Our membership today encompasses the entire country. Our annual meeting is a place where we share knowledge and add to our expertise. This gathering is an opportunity to share news, ideas, concerns and innovations. While enjoying each other’s company! The theme of this year’s meeting, Special Care for a Lifetime, promises to address the challenges we see on a daily basis. Our expert speakers will cover a variety of topics that include: Pharmacology, Prevention, Team Treatment, the Complex Geriatric Patient, Dementia, Mental Illness and Forensics.

Synopsis, Bio and Speaker Information
*All programs are in the Franklin Room unless otherwise indicated
Thursday, October 31st 2013 George Martinez 1:15 PM-3:15 PM The Power of Prevention About the Speaker: George J. Martinez is currently a Regional Preventive Specialist for 3M ESPE with over 32 years of Preventive Dentistry experience. His lectures specialize on simplifying CaMBRA; risk assessment, treatment protocols, the latest in technology for fighting oral disease and coaching needs of the clinicians. About the program: Caries Management by Risk Assessment, or CAMBRA, represents a shift from simply treating caries to proactive prevention and treatment. Through learning about CAMBRA, and implementing the recommendations and protocols, dental clinicians have a valuable opportunity to help patients take charge of their oral health. Upon completion of this course, participants will learn: • to evaluate a patient’s disease indicators, risk factors and protective factors to determine
their level of caries risk. • to understand accepted clinical guidelines and treatment options to help patients manage
existing oral health issues based on their level of risk. • to understand how risk assessment can help to identify the appropriate treatment plan depending on the patient’s risk level.
Evan Spivack, DDS 4:00 PM-5:00 PM The Complex Geriatric Patient; Decision Making Dilemmas About the Speaker: Dr. Evan Spivack graduated from the University of Maryland dental school and completed general practice residency training at St. Barnabas Hospital in the Bronx and a fellowship in special care dentistry at Helen Hayes Hospital in West Haverstraw, NY. Currently a professor and acting director of the Special Care Treatment Center at the Rutgers School of Dental Medicine, Dr. Spivack has devoted his career to both direct patient care and to the education of future dentists in the provision of dental care to the full spectrum of the special needs population. About the Program: Patients with special needs often provide dentists with decision-making dilemmas, but perhaps the most difficult situations arise when caring for the complex geriatric patient. This case-based presentation will introduce several tools that can assist in decision making and help participants develop an “outside the box” approach to geriatric patient care. Upon completion of this course, participants will: • recognize problems that commonly occur in assessing complex geriatric patients • be able to develop dental treatment plans specifically addressing the needs of these complex patients • have knowledge of several decision-making tools used in assessing complex patients with special needs

He is a contributor to several dental professional journals, with columns appearing regularly in AGD Impact and RDH Magazine. In addition, Tom currently serves as the Subject Matter Expert for Mosby’s Dental Drug Reference. About the Program: This program will provide participants with an update and overview of the most frequently prescribed FDA-approved medications for the past year. Throughout the program, special emphasis will be given to those medications whose actions, side effects, or interactions with other medications may impact dental therapy. Upon successful completion of this program, participants will be able to: • Identify the most frequently prescribed FDA-approved medications for the past year. • Review the basic mechanism of action, principle therapeutic indications, and potential adverse reactions and drug interactions of these medications. • Discuss the clinical dental considerations of these medications and their potential impact on dental therapy. Burt Nussbaum DDS 11:00 PM-12:00 PM Team Treatment About the Speaker: Dr. Burton Nussbaum graduated from dental school in 1974. He then went on to Pediatric Dentistry graduating in 1976.

He joined the faculty and surgical staff of The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and the Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. This provided a sophisticated avenue for treatment of Special Needs Patients. He is a Clinical Professor at the University of Pennsylvania School of Dentistry a well as the Jefferson Medical School. About the Program: This presentation will deal with the treatment of medically complex dental patients in a coordinated “team” approach versus a singular approach. It will define the types of providers necessary to treat dental patients with medical and behavioral issues and help the provider decide which approach is best for each particular patient. After completion of the course, participants will be able to:
• Define and describe the different singular practitioners involved with the dental care of the medically/ behaviorally complex dental patient
• Define and describe what constitutes team care • Decide which patients can be treated in an office or clinic setting and
which patients need the O.R. • Locate an existing team or create one of their own

About SAID… Special Care Advocates In Dentistry SAID is a benevolent group of dental professionals whose mission is to improve the oral health of people with disabilities through service, education, and advocacy.
SAID was founded in 1966 by Dr. Gerald Bensberg, Director of the NIMH-supported Attendant Training Project. Dr. Bensberg invited dental professionals who served in facilities for people with cognitive challenges in 15 southern states to participate in a seminar to consider ways of delivering better dental care to people with developmental disabilities. The original seminar was attended by 23 institutional dentists, one dental hygienist, two nurses, and a pediatrician. These attendees represented 26 institutions in 13 southern states.
Since 1966, SAID has grown in scope and membership, and today includes over 200 professionals whose patients reside both in facilities and in the community. The scope of SAID now includes people with intellectual disabilities as well as those with mental illness. While SAID still has its southern heritage, members now hail from all regions of the country and Canada. During the 2010 business meeting the SAID tagline was officially changed to “Special Care Advocates in Dentistry” because the original “Southern Association of Institutional Dentists” no longer represented the diversity of the of the organization’s membership .What has NOT changed is the original vision of improving the oral health of people with disabilities through service, education, and advocacy. We hope you will join us this year at our Annual Seminar in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to hear on a wide variety of presentations as well as to meet others who share your dedication and focus Why become a Special Care Advocates in Dentistry Member? Because of what we do... • Annual Session offers superior continuing education for dental professionals caring for patients with disabilities. • Annual literature review highlights the latest research for the Special Care Dental professional. • SAID modules provide instruction for the dental professional caring for at-risk populations. • SAID website provides a central forum where members can ex- change ideas on current issues. • Camaraderie with other professionals with similar backgrounds & problems. • SAID website provides a hub where members can access real-time updates in special care dentistry. • Membership list: SAID members are themselves resources for those who advocate for at-risk patient populations. Because we care... • About at risk patients with special needs • About the quality of dental care provided to patients with special needs • About educating those who pro- vide daily oral care to these special patients • About you the dental care provider who cares for these vulnerable patients
