📖 “Fluoride in Modern Dentistry: Redefining Its Role in Prevention and Management Strategies for Dental Dard Tissue Pathologies.”-Prof. Vo Truong Nhu Ngoc | VIDEC 2026
🦷 Fluoride: What Needs Updating Is Not Fluoride Itself, but How We Use It in Clinical Practice Fluoride has long been recognized as the cornerstone of caries prevention. In contemporary dentistry, however, its role has evolved far beyond preventing dental caries, becoming a central therapeutic tool in the prevention and management of a wide range...
📚 “Pericardium Membrane in Guided Bone Regeneration: From Routine Clinical Practice to Complex Bone Augmentation Procedures.” – Dr. Silvio Mario Meloni | VIDEC 2026
🦴 Pericardium Membrane in Guided Bone Regeneration: From Routine Clinical Practice to Complex Bone Augmentation Procedures Barrier membrane selection is one of the key determinants of successful Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR). Beyond supporting bone regeneration, the choice of membrane directly influences graft stability, wound healing, complication rates, and the long-term predictability of treatment outcomes. At...
📖 “Management of Oral Potentially Malignant Disorders and Early-Stage Oral Cancer” – Dr. Takanori Eguchi | VIDEC 2026
🔬EARLY DETECTION: THE MOST CRITICAL FACTOR IN THE MANAGEMENT OF ORAL CANCER Advanced oral cancer often results in significant functional and aesthetic impairment, affecting eating, speech, and overall quality of life – even after successful treatment. In contrast, when detected at an early stage, oral cancer can often be managed with surgery alone, avoiding chemotherapy...
🔐 “Plaque-induced Peri-implantitis: An ancient problem with new dimensions.” – Prof. Nikos Mattheos | VIDEC 2026
🦷 What determines the long-term success of a dental implant? Today, the answer extends far beyond implant design or surgical technique. Emerging evidence shows that dental implants are biologically active systems, continuously interacting with the peri-implant tissues, the oral microbiome, and the host. Long-term clinical success depends on maintaining this delicate symbiosis. Once this balance...
📍 “Biofilm Management in Restorative Dentistry.” – Prof. Ngo Chi Hien | VIDEC 2026
🦷 What distinguishes contemporary caries management from traditional restorative dentistry? The answer lies not simply in new restorative materials or techniques, but in a fundamental shift toward biologically driven care, where Minimal Intervention Dentistry (MI) has become the guiding philosophy for modern caries management. At VIDEC 2026, Prof. Ngo Chi Hien, an internationally recognized expert...
VIDEC 2026 – Biofilm in Health and Disease: From Dysbiosis to Data- Driven Diagnostics
🧬 Biofilms are no longer viewed simply as dental plaque. Emerging evidence has transformed our understanding of oral biofilms into dynamic, host-modulated ecosystems, where dysbiosis plays a central role in the initiation and progression of oral diseases. At VIDEC 2026, Prof. Lakshman “Sam” Samaranayake will present the lecture: ⛳ “Biofilm in Health and Disease: From...
VIDEC 2026 – Geriatric Dentistry in the Era of Population Aging: Are We Ready for the Future?
🦷 Geriatric Dentistry in the Era of Population Aging: Are We Ready for the Future? As life expectancy continues to rise, dentistry faces a new challenge – not only preserving natural teeth, but also maintaining the ability to eat, speak, and enjoy a better quality of life throughout older age. Japan, one of the world’s...
“AI applications in aesthetic dentistry” at VIDEC 2026, presented by Dr. Ding-Han Wan & Dr. Hsuan Chen
🧠 Is the future of aesthetic dentistry simply about buying software – or understanding how it’s built? That is the opening question of the Keynote Lecture: “AI applications in aesthetic dentistry” at VIDEC 2026, presented by Dr. Ding-Han Wang, Associate Professor at National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (Taiwan) and a leading researcher in dental...
