Track 1: Orthodontics

 It is also termed as a dentofacial orthopedics and orthodontia. It mainly primarily deals with the mispositioned teeth and the jaws. Dentofacial Orthopedics treatment mainly focus on treatment of dental displacement and control and modification of facial growth. By using orthodontic appliances, they will treat malocclusion. Decalcification: Root restoration will also come under orthodontic treatment. Orthodontic indices are one of the few tools that are available for orthodontics to grade and asses malocclusion.

Some of the orthodontic indices are

• Angle's classification
• Malignment Index
• Occlusal Feature Index
• Malocclusion Severity Estimate (MSE)
• Treatment Priority Index (TPI)
• Dental Aesthetic Index (DAI)
• Ideal Tooth Relationship Index

Track 3: Fluoride & Fluoridation in Dentistry

Fluoride is a mineral found in soil and water and various food materials. Fluoride has positive effect on oral health. It can prevent or reverse tooth decay.

Track 10: Dental materials

Dental materials should have certain characteristics to be effective in dental health maintenance. Characteristics which are particularly important are safety and compatibility with oral tissues. Dental materials and devices are regulated for safety and efficacy by the FDA.

Efficacy can be defined as the ability of a dental material to function as was intended within the oral cavity.

Following are the some of the ideal characteristics of dental materials

• Biocompatibility
• Cleanable
• Repairable
• Resistant to corrosion
• Longevity
• Esthetically pleasing

Following are the common dental materials

• Composite: Direct Restoration, Veneers, Inlays
• Amalgam:  Direct Restorations
• Porcelain: Crowns, Bridges, Veneers, inlays and onlays
• Acrylic: Dentures, Partial dentures
• Gutta Percha: Root Canals
• Thermoplastics: Bleaching’s, Orthodontic appliances
• Meta Alloys: Partial Dental Claps
• Stainless Steel: Crowns
• Titanium: Implants
• Zirconium: Fixed prosthetics

Track 12: Pregnancy and Oral Health

 Being pregnant puts you at higher risk for tooth decay, gum disease (also known as pregnancy gingivitis) and oral growths called ‘pregnancy tumour’s Most of these conditions are treatable. If pregnant lady is suffering from moderate to severe gum diseases. Higher risk chances for delivering a pre-term, low-birth weight baby. It can be easily diagnosed by dental X rays. Dental X rays are safe during the pregnancy. Anaesthesia during the first trimester may be linked to early miscarriage. Any dental work that requires anaesthesia such as a filling or root canal treatment, it is better to postpone the procedure until the second trimester of your pregnancy.

To keep your teeth healthy during pregnancy, make sure to have following ingredients in your diet.

• Calcium
• vitamin A
• vitamin C
• vitamin D
• protein, and
• phosphorous

Pregnancy mother with poor oral health have a risk of

• delivering a pre-term baby
• delivering a baby with a low birth weight
• having pre-eclampsia (pregnancy hypertension)

Babies who are pre-term or have low birth weight have a higher risk of developmental complications

• asthma
• ear infections
• birth abnormalities
• behavioural difficulties
•  infant death

Pregnancy gingivitis, pregnancy tumors are common oral diseases encountered by most of the pregnant ladies.

Track 13: Endodontics: 

It mainly encompasses the study and practice of the maintenance of the dental pulp. It also includes diagnosis: prevention and treatment of diseases and injuries of the dental pulp along with associated periradicular conditions.

The main purpose of the endodontic treatment is to remove the pathological pulp and clean and shape the root canal system. Disinfect the contaminated root canal and prevent re-infection and promote healing. The main reason behind the dental pulp problems is related to bacterial contamination of the root canal.

• VELscope
• ViziLite

3. Endodontic Systems : Root canal therapy implies set of procedures that aims to shape: clean root canals of infected tooth. These systems have the advantages of monitoring the root canal before during and after the root canal treatment.

4. CAD/CAM Technology :  These are systems can improve the design and creations of dental restorations : including the crowns: veneers: fixed bridges. These can also be used to complete the dental restorations.

5. Diagnodent and  Air abrasion: Diagnodentis mainly used for detecting the early cavities by using sound pulse and laser. Air abrasion alternative method for dental drill.

• Dental Implant Technologies
• Oral Cancer Screening
• Endodontic Systems
• Diagnodent and Air Abrasion
