About This Event
The 5th Update in Dentistry Symposium will focus not only on innovative and contemporary ways of managing routine and complex dental problems, but also on stressful and difficult situations many clinicians have been or are experiencing – burnout. Experts from the Department of Dentistry at Mount Sinai Hospital will cover an eclectic mixture of topics that include restorative, endodontic, surgical and periodontal techniques, management of patients with special needs, and clinician wellness. Through active participation in lectures and interactive workshops dentists, dental specialists, dental specialty residents and dental hygienists will be introduced to new perspectives and creative ideas, while still adhering to basic and important treatment principles that are integral to excellence in patient care.
