Medical Emergencies has the reputation of being a rather dry and theoretical subject. Not so when presented by Dr Joe Omar. Dr Omar is a Clinical Lecturer at the Eastman Dental Institute and runs a private practice in Den- tal Anaesthesia and Sedation in Central London with more than 200 referring dentists. In his lively and amusing presentation Dr Omar will ex- plain what constitutes an emer- gency and engage with delegates about the time-critical ways to tackle them. After establish- ing what problems may arise in the surgery, delegates will be shown the vital equipment needed by every dental practice, which falls into one of five key categories; oxygen, resuscita- tion, drug box, portable suction and defibrillation. Dr Omar will then round up by describing the key conditions likely to be en- countered in the dental practice including breathing difficulties and choking and the best ways to treat them. 3 Have a chance to speak to the cream of dental manufacturing and serv- ice at the trade exhibition.

Endodontic success rates vary considerably around the world from 50-90 per cent, which implies that many endo- dontic treatments are failing. The management of endodontic failure is one of the biggest chal- lenges practitioners will face in modern dentistry, and as a re- sult, many teeth are unnecessar- ily extracted and replaced with implants. Widely recognised as one of the country’s leading voices in endodontics, Dr Ju- lian Webber will be sharing his views on how to manage endo- dontic failure. 5 Let your hair down and raise some money as Smile-on, the AOG and The Dental Directory host the glittering State of the Nation Charity Ball.
