Description:
We'll examine key survival rates and success metrics for both options, delving into the fundamental distinctions between teeth and implants. The presentation identifies crucial factors that influence tooth preservation and evaluates the documented evidence regarding implant performance over time compared to natural dentition. Drawing from current research, we'll analyze which restoration approaches and treatment strategies demonstrate optimal long-term outcomes. This evidence-based discussion aims to provide clarity on the durability and effectiveness of both treatment pathways, helping inform clinical decision-making for lasting dental solutions.
Learning Objectives:
- Explain the similarities and differences between a tooth and an implant in terms of long-term survival
- Recognize the factors for clinically acceptable results and success
- Discuss treatment planning alternatives and sustainability of treatment

Description: Systemic health is related to oral health and vice versa. Many systemic diseases are manifested in the oral cavity and many oral conditions and therapies have a profound impact upon systemic diseases. In addition, some of the therapies used to these conditions have significant effects on the oral cavity. For those reasons, it is important for dentists ( and dental health care professionals) to know about their patients' medical conditions before treating them and to understand which diseases manifest themselves in the oral cavity. This course will present a thorough overview of the principles of the management of medical conditions in dental patients, Furthermore, the participant will be updated upon current understanding and treatment of oral conditions such as oral cancer, xerostomia, lichen planus and candidiasis among others.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe the changing epidemiology of medical problems in dental patients
- Review the medical manifestations and treatment options for medical problems in dental patients
- Identify the oral manifestations and potential complications of medical problems in dental patients

Description: Academic dishonesty in dental students is concerning. Students may attempt cheating in the simulation laboratory endodontic practical projects/exams through various methods. These methods include sample substitution, pre-preparation of samples, image manipulation, and presenting others' work as their own. Previous attempts to prevent cheating, such as marking teeth with nail polish or Sharpies, have proven ineffective, as they lack consistency and traceability. Implementing other effective countermeasures could require significant time, money, and effort. This presentation will introduce a novel AI model to ensure that images taken at various stages of endodontic projects/exams, from the preoperative to the final obturation radiograph, are consistent and traceable to the same sample tooth. This model leverages advanced image analysis techniques to authenticate each step of the dental procedure, thereby enhancing the integrity of dental education.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify different methods to maintain academic integrity in preclinical endodontics.
- Describe the benefits and challenges of incorporating AI in endodontic education.
- Outline strategies for effectively integrating AI into endodontic education, focusing on how it can improve the assessment of students’ skills and deter academic dishonesty.

Description: Endodontic microsurgery (EMS) procedures demand high precision and accuracy. Among all outcome predictors, a ‘major procedural error’ during surgery in ostectomy for root apex identification and root end management seems to be the most impacting factor. Data from AAE active members indicate that access and visualization followed by root-end management are considered the most difficult stages for surgery. Most responders would positively consider additional advanced learning through new technologies. The conventional approach relies entirely on a free hand technique, which is operator dependent and subjected to difficulties and risk of complications. Among preclinical training options, 3D printed jaw models or cadaver lab are mostly utilized. However, they are destructive procedures and usually affected by high costs. Virtual reality simulations are demonstrating a huge potential and stimulating increased attention in dental medicine as a teaching tool. They provide a new and non-destructive approach whereby the operator can practice and repeat procedures with no limitations. The physical interactivity through haptic technology provides tactile force feedback to the user. To date there are no VR simulators equipped with software exercises to plan and practice EMS: osteotomy, apicectomy and ultrasonic retro preparation with real time assessment of the performance. The aim of this presentation is to illustrate the application of VR haptic simulation in endodontics and the creation of a novel virtual reality haptic training program in EMS. Furthermore, the potential integration with artificial intelligence and sensors based ergonomic software for student/operator profiling, quality assessment and risk prevention will be also discussed.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe the applications of virtual reality and haptic simulation in endodontics.
- Evaluate the impact of virtual reality simulation into clinical practice.
- Discuss the advantages of the integration of virtual reality simulation with artificial intelligence.

Description: Fear of dentistry, often due to past painful experiences, is a significant barrier preventing patients from visiting dentists. Achieving effective pain control, especially during root canal treatments, is crucial. However, inferior alveolar nerve blocks (IANBs) have a low success rate, influenced by factors such as anxiety, anatomical variations, and technique limitations, leading to anesthesia failure. Although numerous studies have examined the cold test and electric pulp test (EPT) in assessing the success of local anesthesia, no standardized method has been established. This study evaluated the effectiveness of EPT and cold tests in assessing the depth of anesthesia in patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis in the mandibular first molar teeth.
At the conclusion of this article, the reader will be able to:
- Describe the effectiveness of cold and electric pulp tests (EPT) in assessing the success of inferior alveolar nerve blocks (IANB) in patients with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis.
- Evaluate the sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values of the cold test and EPT in diagnosing pulpal anesthesia failure.
- Discuss the clinical implications of combining cold and electric pulp tests for improving diagnostic accuracy in determining pulpal anesthesia success.
