The Psychology of Success: The Secrets the Superstars Know
Robert A. Convissar, DDS, FAGD
Travels From New York City, NY (JFK) and (LGA)
The excitement, hype and benefits of laser dentistry have been shaped, stretched, exaggerated and often poorly conveyed by the dental laser industry in an attempt to promote a truly revolutionary tool in your practice’s armamentarium. Lasers have an important role to play in general dentistry, but you need to learn from an independent voice.
Dr. Bob Convissar has been a pioneer in laser dentistry. He was one of the very first dentists to incorporate lasers into general practice and has written numerous text books and peer reviewed papers on the subject. He’s seen and heard it all and works diligently to convey his knowledge while dispelling the myths from the true benefits. When it comes to training and certification, Dr. Convissar recognizes that knowledge and proper training will build the confidence required to allow you and your staff to incorporate lasers effectively into your practice and use them to their fullest capacity.Topics
• Laser Dentistry • Clinical
• Dr. Convissar has lectured at virtually every large dental meeting multiple times and six years in a row for ADA. He has circumnavigated the globe three times as a lecturer.
• He is the only laser lecturer to have been named one of the Top 100 Leaders in C.E. by Dentistry Today TWELVE times in a row (2005 – 2016)
• Dr. Convissar is one of the only dentists in the 60 year history of the Dental Clinics of North America series of textbooks to have been asked to edit/author the same topic (laser dentistry) twice – October 2000 and October 2004.

Dr. Convissar’s Presentations
As many as 5% of all babies born in the United States have tongue-ties significant enough to cause breastfeeding difficulties. This condition can cause a plethora of problems for both babies (difficulty transferring milk, lack of growth) and their mothers (sore or cracked nipples, mastitis and low milk supply). Babies with tongue-ties can be erroneously labeled as “lazy nursers,” “stubborn feeders” or as “failures to thrive. “In this course, attendees will receive an overview of tongue- tie assessment and treatment. A separate hands-on workshop is available.

The workshop includes hands-on experience with lasers, performing procedures on pig mandibles. Real time videos of routine laser procedures will be part of the in-depth discussion of specific instrument settings and techniques for laser surgical procedures.

Soft and hard tissue regeneration has always been an ideal, yet elusive goal when treating periodontal and peri-implant disease. This course will provide the attendee with a 12 step program to achieve laser-assisted periodontal tissue regeneration. This technique is also applicable to peri-implantitis treatment. Though lasers have been used in dentistry for over 25 years, and many laser companies have made many claims about regeneration of tissue, these techniques will be proven to work via case reviews and supported by a critical review of the peer-reviewed literature.

Travels From Atlanta (ATL)
The phrase “Work-Life Balance” is a common one; its useful shorthand when we talk about the normal, everyday tradeoffs and juggling it takes to keep the things afloat, at home and in the workplace.
But sometimes, a life issue emerges that is so enormous and disruptive, the scales tip. Everything falls out of balance. When a person is deeply affected by a huge disruption in his or her life, performance in the workplace can’t help but be affected as well. Common life stressors that can show up at the office include:
• Death of a loved one • Separation, divorce, and relationship problems • Severe medical challenges • Financial problems and foreclosure • Parenting and child behavior issues • Physical and emotional abuse • Abuse of drugs and alcohol (personal or in the family) • Legal problems
Topics
• Communication • Conflict Resolution • Risk Management • Team Building
• For the past 20 years, Kim has staffed, trained and coached dental offices in Georgia, creating a team of elite dental professionals who understand and love what they do.
• Drawing from 11 years’ experience in personnel and client crisis management for two large plaintive law firms, Kim’s presentations offer real world skills and solutions for coping, communication and conflict resolution.
• With 20 years coaching experience and as an ordained minister, Kim’s programs offer practical, actionable, and meaningful ways to help people in crisis.
• Her entertaining, fun, unique teambuilding workshops are full of hands-on, “real-life dental office experiences.”

Want respect, results and joy back in your practice?

This influences the way patients perceive the practice – and their decisions to accept treatment.
Re-ignite the passion and commitment of your team. Learn how to lead your team out of conflict. Find out why timing is everything. Create a culture of cooperation and collaboration by “untangling” the disputes and setting preventative guidelines in place. Learn techniques and strategies for more effective patient and team communications, inspiring others to action, and eliminating negative attitudes for good!

The playing field is not level. Some patients may be predisposed to pain.
Treating patients with similar teeth, comparable medical / dental histories, and using the same clinical approach, may not result in a common outcome. While one patient may experience absolutely no pain the other may have severe pain and swelling. Often the clinician assumes that the problem is due to a procedural error. However, that may not be the complete answer.
Pain is affected by a number of well-defined demographic, socio-cultural, psychological and biological variables. Drawing upon his extensive clinical knowledge and his research while using the best available evidence, Dr. Paul A. Rosenberg will review the influence of genetics, gender and anxiety as well as specific clinical factors that can predispose a patient to pain.
Dr. Rosenberg’s Presentation
The educational goal of this evidence-based translational presentation is to broaden the participant’s understanding of biological and clinical factors associated with pain from pulp/periapical pathosis and endodontic treatment.
Take the learning deeper!
The Endodontic/Implant Relationship: History, Present, Future
This evidenced based presentation will focus on the dynamic treatment planning relationship between Endodontics and Implants. The history of that relationship, where it is today and what the future looks like will be reviewed. Case selection and strategies to avoid complications will be discussed in order to provide the patient with the most predictable outcome. Concerning the future we will review evidence relating to who is most likely to be placing implants in the future and how general practice will be affected. At the conclusion of this presentation the clinician will be better prepared to make treatment planning decisions concerning Endodontics or Implants.
Practice Management Aspects of the Lecture
Our culture associates endodontics with pain. This lecture provides important clinical tips that are useful for the clinician in preventing and efficiently treating pain. The tips can be used in your practice to alter your pain management strategy. Patients who experience pain-free endodontics can be your best advocates and an effective practice builder!
