I Can’t Take All This Science! Presenter: Dr. Brian Novy CE Supporter: GC America Release Date: 2/28/24 Expiration Date: 2/28/27 CE Credits: 1 CEU (Self-Study) View Full Description »

Remineralization used to be as simple as "put some fluoride on it!" But is the array of products available today claiming “remineralization” pushing the limits of oral healthcare? In a clinical world of dry mouth and acidic beverages, perhaps we’re putting too much faith in an antiquated understanding of what happens on the surface of a tooth. The science of reversing demineralization can be summarized easily, but clinicians would be wise to realize it takes more than an electronegative anion to rebuild the strongest biological substance on earth. How far can we push chemistry before accepting biochemistry makes more sense, and what could go horribly wrong?

The discussion will conclude with a discussion of how to bill insurance companies for both the biopsy and for the pathology report.
