Overview
What you will study
What’s the best way to approach a large carious lesion? Can we avoid exposure of the pulp and endodontic therapy if the tooth is vital and asymptomatic? What will happen if we leave some soft dentin under a well-sealed restoration? What does the scientific evidence tell us?
In this Treatment of the Deep Caries Lesion course offered by University of Toronto , specific guidelines will be developed for treatment of very deep lesions, small carious lesions, and recurrent caries. Many clinical cases will be presented, to directly apply this information to the dentist’s daily routine.
Programme Structure
The program focuses on:
- see caries as a disease process and treat lesions using the “medical model”
- understand the nature of soft dentin, and its ability to be remineralized
- be able to choose between indirect pulp caps, “stepwise excavation”, and “ultraconservative caries removal”
- know the indications for, and advantages of, glass ionomer materials, including the “open sandwich technique”
- be familiar with “atraumatic” caries removal
