A preview of AO
Mid-Atlantic
Regional Meeting

AO on the East Coast
By AO Staff
W
ith a focus on multidisciplinary evidence-based implant dentistry and the latest surgical, prosthetic and
laboratory technologies, the Academy of
Osseointegration’s (AO) Mid-Atlantic Regional Meeting will feature AO member
presenters from leading university programs along the East Coast.
To be held at the Gaylord Resort & Conference Center in scenic National Harbor, Md., the program will consist of two
hands-on workshops on Sept. 14, plus a
full-day program on Sept. 15.
Kicking off the full-day main program
on the 15th will be Edgard El Chaar, DDS,
MS, director of Postgraduate Periodontics Specialty Program at New York University. His presentation will be entitled,
“Innovative Strategies and Techniques in
Ridge Augmentation.”
El Chaar asserts that ridge augmentation procedure and implant dentistry
have evolved over the years and become
a cornerstone in the treatment plan.
With that, a number of practitioners have
embarked on this journey, raising the bar
and revealing complications that require

a new, more creative way of solving them.
With the advent of technologies and material, a more predictable result is achievable in this ever-changing environment.
“A practitioner involved in implant
dentistry, and bone regeneration in particular, needs predictability in rendering
treatment. I will be sharing the latest innovation that I have introduced based on
sound biological foundation to help render a more predictable regenerative outcome. With that, biology always wins,” El
Chaar said.
Thomas Taylor, DDS, MSD, head of the
Department of Reconstructive Sciences
at the University of Connecticut School
of Dental Medicine, will follow El Chaar
with his presentation on “Occlusion and
Dental Implants – What Gives?”
“I’m looking forward to spending some
time with folks who are interested in
what factors dictate long-term success
and failure in dental implants. There is so
much myth and misconception out there
that could be dangerous in the wrong situation. I hope to shed some light on what
occlusal factors are important and which
are not so important,” Taylor said.
According to Taylor, the biomechanical
basis for implant component design has
evolved dramatically since the early days
of implant dentistry. Changes in thread
profile, surface treatment, materials, connector configurations and many other
aspects have improved the strength, stability and esthetic outcome of implantsupported restorations.

Regional Meeting. Register at https://

AAOMS to honor 100th anniversary
during its annual meeting in Chicago
By AAOMS Staff
T
he American Association of
Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons
(AAOMS) will celebrate its centennial anniversary during its 100th
Annual Meeting, Scientific Sessions and
Exhibition from Oct. 8 to 13 in Chicago.
More than 4,000 oral and maxillofacial
surgeons, faculty, residents and others
are expected to gather in the city where
the association was originally founded.
In 1918, 29 doctors convened to hold the
first meeting of the American Society of
Exodontists, the organization that later
became AAOMS.
The AAOMS Annual Meeting — one
of the largest and most comprehensive
IT0718_.indd 1
educational conferences in the world for
oral and maxillofacial surgeons and staff
— will feature approximately 170 educational programs at the Hilton Chicago
and McCormick Place West. Sessions will
expound on such timely topics as the
treatment of war injuries, advancements
in cancer care and emerging technologies
in maxillofacial nerve injuries.
Among other highlights of the centennial celebration are:
A history museum will showcase artifacts related to the specialty — such as
surgical mallets and cheek retractors — a
historical timeline of association milestones and videos of interviews of past association presidents.
A “100 Years of AAOMS” course will
summarize the specialty’s history and
discuss the evolution from exodontists to
oral and maxillofacial surgeons.
Former Secretary of State and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General
Colin L. Powell, USA (Ret.), will deliver the
meeting’s keynote address, “Leadership:
Taking Charge,” on Oct. 10.
A new educational program will feature
nine tracks based on the OMS scope of
practice: anesthesia, cosmetic and orthognathic surgery, dental implants, dentoalveolar, head and neck oncology, pediatrics
and cleft, reconstruction, temporomandibular joint and trauma.
Other notable events include:
• A hands-on, full-day cadaver workshop covering the most common cosmetic surgical procedures of the facial region.
• The Chalmers J. Lyons Memorial Lec-
ture focusing on how induced pluripotent
stem cells may be used for tissue regeneration.
• Meet the Experts and Master Class sessions allowing attendees to discuss trends
and innovations with legends in the specialty.
• A new World Café, where senior surgeons will address patient cases and best
practices while attendees will be able to
connect with their peers from around the
globe.
• A two-day Beyond the Basics Coding
Workshop that will review procedural
coding, health-care reform initiatives, audit tips and reimbursement issues.
Registration is now open. More information is available at AAOMS.org/
Chicago.
