The American Laser Study Club - CE Programs

Over the last 40 years, lasers have become an important tool in both dentistry and medicine. The most frequently mentioned advantages of using dental lasers include improved healing, precision in surgery, and a generally bloodless field. The FDA has cleared several different laser wavelengths for use in dentistry.
It is imperative that the surgeon understand how to choose the appropriate parameters (i.e., wavelength, power, time, and beam spot size) to achieve the desired results with minimum collateral damage to the tissue.
​
The laser dentistry continuing education courses listed below help train dentists, oral surgeons, and other related medical professionals about the most popular dental laser wavelengths, physics of laser surgery, means of controlling a laser effect on tissue, and techniques of dental laser use.

ROBYN MERKEL-WALSH -2 Day WORKSHOP: 
The Functional *REMEDIATION* of TOTs (Tethered Oral Tissues)

This course explores the functional assessment of TOTs and reviews current well-respected assessment tools which describe structure.  With these tools, Lori and Robyn have developed the Merkel-Walsh & Overland TOTs Protocol which looks at structure, oral motor function, pre-feeding, feeding and speech. Participants will learn to use this tool to identify the possible need for a TOTs referral, and the functional impact this diagnosis may have on feeding and speech. Their unique style of “task analysis” is a practical strategy for assessment that is immediately carried over into developing a treatment program for neuro-muscular re-education. ​

Dr. Bill Hang - Orthotropics
​Mini-Residency

Dr. Hang teaches an Orthotropics® mini-residency for orthodontists and general dentists from around the world. Residents learn how to optimize facial development in young children during four 2-day sessions held over the course of one year.

​William M Hang DDS MSD  has committed his career to advancing a paradigm of thinking in orthodontics that rejects traditional retractive techniques in patients of all ages.
His Face Focused® treatment techniques are designed to: develop the jaws forward, never backward; create better facial balance & more pleasing facial appearance; protect and/or expand the airway; and produce broad smiles that are complete to the corners of the mouth. When it comes to orthodontics Dr. Hang does not believe that one treatment can fit every patient. Over the years, experience has taught him that the easier way to treat is not always the best way to treat. But, he always strives to keep treatment times shorter rather than longer. His goals are: to educate as many patients, parents and professionals about the benefits of the Face Focused® Philosophy as possible; to continue to develop treatments based on Face Focused® principles for patients of all ages; and to teach these methods to other dentists and orthodontists worldwide through seminars, workshops and mini-residencies. The 3 areas of expertise for which he is best known are…
