Naast het hoofdprogramma wordt ook een parallelcongres georganiseerd, gericht op tandartsen-algemeen practici, tandarts-gnathologen en orofaciaal fysiotherapeuten, met als thema Gedragsverandering in de tandarts- en fysiotherapie praktijk.
Inleiding Ivo Krejci
Caries, similar to periodontitis, is a transmissible uncurable and thus chronic disease. Carious lesions are symptoms of this life-long disease. They must be treated in the most minimally invasive way to comply with the philosophy of secondary prevention within a life-long dental coaching concept. Direct and indirect adhesive composite restorations are the best restorative choice within this concept, which should result in patients keeping their own dentition during their entire lifetime. The lecture will focus on the philosophy as well as on detailed clinical aspects of this concept.

Inleiding Panos Bazos
With the refinement of adhesive dental technology, bonding materials and protocols, clinicians and technicians are given the opportunity to creatively emulate the natural anatomic structures found in teeth.
In the modern dental practice, the restoration and the tooth should unite in such a manner as to form a structural and optical cohesive medium.
A thorough understanding of the histo-anatomic structures and color properties of the natural dentition provides the dental team with a strategic advantage.
This presentation will attempt to shed light on the three dimensional coronal configuration of natural teeth and the utilization of this knowledge in the clinical and technical restorative approach.
Objectives
Introducing and examining the histo-anatomic approach.
Establishing the quantitative expression of Enamel / DEC / Dentin.
Understanding external and internal dental morphology and the implications on color perception.
Clinical shade estimation strategies and implementation of the Tri_Laminar and Penta_Laminar stratification protocols.
