Dr. Jean-Michel
Morand: Pediatric Dentistry Update
After 2 generations of
impressive advances, early trends in the decline of
dental caries seem to have halted if not reversed in
our industrialized countries. The time for some questioning
might have come: what has evidence based science determined
and do we practice what we know?

Dr. Patrick A.
Adriaens: Preservation of alveolar bone volume: changing
approach to tooth extraction
A technique based on the principles of guided
tissue regeneration is described. Following atraumatic
extraction, a resorbable barrier membrane is adapted
and stabilized between the alveolar bone and the mucosa
surrounding the extraction site. Clinical and histological
observations demonstrate maintenance of crestal bone
volume and woven bone formation. This approach facilitates
subsequent implant placement or prosthetic rehabilitation.

Dr. Franck Renouard: Condition
of success in implant dentistry : breaking the dogma"
A literature review and a 2- to 5-year retrospective
study on 247 short implants shows that the success rate
of short implants could be compared to longer one s.
It seems that the only way to improve the implant load
bearing capacity is to increase its diameter, not its
length. The lecture shows that short implants could
be in practice with a high success rate.

Dr. Jean Buquet: History of Implantology
When setting an objective such as flying like a bird
or replacing a missing tooth man will test the various
solutions developed by his imagination regardless of
the immediate consequences until he succeeds. The different
approaches with their results and failures which have
led to modern implantology will be presented and compared
with the many attempts and failures illustrating the
history of aviation.

Dr. Patrick Simonet: Passivity
of fit : A biological and Mechanical Paradox
A passive fit was considered almost essential for the
long term success of osseointegration but recent studies
have produced data indicating that prosthesis misfit
may be less significant than once thought. We are faced
with the following paradox : new computerized technology
improves tremendously the mechanical and technical end
result, but it be totally irrelevant from a biological
point of view.

Dr. Jean-Louis Giovannoli: Evidence
based therapy of inflammatory peri implant diseases
Clinical experience demonstrates that marginal peri-implant
inflammation due to infection can induce severe bone
loss and lead to secondary implant failure although
the incidence of inflammatory peri-implant diseases
on implant failures is very low. This presentation will
assess the level of evidence and discuss the predictability
of currently recommended therapy.

Dr. Jean-Daniel Aye: Recent
advances in the Physiology and Pharmacology of pain
The large number of pain relieving drugs can cause perplexity
about the reliability of these products. A new approach
is required in view of the recent advances in physiology
and pharmacology of pain. The physiology of local anesthetic,
biological rhythms, chrono-pharmacology and the rational
for the use of non steroid anti-inflammatory drug will
be presented as well as the prevention of post operative
pain.

Dr. David Glynn: History of
the European Section of the I.C.D
Presentation outlining some of the history of the college
and how the European Section was formed, following an
informal meeting in Amsterdam in 1955 where it was decided
to hold the inaugural meeting in London in 1956; with
some historic photographs.
