Date: 26 August 2022 (Friday)

Venue: Chettinad Dental College and Research Institute, Kancheepuram.

Abstract

Crestal Bone resorption after extraction leads to significant dimensional change in the ridge. Guided bone regeneration (GBR) is widely used in dentistry for augmentation of hard and in implant dentistry. The procedure involves the placement of a barrier membrane along with particulate bone/graft materials which aids in regeneration of bone in the desired area.

Angiogenesis & ample blood supply play a very important role in the success of GBR. GBR is done using resorbable or non-resorbable membranes which aid in migration of bone forming cells into the defect area. Recently platelet Rich Fibrin which was developed in early 2000 has the capability to be used as a natural barrier membrane in GBR. Platelets have growth factors that increases vascularization and collagen production.

This program is aimed at providing an evidence-based approach for guided bone regeneration in implant dentistry. The program has brief lectures on GBR followed by a live demonstration of the procedures on goat mandible. Demo will include use of resorbable/ non-resorbable membranes and PRF membranes and advantages and limitations for each of them.

WE prevents malocclusions, WE prevents decay, WE prevents chew swallow dysfunctions, WE prevents Sleep related breathing disorders.

Were you ever told in dental school that the self-correcting anomalies actually do not self-correct most of the times?

Have you ever thought that these so-called self-correcting anomalies could be indicators that pointed growth was not happening optimally or to the fullest potential?

Were you taught to look at the airway behind the mouth and the person behind the airway in your dental curriculum?

Did you ever know that you can help children eat, sleep and breathe better with simple oral exercises?

WE are glad to open the horizons for you.

It is time to break the treatment philosophy of WAIT and WATCH and adapt to the concept of intervene as and when you see any anomaly occurring. 

The whole idea of prevention is justified only when the problem is caught and corrected at the earliest. The oro-facial myofunctional therapy aims at organically channelising growth and establishing optimal function during the growing years if and when any deviation from the normal is observed. The therapy includes performing various exercises using the oro-facial muscles to diminish the fatigue and strengthen the muscles.

MYOLINE protocol is a strategically curated myofunctional therapy program to optimize the functions needs of the oro-facial-respiratory complex in a child. The protocol has been designed to align teeth naturally using guided jaw growth. Although this can be only considered as a by-product to establishing proper functions of nasal breathing, right pattern of swallowing and chewing. MYOLINE protocol is the brain child born after treating more than 6000 children who benefitted from the myofunctional therapy.

The Pre-conference Lecture will cover the various domains of the myoline protocol and unravel the potential of preventive and interceptive orthodontics in helping children.
