2023 IADR/LAR General Session with WCPD
The 2023 IADR/LAR General Session & Exhibition with WCPD provided dental, oral, and craniofacial health scientists with the opportunity to present, discuss, and critique their latest and most cutting-edge research at a 100% in-person gathering in Bogotá, Colombia. The meeting was attended by 1,667 individuals from 76 countries.The recordings in this library from the meeting are a selection of the science that was presented at the General Session. These recordings give you the opportunity to participate in the meeting and hear from leading researchers. The recordings include IADR Distinguished Lecture Series speakers and symposia from a collection of scientific groups and networks.
This session can be purchased as part of the full meeting recordings within the product bundles

Session Description
Better health, less treatment discomfort, more conservative treatment, and improved outcomes are goals we aim to achieve when treating our patients in healthcare.
Lasers and photonic devices are applied to all fields of biomedicine in the craniofacial region, ranging from their applications in preventive and restorative dentistry to early diagnostics and treatment of orofacial pathologies, and facial esthetics.
Better health comes with prevention. The early detection, diagnosis, and prediction of lesion activity, such as early carious lesions, periodontal disease, and oral cancer can lead to a more minimally invasive treatment strategy.
Today, sophisticated diagnostic photonic devices are available for transillumination or luminescence, which can help to detect disease with a high degree of accuracy. These tools, with high levels of magnification and observational capacity, have also the ability to guide clinicians in real time toward more preventive or minimally invasive treatment.
When the disease has already evolved, lasers will selectively remove only the affected tissues, maintaining what can be preserved, offering a more conservative approach than traditional tools.
Laser light can far reach areas that cannot be accessed easily with mechanical instruments in implantology, endodontics, and periodontics, allowing for more effective disinfection and the preservation of teeth that otherwise would have been condemned, due to lack of mechanical access.
Photochemistry complements our work with tissue bio-stimulation, leading to better tissue regeneration and bio-inhibition of pain, allowing us to increase the standard of care.
This change in clinical outcome is only possible due to photonic technology, which has allowed us to perform prevention and selective minimally orofacial care.
Basic knowledge and skills, with this technology, however, will still define the efficiency and the success of the clinical outcome.
This presentation will explore the currently available technologies relevant to all areas of craniofacial medicine.

Learning Objectives
- Changes in the attitude and approach of the learner to the solution of dental problems and corrections of outdated knowledge; by increasing awareness of the extended applications and changes in outcome that photonic devices provide to orofacial care in comparison with conventional techniques.
- Provision of new knowledge in the specific area of photo-biomedicine, where participants will learn how technologies and photonic energy levels differ in their selection of choice for their application in different areas of orofacial care.
- Alteration in the habits of the learner where participants will acquire an understanding of the use of high and low photonic energy utilization in dentistry.
