‘Exceeding Expectations’
AAE unveils
highlights
for annual
session in
Honolulu
T
he American Association of
Endodontists 2013 Annual Session offers more than 100 highquality educational sessions. The
meeting, being held April 17–20 at the
Hawaii Convention Center in Honolulu,
offers attendees the chance to earn up to
22.5 hours of continuing education credits. The theme of the event is “Endodontics: Exceeding Expectations.”
Curriculum varies across nine different
tracks. New tracks this year are “Endo 2025,”
“Imaging,” “Pain and Pharmacology” and
“Systemic Health,” covering topics such as
tissue engineering, pain management, outcome assessments, medical myths in dentistry and more. “Mega-Session Wednesday,” also new, will allow attendees to delve
deeper into a topic of their choice with
longer, more in-depth presentations on the
first day of the meeting.
“We have educational sessions given by
cutting-edge presenters on cutting-edge
topics,” said AAE President Dr. James C.
Kulild. “Attendees can apply those principles in their own practices in order to increase their quality of care and their value to their referrers and their patients.”
The always-popular Master Clinician
Series and hands-on workshops will feature leading experts in topics such as
“Differential Diagnosis of Pain,” “Clinical
Application of High-Resolution CBCT in
Endodontics,” “Maximizing the Value of
Your Endodontic Service” and “Functional Crown-Lengthening Surgery.” Attendees can attend one of these workshops for
a more hands-on experience in technique
and then head to a practice management
course or to the exhibit hall to explore
specialized endodontic distributors.
In addition to C.E. opportunities, numerous special events fill the schedule, allowing attendees to network and catch up
with old and new friends. The schedule for
the meeting sessions start and end earlier
this year, allowing guests to explore the
beautiful Honolulu surroundings. The
AAE Foundation live auction will feature
a dunk tank, where well-known members
have volunteered to help raise money by
testing the fate of the payers’ accuracy.
Additionally, during the Grossman break-

complete without a trip to the largest
endodontic exhibit hall in the world. Attendees can talk to representatives from
major dental and medical suppliers,
explore new products and services being offered, and take advantage of show
deals only available in Honolulu.
The exhibit hall schedule is Wednesday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Thursday

For the past 15 years, Essential Dental
Seminars has been presenting research
and lectures in the field of endodontics.
Essential Dental Seminars is now expanding its C.E. curriculum to include
the latest research, studies, practice
management techniques and the tools
dentists need to succeed.
The upcoming expanded course syllabus includes “What the Taxpayer Relief
Act Means to Your Practice,” presented by
Joel Burstein, CPA. In this course, dental
professionals will learn the new requirements and reporting practices mandatory for all dentists, along with the effects
they will have on the dental professional,
the practice, employees and the budget,
and why purchasing products in 2013
will cost dentists at least 2.3 percent
more. This course is intended to teach
dental professionals ways to be proactive
and combat these changes. The course
will take place Friday, April 26, from 9 to
11 a.m. at Essential Dental Seminars, 89
Leuning St., South Hackensack, N.J.
Dr. Fiona M. Collins will present “A
Walk Through the Cycle of Infection
Prevention” on Wednesday, May 15, at
the Courtyard San Diego Mission Valley in California. This lecture will teach
students step by step how to protect a
practice from infection, and about the
myths of infection prevention. Students
will learn the necessary steps to keeping
a sterile dental environment.
More C.E. courses will follow. For
more information and to register, visit
www.essentialseminars.org or call Ginger Pierro at (888) 542-6376.
