Sessions/Tracks

Track 1: Current concepts in Oral Health

Dentistry continues to change, particularly because of the advances in clinical dentistry, materials and technology. These changes offer opportunities for both patients and dental practices alike. Now patients can benefit from the advances in Clinical dentistry and dental practices can benefit from the opportunity to move their business in a forward direction. Dental practices need to constantly look at the available options. Dentists can now offer patients advanced choices like Laser dentistry, dentistry, Digital and Implant dentistry.  I find that dentists who are taking advanced clinical courses and utilizing technology are re-energized and enjoying dentistry more than ever before.

 

Track 2: Regulatory and Ethical Issues in Dentistry

Ethics affect virtually every decision made in a dental office, encompassing activities of both judging and choosing. Ethics affect relationships with patients, the public, office staff, and other professionals. Without a solid ethical foundation, you simply cannot be a true professional. The dentist must be aware of patients’ legitimate needs for prescription drugs.

 

Track 3: Dental Hygiene and Oral Health

Dental Hygiene is a method of caring the mouth and teeth clean to prevent dental problems, most commonly, gingivitis, dental cavities, bad breath and periodontal (gum) diseases. Teeth cleaning mean the removal of dental plaque and tartar from teeth to prevent cavities, gum disease, gingivitis and tooth decay. Poor hygiene of mouth, particularly gum disease increases the risk of heart stroke, uncontrolled diabetes and preterm labor. Vincent infection is a terrible disease of the mouth characterized by gray ulceration of the mucous membrane, bleeding of gums, foul odour to the breath etc.

 

Track 4: Dental Research and Practice Management

This topic deals with ongoing research in Dentistry that covers an evaluation, diagnosing, treatment and prevention of different kinds of diseases and conditions of the soft and hard tissues of the jaw, oral cavity, maxillofacial area and adjacent and associated structures and its impact on the human body. The major focus of researches is on treating different dental problems through different analytical procedures, tests and techniques.

 

Track 5: Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery is the treatment of issues related to hard and soft tissues of face, mouth and jaws.  Maxillofacial surgeons set a strong base for cosmetic and restorative dental work which includes placing of dental implants, providing medication for obstructive sleep apnea, facial pain and infection, biopsies, removal of lesions, diagnosis and treatment of some oral cancers. It includes treatment of facial injuries, head and neck cancers, salivary gland diseases, facial disproportion, facial pain, impacted teeth, cysts and tumors of the jaws along with numerous problems affecting the oral mucosa like mouth ulcers and infections.

 

Track 6: Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics

Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics is the specialty of dentistry that focuses on the alignment of the teeth and the dental arches: the maxilla and the mandible. This deals with the problems of teeth that are crowded or too far apart, teeth that meet abnormally or don’t meet at all, and teeth that stick out, and mismatched jaws. Orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics, is previously called as orthodontia, is a field of dentistry that concerned with the diagnosing, preventing and correction of malpositioned teeth and jaws. For the younger patients, the jaw bones are still forming, it is easier to control bone growth and tooth movement. However for the elder patients this process involves surgery.

 

Track 7: Periodontics and Preventive Dentistry

Periodontics and Preventive Dentistry focuses mostly on prevention, diagnosing and treating the diseases of gum and its periodontal tissues that results in attachment loss and destruction of alveolar bone. Periodontal treatments include Tartar (calculus) and plaque removal beneath the gums, Medication and Surgery. Periodontics is first treated by special cleaning called “Periodontal cleaning” along with some medications to remove the plaque and tartar deposits. If it doesn’t cured then goes to surgery method which allows dentists to access areas under gums and roots where the tartar and plaque is accumulated. This reduces the pockets and repair caused by progressing disease.

 

Track 8: Restorative Dentistry and Endodontics

Restorative dentistry deals with diagnosing and managing the diseases of teeth, its supporting structures and the healing of the dentition to practical and inventive requirements of the individual. It encompasses the dental specialties of endodontics, periodontics, prosthodontics and its foundation is based upon how these interact in cases where composite care is needed.  The ultimate outcome of dental cavities is resolved by the balance between pathological factors that leads to demineralization and protective factors that leads to remineralization.

Endodontic is the specialty of dentistry concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of the dental pulp along with associated periradicular conditions. Endodontic treatment removes the diseased pulp, cleans and shapes the root canal system, disinfect the contaminated root canals, and then fill the root canal system to block re-infection and stimulate periradicular healing.

 

Track 9: Preventive & Operative dentistry

Preventive dentistry is the practice of caring for one's teeth to keep them healthy. This helps to avoid cavities, gum disease, enamel wear, and more. Preventive dentistry prevents people from developing dental problems later on. Cavities, gingivitis, enamel loss, and periodontitis can all be avoided or mitigated with proper dental care. Operative dentistry concerned with restoration of parts of the teeth that are defective as a result of disease, trauma, or abnormal development to a state of normal function, health, and esthetics.

 

Track 10: Prosthodontics and Cosmetic Dentistry

Prosthodontics is one among the nine dental specialties that is perceived by the American Dental Association (ADA). Dental professionals in the field of prosthodontics (prosthodontists) offer the latest sequencing treatment, maintenance and therapeutic treatment.

Cosmetic Dentistry improves the presence of an individual's teeth, gums and grin. It essentially centers on progress dental feel in shading, position, shape, size, arrangement and in general grin appearance. The medicines can be utilized to fix teeth brightening, full mouth recreation and grin makeover. Corrective medicines incorporate crowns, spans, fillings, dentures, dental inserts, holding, facade and tooth brightening.

 

Track 11: Digital Dentistry and 3D Imaging (CAD/CAM)

Digital Dentistry denotes to the use of dental skills or devices to carry out dental procedures rather than using mechanical or electrical tools. It can be used to make carrying out dental procedures more efficient than using mechanical tools. 3D Imaging  is one of the most major tools for orthodontists to evaluate and record size and form of craniofacial structures. Orthodontists regularly use 2-dimensional (2D) static imaging procedures, but deepness of structures cannot be acquired and restricted with 2D imaging. In 3D diagnostic imaging, a series of anatomical records is gathered using certain technical equipment, processed by a computer and later presented on a 2D monitor to present the illusion of deepness.

 

Track 12: Geriatric Dentistry, Aging and Palliative Care

Geriatric dentistry deals with the older adults dental care which involves diagnosing, preventing, managing and treating of problems associated with age related diseases.  Different problems include gastrointestinal, renal, cardiovascular, respiratory, and immune systems often decrease in efficiency, and these impacts upon the entire body, including oral health. The common oral changes in the aged people are tooth loss, dental caries, periodontitis, dry mouth and oral cancer.  Palliative care comes into play when the patient’s disease is not responding to the treatment. Maintaining proper oral hygiene will be a difficult task for sick and critical condition patients, hence the main goal of dentist in palliative team should focus on oral comfort which comprise maintenance of oral hygiene, wipe out painful conditions like mucositis, infectious diseases, and ulcerative conditions of oral cavity.

 

Track 13: Nano dentistry, nanomaterial and Nanotechnology

Nanotechnology has a potential to bring enormous changes in the field of Dentistry. Nano materials are those whose size is <10nm.

 

• Local Nanoanaesthesia: A colloidal suspension includes millions of dental Nano robots would be used to induce local anesthesia. It reduces apprehension and is fast and totally reversible.
• Hypersensitivity cure:  Nano robots use local organic materials which could result in effective blockage of particular tubules, resulting in rapid and stable treatment.
• Tooth Repositioning: periodontal tissues like the gingiva, periodontal aligament, cementum and alveolar bone, may be directed by orthodontic Nano robots leads to swift and pain free corrective movements.
• Dentifrobots: Mouthwashes and Tooth pastes contain dentifrobots that would clean all gingival surfaces regularly. They would breakdown all the harmful materials into harmless substances.
• Nano therapeutics: Nanotechnology will eliminate the solubility problems, lead to a reduction in the dosage of drug and reduce the adverse effects.
• Diagnosing oral cancer: Nano scale cantilevers, in which elastic beams used to attach with cancer linked molecules

Track 14: Dental Sleep Medicine and Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Dental sleep medicine focuses on the use of oral appliances to treat sleep-disordered breathing, includes snoring and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). These customized sleep apnea oral appliances are made by dentists using a plastic-like mold according to the specific shape of the patient’s mouth and teeth. They not only work on against the sleep apnea but also effective stop snoring. Sleep apnea is a potentially serious disorder in which breathing starts and stops repeatedly.

 

Track 15: Dental Anesthesiology and Pain Management

Dental Anesthesiology we used earlier is nitrogen oxide and ether to control the pain of tooth. This allows millions of patients to undergo painless surgery, but not all.  Dental Anesthesiology includes:

Local Anesthesia: The most local anesthesia is lidocaine. Its half-life in the body is about 1.5 to 2hrs. This controls bleeding in the tissue during procedures

Maxillary Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is deposited at the buccal (cheek) side of the maxillary alveolus which can diffuse through the thin cortical plate of the maxilla, then further into the pulp of the tooth in order to get dental anesthesia effect.

Mandibular Anesthesia: The technique to be used is chosen based on the patient’s age and tooth to be anaesthetized. Regional block or Infiltration technique is used here.

Market analysis

India Dental Care Market Executive Summary

India's dental care market was valued at $653 Mn in 2022 and is estimated to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.40% from 2022 to 2030 and will reach $1339 Mn in 2030. India's economy has undergone a change from a mixed planned economy to a mixed middle-income emerging social market economy with significant state intervention in key industries. By nominal GDP, it is the fifth-largest economy in the world, and by purchasing power parity, it is the third-largest.

India has 1,80,000 registered dental graduates, and 80,000 are actively practicing dentists. 99% of the dental market in India is private. Over 90% of dentists work in and around major cities. IDA is dedicated to improving dental health because it is crucial to overall health and well-being. The capacity to eat and drink, swallow, retain sufficient nutrition, smile, and communicate are among the most fundamental human requirements that can be impacted by poor oral health, untreated oral diseases, and disorders. A positive patient experience is achieved through the development and testing of dental products and materials by the IDA (Indian Dental Association) using cutting-edge research techniques. With this in mind, the association created a useful safety standard for consumer dental care products called "the IDA Seal of Acceptance”. Through its publications on public health and instructional literature, the group also works to raise public awareness of oral health issues.

Market Growth Drivers

One of the major contributing factors to this growth of the Indian dental care Market is the rising knowledge and awareness among individuals regarding dental aids and various treatments that aim to improve personal health and hygiene, Cosmetic whitening products, which are a rarity in past are now being actively purchased and administered. Personalization of the oral care market is a major contributing factor to the growth of the market.

The elderly population is at high risk of developing various oral diseases. According to government estimates, more than 90% of the adult population is affected by periodontal disease. Brushing and flossing with fluoride-containing toothpaste, using mouthwash, and regular dental visits are some of the oral care tips for seniors. Thus, the demand for oral care products is expected to increase from this group of the population as well.

India is one of the countries consuming maximum tobacco, a leading cause of oral cancer and the problem has only aggravated in the recent past. India has the highest number of oral cancers in the world with 75,000 to 80,000 new cases every year. All forms of chewing tobacco sold in small pouches across the country are a serious health hazard as they are targeted at the youth and children.

Dental caries (tooth decay) is the most common chronic childhood disease – 5 times more common than asthma and 7 times more common than hay fever. Over 80% under 15-year have caries and 40% suffer from malocclusion. There are striking disparities in dental disease by income. Poor children suffer twice as much dental caries as their more affluent peers and their disease is more likely to be untreated. These poor-non-poor differences continue into adolescence.

Dental implants hold the majority share at 20.12% of the Indian dental service market while cosmetic dentistry is the fastest-growing segment. Periodontics and laser dentistry are also taking a leap in this industry with a substantial growth rate.

Market Restraints

The oral care/oral hygiene market is highly competitive, with a growing number of players operating at the regional level. Local/regional players offer oral care products at discounted prices as compared to the global players and sell their products through e-commerce channels at low prices, creating pricing pressure on global players.

Regular dental care requires routine cleaning of the teeth after every meal creates hassles in terms of maintaining dental hygiene. Dental bridges can damage the bone surrounding the previous teeth, thus weakening the bone structure which significantly increases the chances of accumulation of dental plaque around the teeth and, in turn, increases the risk of tooth decay and associated gum diseases. Dental bridges also require grinding of the surrounding teeth to prepare the pontic. Grinding reduces teeth strength and increases the chances of dental bridge failure, resulting in frequent replacement.

Competitive Landscape

Key Players

• Clove Dental
• 3M
• Dentsply Sirona
• GE Healthcare

Healthcare Policies and Regulatory Landscape

Policy: National Oral Health Program and the new norms accepted by NHSRC of Govt. of India extend dental health care through primary health centers and health & wellness centers being established around the country.

Public sector insurance like Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojna (RSBY), Central Government Health Scheme, and Employees’ State Insurance also provides coverage for a limited number of oral health procedures.

Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (PM-JAY) holds promise to further increase the percentage of the population covered by public insurance for health care. It will also aim to promote oral health economic research at national and regional levels since information in this area is incomplete and often disaggregated.

National Health policy commits to providing affordable, safe, and quality oral health care services at all health facilities

Regulatory landscape

1. Regulation of dental clinical establishments: This policy will advocate the facilitation of dental clinic establishment particularly in rural and under-served areas
2. Regulation of dental equipment, Instruments, and Materials: The National Oral Health policy recommends supporting and strengthening all existing and future regulations related to medical/ dental devices and dental materials
3. Regulation of Commercial Determinants of Oral Health Research, Policy, and Practice: It aims to create a coherent and comprehensive regulation and legislative framework to regulate the commercial determinants to tackle the risk factors of oral health shared with a range of other non-communicable diseases (NCDs)
