Dental radiology makes use of specific types of equipments needed for imaging purposes in dentistry. Frequent exposures though with low doses involve a risk for the practitioner and for the patient. Risks may vary from the increased occurrence of cancer, birth defects, cataracts and even shortening of life span. Hence it is mandatory for a dental practitioner to be familiar with the magnitude of radiation exposure, the possible risks and the methods used to keep the effective doses resulting from the imaging procedures as low as reasonably achievable.

Talk 4: Maxillary Expansion in Clinical Orthodontics
10.30 AM to 11.15 AM
Speaker: Dr. M P Julius BDS, MDS (Ortho) MOrtho RCS (Edin.), Specialist Orthodontist, Vitlalis Medical Centre Dubai.
Chairperson: Dr. Amjad Al Taki DDS, PhD (Ortho), Associate Professor, Ajman University of Science & Technology
In contemporary clinical orthodontic practice, great emphasis is given to non extraction strategies .This is mainly because non extraction cases result in better esthetic soft tissue facial profile, smile characteristics, functional occlusion without much of the unaesthetic buccal corridors. To achieve these objectives orthodontists take all efforts to use the various strategies at their disposal. Maxillary expansion is one such strategy. The presentation will discuss various methods and the appliances available towards this, illustrated with clinical cases.
Talk 5: Integration of Lasers in Daily Dental Practice

Dental lasers have been a controversial topic from the time Maiman introduced them in 1960 and have undergone many experiments and studies. With the newer advances in research and technology in the field of laser dentistry, we can now make our daily dental practice much easier and faster with laser assistance. Currently numerous laser sources are available, each having its own special properties. The understanding of these properties is a precondition for using lasers appropriately. Dental lasers are widely used in practise for better and long term good results. They can be easily integrated for routine dental procedures with minimal side effects provided they are used according to the proper protocol and power settings. The most important aspect in integrating lasers in a dental practice is the understanding of the biophysical interaction between the different laser wavelengths and different tissues.

The goals of periodontal therapy are arresting the disease process, preventing disease recurrence and regenerating periodontium, lost as a result of periodontal disease. Wound healing is a complex, well-orchestrated sequence of events. In studying the dynamics of cell-to-cell and cell-to-tissue interaction, scientists discovered the presence of growth factors. The presentation will discuss the techniques currently in use, which include open flap debridement, use of bone grafts, bone substitutes, guided tissue regeneration, combination techniques, root surface treatment and the use of biologics. It is also documented that these procedures in clinical periodontics and experimental studies have predictable results.

Ever since the introduction of rotary nickel titanium (RNT) instrumentation, choosing between the existing RNT systems has, largely, been a decision between safety and efficiency. The endodontic Glidepath is the secret to radicular rotary safety. This presentation will discuss the definition of Glidepath, the importance in producing optimum endodontic mechanics, and describe the preparation of a Glidepath for radicular shaping. The obstacles to Glidepath preparation and the solutions to overcome them will also be discussed to produce a safe rotary result and a good endodontic experience.
