LAS VEGAS, Nev., USA: The American Association of Orthodontists will host its 2014 Winter Conference from Feb. 7 to 9 at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. The focus of the event will be “Adult Treatment: A Clinical Conference for Orthodontists and Restorative Dentists.” AAO members are encouraged to invite restorative dentistry colleagues to attend and join the exploration of how the specialties can collaborate to produce outstanding clinical results.

The team aspect of the event is just the beginning, according to organizers, as there will be a comprehensive set of presentations from recognized clinical experts, covering topics ranging from new treatments in adult esthetics to sleep apnea to breakthrough orthodontic and restorative materials as well as computer-assisted diagnostics and treatment.

Attendees will hear perspectives about the clinical and medico-legal risks inherent in adult treatment, and an update on the most current considerations in the management of TMD. Methodologies to change the speed and quality of treatment through changes in patient physiology will be discussed with focus on both accelerated osteogenic orthodontics and vibratory stimulation of tooth movement, organizers said.

This AAO Winter Conference is dedicated to Dr. Vince Kokich. Kokich served as the AAO’s Winter Conference co-chair and worked to develop the scientific program prior to his passing.

This meeting is dedicated to Kokich in memory of his many contributions to dentistry and specifically to interdisciplinary treatment as featured in this program.

Registration is open and hotel reservations may be made at www.aaoinfo.org. Restorative dentists may also register at www.aaoinfo.org. Use the “Meetings & Events” section pull-down to access information about the conference and to register.
