Driving medical-dental integration with telehealth technology
Dental Economics
Numerous studies show that having separate healthcare systems treating the same patients results in poor healthcare outcomes and high healthcare costs. Colocation can be a good start, but some big problems still need to be addressed.

Lateral incisor replacement following failed endodontics
Inside Dentistry
With ceramic dental implants offering a metal-free, esthetically white option, clinicians may want to investigate incorporating them into their implant practices. Although ceramic implants have historically had a one-piece design, improvements in the technology used to fabricate them have resulted in the development of two-piece ceramic implant/abutment systems. With this advancement, ceramic implants can now be restored following a traditional implant workflow and even facilitate screw retention of the ceramic abutment to the fixture using a carbon fiber screw.

New 2021 CDT codes for the New Year
RDH
We are all hoping for an improved climate and maybe a little “normal” in the coming year. In dentistry, 2021 will bring some new dental insurance codes, revise some existing codes, and delete a few from use. We can look forward to changes that will help us more clearly represent the services we provide for our patients and enhance the metrics for tracking those services.

Despite pandemic, dental care for children must continue
ADA News
Organizers of the Give Kids A Smile event in St. Louis had long been looking forward to 2021 — the birthplace of GKAS was set to celebrate the program’s 20th anniversary — when the COVID-19 pandemic hit. It quickly became clear that the 2021 event was not going to be the same, said GKAS St. Louis cofounder Jeff Dalin, D.D.S. In previous years, the event provided full-service dentistry to about 350-500 kids at the Saint Louis University Center for Advanced Dental Education. Crowding hundreds of children in one location was no longer possible. However, one other thing was even clearer: canceling was not an option.

What you need to know about a dental bone graft
Healthline
A dental bone graft is a procedure performed to increase the amount of bone in a part of the jaw where bone has been lost or where additional support is needed. Bone may be taken from elsewhere in the body and surgically fused to existing bone in the jaw. Sometimes, synthetic bone material is used. A dental bone graft is sometimes needed if further procedures, such as dental implants, are necessary or if bone loss is affecting the health of nearby gums and teeth.
