  Does the processing of Surgical devices have a role in the “Tsunami of Peri-Implantitis”?

  Does the processing of Surgical devices have a role in the “Tsunami of Peri-Implantitis”?

  • Held by:
    Drssa Livia barenghi

  It is a seminar mainly for the dental surgery team in Italian language.
  Implant osseointegration relies on bone remodelling, a complex biological process involving many bone cells, including the delicate mesenchymal stem cells (MSC). MSC differentiate into different progenitor cells, throughout a cascade of coordinated cellular events and the interaction of biochemical compounds with implant and abutment designs and surface.  Many pathogens could impair this process and moreover, a local immune system deficiency is present during implant positioning. New implant surface has been developed with low adhesion for pathogens.   Nowadays, the improvement of osseointegration is needed for the success during mainly the immediate loading on the peri-implant bone healing in dental implant treatments.
  Since the emerging “Tsunami of peri-implantitis”, are always surgeons sure to use STERILE instruments?
  Many error and failures during surgical instrument processing are possible (from not accurate washing step to sterility lost) and could impair osseontegration. Some dangerous pathogens, present in “the dental office niche”, can integrate in osteoblasts and stay inactive along.
  The seminar will review the International Recommendations and will focus on many  error and failures during  surgical instrument processing (as far as not accurate washing step, autoclave monitoring,  packaging and sterility lost) … since the money for infection control and prevention  is lower  than the money and troubles required to cure peri-implantitis.

  Processing of Orthodontic Medical Devices

  Processing of Orthodontic Medical Devices

  • Held by:
    Dr.ssa Livia Barenghi

   

  It is a seminar for the orthodontic dental team in Italian language.
  The practice of Orthodontics is characterized by high turnover of young patients and a variety of vehicles for transmission of infectious and contagious diseases. In recent years, a strong behavior change regarding the control of cross infection during dental treatment and for occupational safety was perceived among orthodontists.  Standard surgical sterilization can change orthodontic ligature-cutting pliers. Sterilization/disinfection procedures should be adapted to the chemical profile of the metal alloys present. An unsuitable processing of orthodontic medical devices often causes stains, pits and metal corrosion. The consequences range from aesthetic changes of instruments, to the lower resistance of the cutting edges and shorter life-time of wire-cutting pliers.
  The topics are:

  • Patient safety in dentistry
  • Well-Known and emerging pathogens
  • Occupational safety
  • Recommendations (CDC, ISPESL 2010 e  UNI-Tr 11408 Standard)
  • Orthodontic Medical Devices: high quality and low-cost ones
  • Orthodontic Instrument Processing
  • Damage and Corrosion of Orthodontic Medical Devices: causes and solutions
  • Instrument packaging, storage and sterility maintenance
  • Surface and equipment asepsis with innovative products
  • Disinfection of microbially soiled postodontic materials and orthodontic devices
  • “To learn by our mistakes” from selected educational materials
  • Future follow-up meeting

  Sharps with Engineered Sharps Injury Protection

  Sharps with Engineered Sharps Injury Protection

  • Held by:
    Dr.ssa Livia Barenghi

  It is a seminar for the dental team in Italian language.

  The elimination of unnecessary use of sharps, the implementation of the use of SESIP, the information and awareness-raising , and dental team training are the main clues reported in the Recommendation “Framework Agreement on Prevention From Sharp Injuries in The Hospital and Healthcare Sector”- edited by European Biosafety Network. SESIP is the acronym of “Sharps with Engineered Sharps Injury Protection”.  Many references agree with the fact that the needle and finger is respectively the instrument and the body part most likely involved in sharp injury. Moreover, percutaneous injuries mainly damages hands (78%) and happen during dental care (71%), while 2/3 of the remaining ones happen during instrument processing.

  The topics are:

  • Blood borne pathogens: diseases, transmission and risks
  • Occupational injury
  • Risk factors for sharp injury
  • Recommendations (CDC-2003, Directive n° 2010/32/UE)
  • Standard precautions, safe handling of sharps and  changes in practice since the banned practice of needle recapping
  • How does SESIP chose?
  • Immediate actions when a sharps injury/contamination incident occurs (Exposure Prone Procedures)

  Premessa

  SESIP è l’acronimo di “Sharps with Engineered Sharps Injury Protection” che sta ad indicare aghi e altri strumenti taglienti costruiti con caratteristiche strutturali e operative tali da ridurre gli incidenti percutanei. Si sottolinea che il 78% delle lesioni percutanee coinvolge le mani. Nella maggior parte delle lesioni percutanee è coinvolta una siringa sia per le ASO (48%) sia per i dentisti (67%; 33.3% durante anestesia locale). Le lesioni percutanee avvengono principalmente durante l’attività clinica (71%),  mentre circa i 2/3 delle rimanenti avviene durante la preparazione degli strumenti, il loro ricondizionamento o durante le procedure di laboratorio.

  Obiettivo del Corso

  E’ la prevenzione delle lesioni da strumenti taglienti secondo le raccomandazioni del Cdc-2003 e la Direttiva Europea 32/2010.  In particolare,  la Direttiva 2010/32/UE prescrive:

  a) di usare dispositivi medici dotati di meccanismi di protezione e sicurezza;

  b) i criteri di selezione per i dispositivi medici di sicurezza;

  c) il divieto della pratica di reincappucciamento degli aghi;

  d) di utilizzare procedure di utilizzo e di eliminazione sicure di dispositivi medici taglienti;

  e) di eliminare l’uso superfluo degli oggetti taglienti/appuntiti;

  f) di formare il personale sull’uso dei dispositivi medici dotati di meccanismi di sicurezza e sull’uso dei dispositivi di protezione individuale;

  g) la direttiva prevedeva l’applicazione immediata, il recepimento della norma entro il 10 maggio 2012 e l’indicazione delle sanzioni entro il 1 maggio 2013.

  Programma

  • Epidemiologia delle lesioni percutanee
  • Esame delle raccomandazioni del CDC-2003 e la la Direttiva Europea 32/2010
  • Selezione di alcuni prodotti SESIP per l’utilizzo o lo smaltimento in sicurezza dei taglienti
  • Confronto di alcuni prodotti SESIP in relazione alle caratteristiche tecniche, operatività e costi
• 

  Failure, relapse and retention in Orthodontics

  Failure, relapse and retention in Orthodontics

  • Held by:
    Prof Rainer Reginald Miethke

  The topics failure, relapse, and retention are not often discussed and if so authors/lecturers busy themselves more with stability. It seems as if relapse is not a genuine problem. In reality, failure and relapse are threatening predicaments in orthodontics. However, if these difficulties are seriously dealt with they can lose some of their menace. This daylong lecture will primarily attempt to cover the etiology of relapses as well as concepts to prevent them.

  The following aspects will be discussed:

  1) Definition of failure, relapse, partial relapse and retention
  2) Frequency of relapses
  3) Etiology of relapse
  3.1) Lack of functional adaptation
  3.2) Posttreatment growth
  3.3) Reoccurrence/persistence of etiological factors (habits)
  3.4) 3rd molars
  3.5) Unknown multiple factors
  4) Preretention procedures
  5) Retention appliances
  5.1) Fixed appliances
  5.2) Removable appliances

  The entire lecture is practice orientated – only a few text slides are presented but many clinical examples will be demonstrated.
