Abstract:
Periodontal-Restorative issues are common problems when planning treatment for patients. The decision to retain or extract teeth due to periodontal reasons may affect patient choices or may deter the clinician from completing an ideal treatment plan. The aim of this workshop is to enhance the skills of the clinician in decision making, especially when teeth are periodontally involved. Cases will be assigned to participants where a discussion of the cases will bring about ideal and alternative treatment plans.
