SUMMARY:North Suburban November Branch Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Tuesday\, November 11\, at Exmoor Country Club\, located at 700 Vine Ave. in Highland Park. \nMitra Sadrameli\, DMD\, will present Common Findings in CBCT Scans. Cocktails are at 6 p.m.\, followed by dinner and announcements at 7 p.m.\, and the program at 8 p.m. \nSpeaker Bio:\nMitra Sadrameli\, DMD\, MS\, received her DMD in 1992 from the University of Florida. Following graduation\, she completed the AEGD program at Columbia University College of Dental Medicine in New York City. She maintained a private practice in general dentistry until she returned to graduate school in 2009 to earn her certificate in Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology and master’s in science at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio (UTHSCSA). She is board-certified by the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology (ABOMR). \nAuthor of several articles and book chapters\, she has delivered presentations nationally and internationally on 3D imaging and its influence on personal patient care\, including diagnosis of pathology and surgical planning for dental implant site development. Her area of interest is the added value evaluation that imaging modalities such as CBCT provide to the clinical and surgical team. \nDr. Sadrameli currently serves on the review boards of multiple peer reviewed journals and has been involved with multiple dental committees: the American Academy of Oral Maxillofacial Radiology’s (AAOMR) Ad hoc Committee for Malpractice Insurance\, the AAOMR’s Strategic Planning Committee\, the AAOMR’s Radiology Practice Committee (as Co-Chair)\, and the ADA’s Commission for Continuing Education Provider Recognition (CCEPR). She currently serves on ADA’s Code Maintenance Committee. She maintains a full-time private practice in Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology in Chicago\, IL. \nProgram Description:\nA Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scan contains a significant amount of complex and anatomically related information. It not only reveals the presence or absence of disease\, but also the relationship between various anatomic structures to other structures\, or to a proposed surgical site. \nIn this presentation\, Dr. Sadrameli will provide strategies for systematically reviewing and evaluating CBCT scans for implant planning. Emphasis will be placed on understanding the indications and contraindications of CBCT imaging and providing the participants with pertinent\, usable information. \nLearning Objectives:\nThis presentation will provide participants with an opportunity to improve their 3D diagnostic skills. After this course\, they will: \n\nUnderstand the principles of CBCT to determine indications and contraindications of the technology.\nDevelop a systematic approach when evaluating CBCT scans.\nRecognize the multitude of CBCT applications\, with specific emphasis on implant site evaluation.\nAppreciate pre-implant site evaluation to ensure better\, predictable outcomes while minimizing mistakes or unintended consequences.\n\nCE Hours:\n2
