Continuing Education

Dr. Haymore places an imperative on keeping up with the latest Endodontic science and technology and diligently attends seminars and conferences addressing the latest advances in the field. Recently, he attended the AAE conference on Endodontic Revascularization Technique. This was a hands-on course focusing attention on human autologous fibrin matrices, such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP), previously suggested for use as a regenerative scaffold material. The course included basic venipuncture techniques, preparation of PRP and placement of PRP in a stimulated root canal system.

In addition to that seminar, Dr. Haymore attended a conference entitled: "Changing Endodontic Concepts and Outcomes: The Multifaceted Use of Mineral Trioxide Aggregate and the Conservative Restoration of Endodontically Treated Teeth." This lecture by George Bogen, DDS, was comprised of two parts. Part I: The discovery of MTA (Mineral Trioxide Aggregate) as a reliable bioactive silicate cement in endodontic treatment has provided a quantum leap forward in healing rates for compromised teeth. No longer is the implant the only treatment option for patients who desire to retain their dentition when extensive endodontic pathosis is present. Part II: Concepts of posting and coring the root canal treated tooth have dramatically changed in the last decade. The presentation reviewed a conservative approach to successful posting.
