International Conference on

Dental Treatment

his evidence-based lecture presents a broad overview

of contemporary literature and clinical and scientific

experience in acute and chronic endodontic pain management.

Comprehensive understanding of different pain mechanisms

provides an ultimate way for managing dental pain emergencies

and post-operative conditions. The latest information on

pharmacological and technological approaches will be provided

to help clinicians with successful management of different types

of endodontic emergencies. What is the best time for treatment

of irreversible pulpitis? Can we predict which patients are more

likely to experience pain after an endodontic therapy? What

doesn’t work for post-op pain? What are genetic determinants

of pain? What is a personalized medicine concept and how to

apply it in dentistry? At the conclusion, participants should be

able to: discuss different pain mechanisms; discuss the genetic

determinants of pain and; apply a personalized medicine concept

in dentistry.
