"Aiming for Success:  Analog to Digital"
This course is designed to provide dental auxiliaries with practical information on intraoral radiography techniques.  The basic principals of intraoral radiography will be discussed including hands-on application of these principles to digital radiography.

"Dental Pulp Stem Cells rom Analog To Digital"
Dental stem cells, along with other stem cells from the craniofacial region, develop from material that is created during the development of the nervous system and have the potential to differentiate into neural cell lines   Researchers are examining what role they might play in tissue regeneration.

This course will offer material that will highlight  and answer questions regarding the following information:

*    Why are stem cells important?
*    What is dental pulp?
*    What does current research indicate?
*    Why is this important to you and your family?
*    What are the potential for uses of Mesenchymal Stem Cells?
