Instructor:
Thomas Nabors, DDS
Dr. Nabors developed a particular interest in periodontogy early in his career due to the high percentage of patients that had periodontal diseases and the significant relapse of these infections.
Leading research scientists have confirmed that periodontal disease is an inflammatory infection that must be treated using modern medical/dental protocols. Utilizing state of the art molecular (DNA-PCR) testing systems, OralDNA Labs (A Quest Diagnostics Company) provides specific bacterial and genetic risk analyses to help maximize and monitor therapeutic success.
- Gain an understanding of how molecular testing applies within dentistry and improves the current standard of care.
