28th Berlin Prophylaxis Day

Friday, 06.12.2024 – With accompanying dental exhibition

Medical history – why is it so important?

The aim is to ensure that all points on the medical history are understood and can be classified correctly. The connections between diseases and dentistry are explained and what you need to pay attention to during prophylaxis.

Why is a medical history important and what should it contain?
Which indices can be used sensibly?
How does biofilm management differ from tried and tested methods?
Which materials, which devices and which instruments can be used?

Mucositis and peri-implantitis – what role does oral hygiene play?

The treatment of mucositis and peri-implantitis is difficult and unfortunately not always successful. An important component in the treatment of peri-implant infections is the reduction of biofilm. The practice team has various methods at its disposal – from brushing and flossing to various instruments and the use of air-powder water jet devices.

Start with prophylaxis before implant placement and make your patients aware of the special needs of implants.

Accepting the challenge together!

Patient motivation – the art of listening!

A successful and future-oriented practice offers patients a pleasant atmosphere in which they feel comfortable and are happy to return.
Happy, satisfied and motivated patients ensure the profitability of the practice, are loyal and ensure enthusiastic recommendations.
The modern dental practice needs strategies that can be easily implemented in everyday practice life and at the same time inspire the team and patients.

How can patient satisfaction be ensured in the long term?
Motivating yourself, patients and the team

All or nothing? Fluorides used correctly!

Use in patients from 1 to 18 years of age

In this workshop, the basics and objectives of the use of fluorides in pediatric dentistry will be discussed again.

The four pillars of healthy teeth form the basic prerequisite for successful child prophylaxis with the appropriate amounts of fluoride. The focus is on age-appropriate fluoridation measures from the outset to prevent caries, taking into account the general effect and effectiveness of fluorides in pediatric dentistry. This is accompanied by a fluoride anamnesis with subsequent calculation of the fluoride concentration in the preparations used.

Participants should after the end of the workshop:

Know the general effect and mechanisms of action of fluorides.
Know how fluorides work in the human body.
Understanding the four pillars of healthy teeth.
Be able to take a fluoride anamnesis.
Be able to calculate the fluoride concentration.
Master the use of fluorides in the appropriate age groups.

Reaching the goal together – motivating as a team effort!

The course is aimed at prophylaxis professionals who work together as a team to increase their patients’ motivation for oral hygiene.

The focus is on the joint development of strategies for motivation and their implementation in daily practice. Participants learn how to develop a common language and methodology as a team in order to motivate patients effectively. The course teaches techniques for mutual support and communication within the team in order to continuously maintain and pass on motivation.

Another focus is on developing joint motivation programs and adapting them to the individual needs of patients. Participants will learn how to improve motivation and outcomes through regular communication and feedback within the team. The course also highlights the role of team dynamics and collegial support in achieving common goals.

The aim is to enable the prophylaxis specialists to act as a strong, motivated team and to lead their patients to the best possible oral hygiene through joint efforts.

Is there something or is there nothing?

Common oral mucosal changes seen during prophylaxis

The aim of the course is to recognize and correctly classify oral mucosal changes and diseases. You will learn to distinguish what a normal oral mucosa is and what you need to look out for and what you need to do if there are any abnormalities.

Fissure sealing – how do we do it right?

From the basics…

On which guideline is it based?
On which material technology theories is it based?
When should it be used and when not?
What materials are available and when and how can they be used sensibly?
Do I always need a cofferdam?

…through to practical implementation.

Periodontitis treatment course – structure, content and goal!

A long-distance run for the entire practice team

The treatment of periodontitis patients according to current guidelines is complex and requires patience on the part of patients and dentists. In order to preserve patients’ own teeth and quality of life in the long term, the cooperation of the entire practice team is required: dental nurses, dental hygienists, dental hygienists and dentists – a clear distribution of tasks enables success!

Implementation in everyday practice

When dealing with children, we also need communication skills that go beyond professional expertise. These “soft” skills are referred to as soft skills. They describe personal skills and attitudes that have a positive influence on the behavior of young patients and motivate them.

In addition, preventive practice concepts are needed that are based on scientific evidence and can be easily implemented in everyday practice.

You can look forward to many inspirations and practical examples for your child prophylaxis, e.g:

Dental screening examinations and individual prophylaxis measures
Sealing of fissures

Prophylaxis for MIH patients

In this workshop, the clinical appearance of molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) and possible prophylactic measures will be discussed.

MIH has been on our radar more and more in recent years. As part of the routine examination of children with mixed dentition and their prophylaxis, MIH with its possible hypersensitivity presents us with a challenge. The prophylaxis measures with necessary desensitization of the teeth and their impaired enamel surface are also limited. Non-invasive cleaning measures are presented, taking into account existing opacities and the possibility of partial fissure sealing of the first permanent MIH molars.

Participants should after the end of the workshop:

Know the general clinical presentation of MIH.
Understanding the desensitization of MIH teeth.
Master the differentiation of MIH opacities.
Know non-invasive prophylaxis options.
Partial fissure sealing can be compared to classic fissure sealing.

Motivating in prophylaxis – marathon or short distance

The course is dedicated to the role of the prophylaxis professional as an ongoing motivator and coach for patients. The focus is on techniques for effective oral hygiene instruction and training of patients to ensure their long-term oral health. Participants will learn how to guide their patients towards regular and thorough oral care through targeted motivation.

The course teaches practical methods for providing patients with individualized care and continuously monitoring their progress. Psychological approaches to motivation are discussed as well as practical exercises to improve oral hygiene. Participants learn how they can use positive reinforcement and constructive feedback to have a lasting influence on their patients’ behavior.

Another focus is on communication and building a trusting patient relationship. The aim is to strengthen prophylaxis specialists in their role as “personal trainers” and to provide them with tools to motivate their patients to maintain continuous and effective oral hygiene.
