education4 Hinman Dental Meeting — March 27, 2014 Ad By Mark Duncan, DDS, FAGD, LVIF, DICOI, FICCMO, Clinical Director, LVI n Welcome to the Thomas P. Hinman Dental Meeting, and congratulations on actively moving your understand- ingandprofessionalsuccessforward!  It is only through excellent educa- tion that we individually grow and develop as dental health profession- als and, through that, build a practice that is not just successful but deliv- ers comprehensive and high-quality care.   As a patient, I expect the best care I can find. As a doctor, I want to deliver the best care possible. That takes us to the power of continu- ing education, and, as doctors, we are faced with many choices in continu- ing education.   As a way to introduce you to the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies, or LVI, I want to out- line what LVI is about and what void it fills in your practice. The alumni who have completed programs at LVI were given an independent sur- vey, and unlike the typical surveys, 99.7 percent said they love practic- ing dentistry, and of those surveyed, 92 percent enjoy their profession more since they started their training at LVI. That alone is reason enough to go to LVI and find out more. While the programs at LVI cover the full breadth of dentistry, the most powerful and life-changing program is generally reported as being Core I, or “Advanced Functional Dentistry — The Power of Physiologic Based Occlusion.” This program is a three- day course that is designed for doc- tors and their teams to learn together about the power of getting their patients’ physiology on their side.   In this program, doctors can learn how to start the process of taking control of their practice and start to enjoy the full benefits of owning a practice and providing high-quality dentistry.Regardlessofwhetheritisa solo practice or a group setting, every doctor can start the process of creat- ing comprehensive care experiences for his or her patients. We will discuss why some cases doctors are asked to do are actually dangerous ones to restore cosmeti- cally. We will discover the develop- mental science behind how unattrac- tive smiles evolve and what cases mayneedthehelpofauxiliaryhealth- care professionals to get the patient feeling better.   The impact of musculoskeletal signs and symptoms will be explored, and we will look at how the support- ing soft tissue is the most important diagnostic tool you have — not simply the gingiva but the entire soft-tissue support of the structures, in the mouth and also in the rest of the body.  A successful restorative practice shouldnotbebuiltoninsurancereim- bursement schedules. An independ- ent business should stand not on the whimsanddistractionsofafeesched- ule but rather on the ideal benefits of comprehensive care balanced by the patients’ needs and desires.   Dentistry can be a challenging and thankless business, but it doesn’t have to be. Through complete and comprehensive diagnosis, there is an amazing world of thank yous and hugs and tears that our patients bring to us when we change their lives. The Core I program at LVI is the first step on that journey. That’s why when you call, we answer the phone: “LVI, where lives are changing daily!” LVI Core I three-day course designed for doctors and their teams to learn together For more information For more information on the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies, visit www.lviglobal.com. 5 The Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies.
