The clinical presentation and applied differential diagnosis will be discussed with each condition in a concise and clear manner, giving the dental hygienists information that they can use on a daily basis. Objectives Upon completion of this course, the attendee will 1. Learn about the most common gingival swellings 2. Learn how to avoid the recurrence of the reactive gingival swellings 3. Learn about salivary gland neoplasms and their occurrence in children 4. Learn about the common swellings of the lower lip and buccal mucosa 5.

Session 2 Presenter: Dr. Lakshni Boyapati Course Outline: This lecture will begin by analyzing the esthetic zone and factors to consider when evaluating a smile. It will also define mucogingival defects and discuss their etiology. Classification of defects and the corresponding treatment options and success rates will be detailed before clinically based case presentations. These cases will be used to illustrate the range of periodontal plastic surgical techniques that can be used to provide optimal esthetic outcomes. The surgical techniques that I will show will predominantly fall into 4 categories: Connective tissue grafts; Free gingival grafts; Tunnelling techniques; and Pedicle grafts Objectives: 1)Define Mucogingival Defect 2)Be able to discuss elements of an "ideal smile" 3)Be able to classify and mucogingival defect 4)State the amount of root coverage that can be expected based on type of MG defect 5)Discuss surgical techniques that may be used in different clinical cases About the Presenter: Dr. Lakshmi S.
