The entreaties for clinical content seem to be falling on deaf ears sadly. Having been involved with online discussion forums since 1998, the learning from shared cases is a fabric of my daily existence. Hopefully, the same can occur for the blog visitors; all it takes is a few folks to collect a few images and a few words – better yet, I’ll show ya!!!
From Terry Pannkuk – a Santa Barbarian endude!!!!
This was a 3 step procedure treating the Type 3 Heithersay. (ARTICLE IS AVAILABLE – JUST CLICK) 1. Clean, shape, place CH. 2. Obturate the canals, place core, 3. Today’s flap and surgical repair of the labial defect which extended apically a bit and required and irregular prep before placing the Geristore. This is a preview of some of the things that will be mentioned at the online resorption presentation I’ll be giving. It looks like March 23 will be the date in 3 weeks. Limited attendance 25. I’m just getting the last confirmation from Rick Schwartz to make sure he can attend. Marga Ree is in, which will make it a valuable discussion having their added input. (ONLINE DISCUSSION FORUMS ABOUND MES ENFANTS!!!! Key features I thought were important in this case: Bone had to be cleared from the apical margin. You need clear margins to make sure you’ve eliminated the active areas of resorption and minimize bleeding giving you better control during the placement of Geristore. Forget saving a papilla! …you’re trying to save the tooth. The last thing you want is a horizontal papilla saving incision which greatly complicates hemostasis and visualization of the cleared margins. More will be discussed at the presentation, like how to deliver the Geristore, and subtle features of clinical management that make this predictable. I’ll send the link out for registration by tomorrow. If you want to be on the list send me an email. It will be worth 2 CE hours –
When the link comes on ROOTS – I’ll update this entry to see if anyone bites…..similar opportunities abound in Canada…..I’d donate a kidney to see the blog become the harbinger of online clinical presentations from sea to shining sea…….Oral Health has the ability to do this – MAKE IT HAPPEN MES ENFANTS!!!! Uhmember Alfalfa – double click images…..
This case is a lingual surgical resorption repair.
