Outline:

Successful debridement is key to improving client outcomes for those suffering from periodontal disease. Instrumentation is a challenge with many facets to consider. This unique hands-on workshop will expand your armamentarium, add new techniques and solve those areas you find difficult. Increased knowledge on the “How” and the “Why” will improve confidence in evidence-based decision-making when delivering nonsurgical periodontal therapy.  

• Effectively analyze gingival clinical markers and understand the relationship to debridement required. 
• Examine periodontal debridement along with advanced fulcrums   
• Increase instrumentation skills by analyzing, demonstrating and evaluating new techniques with new and familiar hand-activated instruments. 
• Recognize and understand how making different instrument choices will affect periodontal debridement outcomes.

Participants are asked to bring their loupes if they have them. If not, there will be an opportunity to try loupes out during the workshop.
