step-by-step medical approach using basic physical diagnostic methods is reviewed, giving the attendee a clear understanding of these medical findings. We will explore the “Conversational History” and how it will uncover medical issues not revealed by the standard health history form. Additionally, the participant will learn simple, non-invasive critical tests that can reduce overall risks. We clearly delineate indications for emergency drug use and proper dosages, as well as demonstrate how to assemble and maintain an ideal emergency drug kit. The newest techniques for drug administration will be shown for participants to hone their skills utilizing simulation models and real drugs.

All attendees will be given multiple products that can easily be used for a simple, in office, Medical Assessment, prior to treatment. These products are all non-invasive and the costs is included in the registration fee. These include: a Pulse Oximeter, Glucometer, Nebulizer, Albuterol packet, 3cc syringe, and an Atomizer. We will demonstrate how to use the products throughout the course.

COURSE DESCRIPTIONThe maturation of the field of implant dentistry with regards to digital technology and materials has improved treatment efficiency as well as both esthetic and functional predictability. The utilization of a comprehensive and synergistic digital workflow, based on sound evidence-based principles and team communication, is one way to satisfy these demands. In a single-tooth replacement situation, the synergy workflow incorporates digital acquisition of patient data, a virtual wax-up, pre-surgical planning of the implant position followed by template and provisional fabrication through an additive or milling process, prior to initiating the surgical procedure.

This two-day course will focus on the technology utilized in the synergy workflow through lectures and handson sessions. Participants will be given presentations that demonstrate the step-wise process followed by hands-on sessions executing the principles taught. Participants will experience the use of an intra-oral scanner, perform a digital wax-up, import a DICOM file and merge it with the wax-up, plan implant placement, design and print a surgical guide and mill a provisional. On a patient simulated model, the participant will place an implant with fully-guided surgery and deliver the implant supported provisional. All course participants will keep the hands-on model as a valuable patient education tool to be used in their practice.

COURSE OBJECTIVES• Define and reference evidence-based digital approaches to

accelerated and esthetic implant procedures• Understand the indications and use of the synergy workflow in the

replacement of single missing teeth.• Become familiar with intra-oral scanning and virtual wax-ups.• Become familiar with importing DICOM files and implementing

synergy with the virtual wax-up allowing restoration-driven positioning implants, template design and fabrication.

Digital Workflow ConcentrationFull-Arch CBCT Guided Surgery andImmediate Restoration: Smile in a BoxCOURSE DESCRIPTIONThe rehabilitation of the terminal dentition or completely edentulous arch with dental implants and a fixed solution has become a focal point in today’s implant practice. With patient awareness increasing from radio, TV and social media; prompting them to seek treatment, clinicians find themselves faced with the need to offer these services. In addition, evidence-based treatment protocols promote the social, functional and esthetic benefits of dental implant supported restorations, and with the increased integration of digital technology, this process has become streamlined for the treatment team. With the complexity that is often faced in these clinical situations (bone reduction, implant positioning, template design and fabrication, abutment selection, provisional fabrication and indexing), technology that is currently available, run by an extended member of the treatment team allows for these steps to be pre-planned and fabricated to ease the burden on the surgeon and restorative dentist at the time of surgery.

This two-day course will focus on the technology utilized to plan and order (“smile in a box”) CBCT guided templates and provisional restorations for treatment of the full-arch patient. Participants will be given presentations that demonstrate the stepwise patient evaluation and planning process followed by hands-on sessions executing the principles taught. Participants will also experience the use of the co-DiagnostiX software to import a DICOM file and merge it with a dual scan prosthesis. In addition, techniques to segment, plan implant placement and abutment selection will be covered. On a patient simulated model, the participant will use CBCT-generated stackable templates in the placement of four dental implants followed by abutment placement and indexing of a pre-fabricated interim restoration. All course participants will keep the hands-on model as a valuable patient education tool to be used in their practice.

COURSE OBJECTIVES • To recognize factors of significance in the assessment of patients for

full-arch CBCT guided placement and loading of implants.• Become familiar with the varying template designs for the placement

of implants in the full-arch situation.• Understand techniques involved with immediate loading of implants

with a full-arch fixed prosthesis• Become familiar with the options for definitive restorative materials

as well as protocols in the maintenance of patients with full-arch restorations.

COURSE DESCRIPTION This lecture will focus on modern treatment options for management of deficient alveolar ridges, aimed to maximize tissue quality at the implant interface with the oral cavity and creation of a stronger biologic seal, more resistant to peri-implantitis. Alternative implant options, graft materials, and instrumentation techniques will be discussed, including Osseodensification. Unlike traditional bone drilling technologies, Osseodensification does not excavate bone tissue. Rather, it preserves bone bulk so bone tissue is simultaneously compacted and auto-grafted in an outwardly expanding direction to form an osteotomy with compacted dense layer of bone tissue along its walls. Scientific literature has suggested that dense compacted bone tissue produces stronger purchase for dental implants, higher initial implant stability, higher insertion torque values, and may facilitate faster healing.

Furthermore, Osseodensification can also be used for alveolar ridge expansion and crestal sinus floor elevation. This CE course combines didactic lecture and hands-on workshop to cover a broad range of applications of Osseodensification in Implant Dentistry.

COURSE OBJECTIVES At the end of this course clinicians should be able to:

• Understand the importance of implant design and selection for deficient ridges

• Learn the rationale and science behind Osseodensification• Identify indications and contraindications for treatment• Practice Osseodensification, ridge expansion, and crestal sinus

floor elevation

FLORIDA LICENSE RENEWAL DEADLINE IS FEB. 28, 2020

COURSE DESCRIPTIONWhile the Florida Board requires 30 hours of CEU for dentists, 24 hours of CEU for hygienists and 18 hours of CEU for dental labs, every biennium in order to renew your Florida license, there are certain specific courses that the state requires for relicensure. This one-day seminar is designed to satisfy those requirements.

Prevention of Medical Errors (2 CEU)* AGD# 159This unit shall include a study of root cause analysis, error reduction and prevention, and patient safety.

Domestic Violence (2 CEU)**Including information on the numbers of patients likely to be victims and/or predators in a professional’s practice, screening procedures for determining if a patient may have a history of being a victim or predator of domestic violence, and instruction on how to provide patients with information on resources in the local community to help victims of domestic violence. AGD# 156

OSHA/Bloodborne Pathogens (1.5 CEU)Annual infection control, bloodborne pathogen, and TB education is required by JCAHO, ACHA, and OSHA. It is also important for you to review your role in infection control at this time.

Many of the topics included are mandated by either licensing or accrediting agencies. The other topics are important for healthcare infection control and will clarify your role in Infection Control. AGD# 148

Risk Management & Record Keeping (1.5 CEU)In this age of expanding theories of tort liability, dentists may be responsible for more than their own acts. Dentists have responsibility for the actions of their office staff and those whom they directly employ. Most dentists don’t realize that they may also be held responsible for any acts of their partners, office staff or others who may perform procedures under their control or supervision.

This course will help you understand the issues involved and what procedures to implement to judiciously practice dentistry. AGD# 550

COURSE DESCRIPTIONWhile the demand for Associates has grown tremendously in the last few years, more than 70% of Associateships in dental practices still fail. Knowing when, where, and how to take on, or become, an Associate can be overwhelming. Creating a win-win strategy begins with the end in mind and creating goals for the Associateship. Failure to plan in advance can cost the senior dentist and/or new dentist a significant loss of time, resources, and ‘stomach lining’. This full day hands-on workshop will demystify the process, focus on the planning, and developing aspects for successful Associateships, from inception to potential buy-out. Sample Associate agreements will be reviewed and utilized to support the information presented in this workshop-style course, along with planning sheets and handouts. This course is designed for dentists wanting to offer an Associateship in their practice as well as dentists wanting to become an Associate.

COURSE OBJECTIVESAt the completion of the course participants will be able to:

• Develop the time frames, purpose & goals for Associateships• Establish the planning process and financial aspects of

COURSE DESCRIPTIONDSO’s (Dental Service Organizations) are paying top dollar for practices that meet specific criteria. With the markets for DSO-affiliated practices continuously expanding into the near future, demand is growing for dental practices that possess the desired characteristics for people, processes and profits. Traditional dental practice buyers can discount the value of a dental practice for sale down to 40% less than market value, while DSO’s can (and will) pay up to 100% of market value for certain dental practices. Therefore, a selling dentist can position themselves for maximum sale price of their practice by ensuring they possess the needed components of a DSO-desired practice. This course will provide the information and strategies for dentists to prepare their practice for sale to a DSO.

COURSE OBJECTIVESAt the completion of the course participants will be able to:

• Understand the components of a dental practice that are most valued by DSO’s

• Evaluate practice financial information to assess practice profitability

• Assemble the professional team for practice sale• Develop a timeframe from preparation to affiliation• Implement strategies for continued growth of the practice• Review the steps for implementing and managing change • Align the practice goals with the DSO’s goals for affiliation• Understand the culture and personality of a DSO• Illuminate the process of transitioning careers from dentist owner

to affiliated dentist• Highlight the strategies for success post-affiliation

Preparing to Sell to a DSO Starting a Practice After Leaving a DSO

COURSE DESCRIPTION Dentists’ first positions are often as an Associate in a DSO (Dental Support Organization) practice where they increase their clinical skills and absorb as much information as possible. Most Associates spend on average 1.7 years working for a DSO before moving on to the next career opportunity. Often the desire to start a new practice is strong, but the steps to be taken are not clear. This course will remove the mystery and outline the steps needed to transition from a DSO Associate to an entrepreneurial CEO of a dental start up.

COURSE OBJECTIVESThe goal of this course is to prepare dentists to start up their own dental practice after leaving a DSO.

At the completion of this course, dentists will be able to:

• Develop the Vision for the new practice start-up • Understand the timeframe from idea inception to opening day• Assemble the members of the professional team for the start-up• Evaluate the financial requirements (both personally and

professionally) for a start-up• Estimate the cost of a start-up practice• Formulate the marketing strategies for pre-and-post opening of

the practice• Synthesize the clinical and managerial knowledge and skills

acquired into an entrepreneurial CEO mindset• Review the process for formation of the legal entity• Manage the Restrictive Covenant to assess for ideal location and

patient demographics • Identify the time-management skills best suited for a business

Tax Minimization Strategies: What Every Dentist Needs to Know to Pay Less in 2019 and Beyond

Master Your Margins: Key Performance Indicators for Profit Maximization

COURSE DESCRIPTION New tax reform laws have a significant impact on individuals as well as dental practices’ tax planning. This course will compare provide valuable insight into tax changes, while focusing on success strategies for tax planning going forward. After all, it’s not about how much one makes, but how much one keeps that matters. Illustrated scenarios will be used to demonstrate how the new tax plan will affect taxes in 2019 and future years.

COURSE DESCRIPTION Using the practice financial tools is a must for sustainable, financial growth in today’s dental practices. Every dental practice and dentist has information at hand with either 1) the press of a button in their dental software, or 2) in financial statements from their CPA, which can be used to support evidence-based decision-making. To save every possible dollar, it is important for dentists to be aware of how to use the information at their disposal to analyze the health of their dental practice. Equally important, is the ability to use this available information as the basis for dentists’ annual Strategic Planning sessions. This full day workshop will include lecture, discussion, evaluation of financial documents, and break-out sessions for case reviews to proactively identify opportunities for improved profit margins.

Maximizing Important Information Seen in Panoramic Radiographs


COURSE DESCRIPTION This course offers a 2 day clerkship opportunity to observe and learn the basic principles of CBCT imaging in dentistry and interpretation, including live lectures by Board Certified Oral & Maxilofacial Radiologist, Prosthodontist, and Endodontist. The clerkship will provide a general overview of the interpretation process through hands-on experience with several maxillofacial CBCT cases. Participants will be trained on the use of software and become competent in the reformation of images in multiple planes and cross-correlation of anatomy and variants.

Participants will be trained in interpretation using several cases with a variety of maxillofacial and related pathology, including TMD. This is a radiology interpretation experience, no specific training in implant placement will be provided. The clerkship includes lectures on the physics and biology of radiation, basics of interpretation of maxillofacial pathology, CT anatomy, variants, artifacts, protocols, indications, contraindications, doses, and position papers from different specialty groups. Participants may bring up to two anonymized cases each for discussion, following informed consent from the patient. This will be the participants’ responsibility.

Following self-interpretation, over-reads will be done by radiologists as a team-effort.

COURSE OBJECTIVESAt conclusion, the attendees will:• Be familiar with basic radiographic anatomy and anatomic variants• Understand rationale for using CBCT and specific protocols for

specific diagnostic tasks• Be able to provide basic interpretation of CBCT data• Be able to use two different types of client viewing CBCT software• Understand the advantages and disadvantages of CBCT• Understand the capabilities of different imaging units and

limitations• Understand radiation safety as it pertains to the use of CBCT,
