2 Invitation from session planner, Dr. Steve Patterson: Continuing Dental Education & training opportunities that focus on the interests and needs of the public health workforce are limited and hard to find. Here in Alberta, a longstanding tradition exists at the University of Alberta, of providing quality training and learning opportunities designed to enhance the work and practice of dental public health professionals. Our last such training session was two years ago in Calgary. We invite you to participate in the 13 th Alberta Dental Public Health Training sessions, designed for improving the work of our dental public health workforce. These sessions designed at reasonable cost for the participants, are to be held this year in Edmonton, at the University of Alberta on May 8-9. This year features our keynote speaker, Dr. John Featherstone, Dean of the School of Dentistry, University of California, San Francisco, who is a world-renowned researcher on Caries Management by Risk Assessment (CAMBRA), as well as a group of other excellent presenters and topics. As a special support to members of the Canadian Association of Public Health Dentistry (CAPHD) we offer the early-bird registration to you. We hope to see all of you in Edmonton at the University of Alberta, on May 8-9 th as our ability to continue to offer such valuable training to dental public health depends on the ongoing support for these events!

7 Presentations: KEYNOTE PRESENTATION Caries Management by Risk Assessment In the Public Health Environment Dr. John Featherstone, Friday a.m. This presentation will summarize the science behind the caries balance concept, which is the key to caries management by risk assessment in clinical practice in the public health environment. If pathological factors prevail caries progresses. If protective factors prevail the caries process is halted or reversed. Pathological factors, including acidogenic bacteria, salivary dysfunction, and dietary carbohydrates are related to caries progression. Protective factors, which include antibacterials, salivary calcium, phosphate and proteins, salivary flow, and fluoride in saliva can balance, prevent or reverse dental caries. Remineralization is the natural repair mechanism for non-cavitated carious lesions. The course will describe the tools to implement caries management by risk assessment. Implementation in dental practice provides patients with genuine hope and success in the management of their oral health. Benefits to participants: 1. This course will provide the knowledge and skills to manage dental caries, especially in high-risk individuals who keep returning for further restorative work. 2. Participants will be able to put the knowledge they learn into practice on their next office day for the better oral health of their patients. Educational Objectives: 1. To understand the process of dental caries as an infectious and transmissible disease. 2. To learn about the pathological and protective factors related to caries initiation, progression and prevention. 3. To understand the principles of clinical intervention in the caries process, and how to put this into dental practice. OTHER PRESENTATIONS Why Oral Health is an Important Public Health Issue? Dr. Peter Cooney, Thursday a.m. This session will look at a public health approach regarding access to preventive, health promotion and treatment services for the general population and also vulnerable groups. The availability of successful preventive interventions and different treatment options is crucial to improve the oral health status of populations and individuals. We will discuss practical examples of how different approaches will allow for decisions which can be translated into health improvements. The importance of oral health in maintaining good general health will be discussed and similar risk factors which influence different oral and general diseases will be considered. Some examples in different areas of Canada will examine the importance of access to care in managing and providing service in dental programs. 7

8 COHI in the Alberta Region: Preventive Service Model for First Nations Dr. Steve Patterson, Thursday a.m. The Children s Oral Health Initiative is a federal prevention program designed for First Nations and Inuit populations. It is based on a population based approach to prevention in the Alberta Region. This presentation will consider the basis for this population approach, the current implementation of this program in the Alberta Region and consider opportunities for collaboration in the prevention of dental disease between federal and provincial programs. Provision of Preventive Dental Services Through Alberta s Oral Health Action Plan Dr. Luke Shwart, Thursday p.m. In 2010 AHS Executive approved the Oral Health Action Plan, which outlined evidencebased strategies to prevent dental disease among Albertans who are vulnerable and disadvantaged. This presentation provides an update, including facts and figures about the accomplishments, and a forecast of how the plan should evolve in the future. "Use of MediTech Oral Health Database for Dental Public Health Services" Tracey Hanson, Kristen Becker, Thursday p.m. This presentation will share learned lessons and initial field experiences related to the use of the Meditech Database for recording and documenting dental public health services in the South Zone of Alberta Health Services. This information will be shared by those who have had first-hand experience with this computer program. Pampalon Deprivation Scales: Informing the School Targeting Process Dr. Melissa Potestio, Dr. Steve Patterson, Thursday p.m. The Pampalon Index is based on the work describing a material and social deprivation index for health planning in Canada. This presentation will consider the concepts used in this index of deprivation, the methodological aspects of the index, how it has been used in Alberta Health Planning and recent work to apply this to targeting of dental public health services. Dental Infection Prevention and Control: Review of the Key Issues Dr. Ed Peters, Friday p.m. This presentation will present the principles and practical issues underlying infection prevention and control (IPC) in dentistry. The evidence basis and the significance of the precautionary principle in the evolution of dental IPC guidelines will be discussed. What s the Right Thing to Do: Is There a Different Ethic for Public Health? Dr. Steve Patterson, Friday p.m. Dental professionals are governed by both explicit and implicit codes of behaviour. Most professional organizations have written Codes of Ethics, which for the majority speak to the professional-patient relationship. Public health is a distinct specialty and unique mode of practice that calls for its own ethical behaviour. This presentation will investigate the expectations of public health ethics and how this intersects and sometimes conflicts with the traditional biomedical codes of ethics that deal with individual interactions. 8
