Lecture on dentine hypersensitivity

The lecture will take place in The Perio lounge at The Dentistry Show at 13:30 on Saturday, May 13.

In addition, David will be giving shorter reviews about managing dentine sensitivity on the Trycare stand E40 at 9:30 and again at 11:00 on Saturday, May 13.

In his main lecture, David Gillam, a specialist in periodontology and recognised expert on dentine hypersensitivity, will highlight recent guidelines regarding the management of dentine hypersensitivity.

“I will explain the importance of working towards a joint management strategy involving both the dental professional and patient to understand the potential impact dentine hypersensitivity has on a patient’s day to day activities,” explained David Gillam. “The steps to be taken to make changes in the patient’s behaviour will also be covered.”

Biomin Technologies, which is sponsoring the lecture, launched its toothpaste ingredient, which puts back the lost minerals from tooth enamel and helps prevent decay and treats sensitivity while you sleep, in London 12 months ago.
