The Illinois Academy of General Dentistry in conjunction with the Wisconsin Academy of General Dentistry are pleased to present:

Endodontics for the
General Practitioner
Efficiency Through
Simplicity

Presented by

Dr. David Landwehr

Virtual Zoom Meeting/Webinar

May 22-23, 2021

Speaker: Dr. David Landwehr

A Wisconsin native, Dr. David Landwehr earned his DDS at the University of Minnesota. He received an MS degree and certificate in Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology at Ohio State University, followed by specialty training in Endodontics at the University of Michigan.
Dr. Landwehr has been a private practice clinician for more than 20 years.

Course Description:

Endodontic success Is dependent on a variety of interrelated factors, but maximum removal of bacteria is the ultimate goal. The pathway
to endodontic diagnosis is filled with twists and turns that often prevent the clinician from making an accurate diagnosis. After a diagnosis has been established, root canal anatomy and glide path management are the next considerations. It is imperative that all canals are located and cleaned to the root apex. This session will place special emphasis on locating the hard-to-find canals prior to using rotary instruments in order to establish a predictable and reproducible glide path to the root apex. Efficient instrumentation will be discussed, along with enhanced irrigation protocols.
Finally, state-of-the art obturation and restorative procedures will be presented.

Course Objectives:

This course will cover:
1. The limitations of pulp testing and gaining a better understanding of the potential for bias in radiographic interpretation
2. Clinically relevant strategies for locating typical root canal anatomies and tips for identifying hard-to-find canals
3. The importance of glide path management and the benefits of creating a reproducible enhanced glide path with a single mechanical
instrument, while preserving maximum dentin for restoration and function
4. Instrumentation techniques to create the final root canal shape, along with state-of-the-art disinfection and 3 dimensional obturation
protocols

This course will be a Zoom virtual meeting/webinar and will require the use of a computer (preferably) or tablet and the doctor will need to enable video and audio for the course. The hands-on portion
of this course will require the use of a high and slow speed dental handpiece, restorative dental instruments and some materials. The attendees will need to do the course in an dental office or have
a portable/electric slow and high speed available. An email will be sent to all the registrants with more information.
