January - The month of lecture

It was an intense month in January with 3 lecture engagement. Kick starting the month was giving a lecture on teeth whitening and management of stain on teeth for College of General Dental Practitioners’ GP Series. It was a great opportunity to share with fellow dentists on my protocol on teeth whitening and how we can manage some of the more difficult cases. The other aspect that is interesting in the lecture would be sharing with them how using newer techniques, some of the brown or white stain on the teeth can be eliminated to give patients more uniform white teeth.

Then it was to Cambodia on the invite from Cambodia Dental Association to share on my pet topic, digital planning with laser dentistry to manage gummy smile. On top of that, I used the chance to share some of the smile makeover cases where patient’s smile is enhanced with porcelain veneers.

2 days later, it was back in Singapore to the Aesthetics Dentistry Society of Singapore’s Annual Forum where I was sharing with fellow colleagues on digital planning with laser dentistry to manage gummy smile.

The reason for repeating the lecture in the short span of 3 days in 2 countries is because both theme are on digital transition in aesthetics dentistry. It is latest trend in dentistry and glad to have the opportunity to share how with digital planning the outcome can be better forecasted and with laser dentistry the healing is more comfortable for patients.

Concluded my first overseas lecture 2 months ago. Had the opportunity to share on posterior composite and digital smile design (DSD).

Always great to see that dentists are passionate about learning.

It was an interesting experience for me as it was an overseas lecture. A good take away is to have a packing list! Almost forgot my mac adapter.

Now back to work to prepare for a 1.5day composite workshop to be held in March 2018!

Countdown to my overseas lecture

Countdown to my 1st overseas lecture. Literally via the causeway over the sea of Johor Straits into Johor.

I will be talking about Functional Posterior Composite: Updates on adhesive and layering and Anterior Esthetics Design.

The 2nd lecture will be an interesting one. Digital Smile Design is gaining popularity and I am glad to be exposed to it early in my career. During the lecture, I will sharing with the participants my experience in smile makeover with ceramic veneers and laser gum contouring. My pet topic has always been on management of gummy smile and I will definitely be covering how I combine digital technology with laser gum contouring and botulinum toxin.

To share the stage with Dr Dominic Leung, a very experienced and respected dentist (graduated in 1975), I must say the honour is mine to be invited to Esthetics Dentistry 1.0

Sharing 2 slides from the lecture as a prelude to what to expect during the lecture on 25th November 2017.
