Charles Wakefield, DDS, MAGD, ABGD
In this workshop, participants will learn how to make
outstanding lifelike composite restorations quickly using
shades, instrumentation and the latest light curing unit. Class
I composites will be placed using new SonicFill technology.
Class II composites will be accomplished creating the ideal interproximal
contacts every time. Class IV composites and anterior composite veneers will be
practiced that will rival porcelain restorations. Simplified finishing and polishing
techniques will be illustrated, as well as tips on how to avoid post-operative
sensitivity.
Learning Objectives:
• Learn properties of composites that must be considered in selection of
materials
• Practice the new SonicFill composite placement techniques

Current Concepts in Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy
Leah MacPherson, RDH, BS, MHP
This is a course for oral health-care providers interested in an
update in non-surgical periodontal therapy. This course will
review the literature concerning periodontal risk factors, and
how to use the information to assess patients for risk versus
treating disease. We will review the host response and the cascade of events
that occur in periodontitis, as well as highlight some of the periodontal and
systemic connections.
Learning Objectives:
• Review the various types of periodontal conditions, microbiology
and their treatment
• Determine a patient’s level of periodontal risk
• Discuss the host response and the cascade of events that occur
during periodontal disease in understandable terms

Dental Recordkeeping – Back to Basics
Periodontal Updates for the Dental Hygienist
Leah MacPherson, RDH, BS, MHP
Michael Gardner,
DDS
Greg Anderson,
DDS
Helene Goldberg,
BA, DDS
Professional, ethical and legal responsibilities require that a complete chart and
record documenting all aspects of each patient’s dental care be maintained.
A detailed chart accurately records the patient’s dental condition when first
presenting at the office, assists and supports a proper diagnosis and treatment
planning, and provides a clear description of the patient’s ongoing care. Good
records are also the dentist’s best defence in the event of a formal complaint or
lawsuit. In this presentation, RCDSO representatives offer guidance and practical
advice in understanding the dental recordkeeping requirements in Ontario.
Learning Objectives:
• Understand and appreciate the reasons for keeping good patient records
• Describe the requirements for various components of a complete chart
• Identify problem areas and take advantage of helpful tips to keeping better
patient records
