A must for your professional reference library!
Oral Surgery for the General Dentist was conceived and written specifically for the
general dental practitioner. Dental students are often inadequately trained in, and
exposed to, oral surgery techniques while in school. This clinical, step-by-step
manual simplifies and demystifies general, everyday oral surgical procedures and
provides the knowledge needed to perform these procedures with competency.
“Finally, a no-nonsense manual specifically written for the general dentist that actually teaches good ‘bread and butter’ general oral surgery in a step-by-step
fashion accompanied by numerous color photographs.”
-Dr. Charles Balaban, DDS, FADI
Oral Surgical Videos for the General Dentist is an exclusive DVD devoted to teaching the General Dentist numerous surgical procedures through the use of live videos. The videos will simplify and demystify oral surgery for the busy G.P. It is a must for dentists performing oral surgery in their practice. You can’t afford to be without it. Dental Students will benefit immensely from this presentation. You will be given the “Practical Clinical Facts”: and nothing but the facts. This is a “One of a Kind” surgical gem!

components of an effective implant system and detail the restorative process. Biological reasons for
essential features in an implant system will be discussed, especially in regards to the potential for
success in the anterior esthetic zone. Immediate implant placement and provisionalization, along with
the ideal emergency profile prior to final impressions will be presented. Furthermore, the restorative process for dental implants will be demystified, from selecting an appropriate abutment to important
considerations in single and multiple tooth restorations and overdenture attachments. In the handson
portion of the program, attendees will familiarize themselves with an implant prosthetic kit while

Dr. Alain Méthot
Dr. Alain Méthot graduated in 1981 from the University of Montreal. To this day he continues his education in everything that is avant-gardist. He is on a constant lookout for t he newest trends, especially in esthetics. All we can say is that Dr. Méthot is an innovator in his own right. In the process of his continuing education, he attended prestigious school like Pankey Institute and LVI. He also did a master degree in masticatory system and occlusion in Austria with Professor Rudolf Slavicek. In his grand desire to communicate his passion, he decides to teach esthetic dentistry and dental adhesion, and founds the St-Pierre Academy in 1999 with 5 of his colleagues. In January 2005, the creation of Dental GPS sees the day. Dr. Méthot inverts a new digital protocol in esthetic dentistry who not only does dental simulation but also diagnostic virtual wax-up. The software serves as a laboratory prescription to guide the dental team to perform an on-screen simulated smile. In other words, it is the technology that makes us visualize the desired smile and allows us to manifest it on stone models in such a preceise way even before executing it on a patient itself. The technology also incorporates itself in 3D systems, which will allow the industry to make a giant step forward in esthetic dentistry.

Patient-Centered Design of Anterior Esthetic Restorations
The art and science of creating predicable porcelain restorations of teeth can be very rewarding. There are, however, significant challenges that have to be identified and dealt with or serious failure can occur. When could you consider ‘prepless’ veneers versus regular veneers? This program will discuss a patient-centered protocol to decide just what preparation design would be appropriate for that patient in your chair right now. This lecture will review fundamentals of smile design, tooth preparation, provisionalization, lab communication and cementation. Learning Objectives:
• Diagnose and choose the best esthetic restoration for your patient
• Design appropriate preparation reduction that will help ensure success
• Review of current bonding protocols
