30th Annual
Marvin Goldstein Lecture Series

"Biological and Clinical Factors
for Ultimate Esthetics around Implants" 


April 25, 2008

Guest Lecturer: Dennis P. Tarnow, DDS

Guest Lecturer

Dr. Dennis P. Tarnow, Professor and Chairman of the New York University College of Dentistry’s Arthur Ashman Department of Implant Dentistry, earned his dental degree from New York University. He completed postdoctoral studies in periodontics and prosthodontics, along with a rotating dental internship at Brookdale Hospital in Brooklyn, N.Y. He served as chief resident of the Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center in New York City in 1975.

Dr. Tarnow, who also is an associate professor of Periodontics and Prosthodontics, is a member of Omicron Kappa Upsilon, the American Academy of Periodontology, the Greater New York Academy of Prosthodontics, the American Academy of Esthetic Dentistry, the American Prosthodontic Society, the American College of Prosthodontists, the Academy of Osseointegration and the American Dental Association. 

He received the American Academy of Periodontology’s 1993 and 1996 Special Citation Awards, the 1996 Isador Hirschfield Memorial Award from the Northeastern Society of Periodontists, the 1997 New York University College of Dentistry Alumni Achievement Award and Omicron Kappa Upsilon’s 1998 State of the Art Lecturer Award.

Purpose

Ultimate esthetics requires an interdisciplinary clinical and biological approach to treating patients. This presentation will focus on fine tuning our cases so that facial tissues and interproximal papillae will look their best and remain healthy for years to come. Restorative dentistry, periodontal plastic surgery,orthodontics and socket preservation will be discussed.

Objectives

At the conclusion of this program, participants will be able:

  • To understand when the interdental papilla is present or missing between teeth and implants
  • To understand the new implant designs and surfaces
  • To understand the proper incision designs to maximize esthetics around implants.
  • To understand the potential advantages and disadvantages of immediate socket placement along with immediate restoration
  • To understand how to perform socket preservation techniques
  • The pros and cons of new zirconium abutments and when they should be placed for ultimate esthetic outcomes.

About The Marvin Goldstein Lecture Series
Dr. Marvin Goldstein
Dr. Marvin Goldstein was a noted Atlanta orthodontist and      philanthropist who for 20 years sponsored an internationally known dental clinician to lecture at the Medical College of Georgia School of Dentistry. Dr. Goldstein believed the integrity of the dental profession could best be preserved by promoting clinical excellence and sharing information with colleagues. Following his death in 1997, Mrs. Rita (Goldstein) Wolfson arranged to perpetuate her husband’s contributions to the dental profession through a gift to MCG that will continue to support the Annual Goldstein Lectureship. MCG and the dental profession continue to be served through the generosity of the Goldstein family.

Target Audience
This program is designed for dentists and auxiliaries
