It is with great enthusiasm that I announce the launch of my newest project: Elite Practice Systems: A Paradigm Shift in the Business of Dentistry. This 2 day, 14 hour CE Course in Tampa Florida, at the world class Pikos Institute, takes a deep dive into sparking immediate dental practice growth through evidence based decision making. It is a business focused CE course that will help doctors dramatically increase productivity and revenue; working smarter, not harder, while enhancing the team environment and patient experience. We are revealing novel ways of assessing your practice through analytics, using this info to implement unique management systems that will work to streamline and enhance several areas of business, including: high level scheduling, treatment planning strategies to maximize patient outcomes and practice profitability, referral prioritization, and more!

Regardless of the current level of practice you are in, there will be invaluable, novel systems presented for promoting growth and efficiency. For those looking to take a smaller practice to the next level of success, what you will learn in this course will be integral to launching your practice to the next level of productivity. For those in larger, more productive practices, the course will offer highly proven strategies to streamline and
catapult the practice into a new stratosphere of patient engagement, team productivity, and growth.

We will be introducing an easy-to-use analytics software to aid in practice evaluation as well.

If you are considering a course to help spark immediate growth in your practice, please sign up now – there are 5 practice spots left for our February course. Each doctor attendee will also bring one trusted team member (office manager, lead administrator), as this course is geared not just for doctors, but to also engage the team to implement the systems we offer. We firmly believe that for successful growth, the doctor can’t do it alone.

Please contact me with any questions or if you’re ready to schedule, call the Pikos Institute at (727) 781-0491 and ask for Kali or Mandi today.

Living in California has really had me conflicted recently. It’s natural beauty, and forward thinking citizenry, undoubtedly speak to many of my values and soul. That said, California, like most places, also has its share of challenges. For me, specifically, when social or political positions seem to go too far, or become intrusive or oppressive. However, it is days like today, when being out in nature, breathing in the soothing coastline, that help me realize that with all its faults, there are very few other places on Earth, I would want to call home...

Root coverage procedures can be one of the most gratifying procedures I do for my patients with generalized gingival recession . This patient had received autogenous “roof of the mouth” gingival grafts 20 years earlier, in the lower arch. She had such a negative experience, that she never returned for treatment that was recommended for the upper teeth. “I just could not go through that again” said the patient. Years later, this same patient heard from a friend, about the minimally invasive procedures I offer. We reviewed her options, and agreed to use allografts to graft the upper teeth. This case highlights an important issue, which is, “what treatment options do we offer to our patients, when it is not just one or two teeth that require gingival augmentation?” With the right case selection, acellular dermal matrix can be used instead of the patient’s own tissue, and the entire arch can be treated within one hour. No incisions were necessary in the above case, and the patient reported minimal discomfort afterwards. Tears of joy streamed down her face, when after healing, she reported that for the first time in years, she was able to smile wide without feeling self conscious, or manipulating how her lip covers her teeth.

It was an honor lecturing last night to a bright and enthusiastic group of colleagues, on the topic of cutting edge techniques/trends in gingival plastic surgery. Thanks to Dr. Souyias, one of the most talented, and genuine humans I know, for hosting me. It’s a privilege to call you a friend 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Root resorption is a common condition I see in my practice. Depending on the aggressiveness and depth of the lesion, I usually try to keep these teeth as long as possible. As long as the adjacent tissues are healthy and adjacent bone and periodontium are in tact.

Even if we move to an implant later, its less years an implant has to remain in function. Here I raised a flap, debrided the lesion with a Piezosurgery 3 surgical unit, used Geristore restorative material to fill the lesion, and then augmented the soft tissue with an autogenous connective tissue graft. No pulpal exposure was noted during the debridement.

Saving teeth is always my #1 priority, when it makes sense.

I present a sinus bump case in honor of Wednesday Hump Day :) There are many options for sequencing dental implant therapy in the posterior maxilla. There are many people that advocate extracting a tooth, elevating the floor of the sinus, and placing the implant fixture, all in one visit. In my hands, I am usually more comfortable extracting the the tooth, and getting soft tissue healing first. After 3-6 months of healing, if the bone volume allows, we can punch the tissue, and do a flapless implant fixture placement, while at the same time, tenting the sinus floor through the osteotomy of the implant. This procedure is quick, efficient, and results in almost no pain post-operatively for the patient. It still amazes me to this day how little pain there can be with this type of minimally invasive approach. In this case above, I used a combination of twist drills and Piezosurgery to access the sinus, small particle size bovine xenograft (BioOss by Geistlich), and a Straumann Bone Level Tapered fixture. This method is my go to for cases where I have sufficient residual bone below the sinus to place the implant at the time of sinus floor elevation. The implant is restored 3 months after placement.

Immediate implant placement and provisionalization is one of the most gratifying aspects of my surgical practice. I love being able help patients that that walk in with a hopeless tooth, and let have them walk out with a new tooth! Of course, not every implant case is done this way in my practice, but many of them are. The key to ideal outcomes is case selection. Factors we look at to help aid in the decision making for immediate placement - thick buccal bone, thick soft tissue, minimal damage to the bone, adjacent anatomical structures, available bone lateral or apical to the socket, and occlusal considerations. If we achieve sufficient primary stability at the time of implant placement, I can place a provisional that must be out of occlusion. The patient is instructed to NOT BITE with the tooth for 3 months, to allow for osseointegration (fusion with the bone). This also helps to maintain the soft tissue contours and papillae for the final restorative phase. I used a Straumann Bone Level implant for this case. I can’t wait for the wide release of the BLX implant, that should allow for higher torque values, especially in cases like this. After placement, I typically graft the residual gap with BioOss.
