Fifth Quarter Seminars PRESENTS
We were very pleased to announce three new seminars for 2018. The Hawaii program, now completed, was shared by Drs. Jose- Luis Ruiz and Ray Bertolotti. The same program sold out at Los Angeles and San Francisco and received rave reviews so it is being repeated in several locations in 2018, listed at the bottom of this page. Emphasized are supra-gingival restorative techniques for tooth conservation and esthetics. New to the program are minimal to no prep, all-ceramic adhesion bridges, proven in clinical trials to be 100% successful at 10 years! Also in the program is another game changer, a dual-cured bulk fill composite with unlimited depth of cure and no gaps at the bond interface, a property never before seen with bulk fills.
Our Yosemite & Lake Tahoe programs are announced below. These programs have great international guest speakers, not to be missed . Ray Bertolotti will be Moderator and perhaps do a related cameo presentation (depending on timing). .
This web site in not presently taking registrations. Registration can be done by calling us (510) 483-2411 (not before 8 AM, Pacific time, please) or by secure FAX (510) 652-8729.
If you have previously attended one of our Fifth Quarter Seminars, most likely all we need is your credit card number and expiry date. We have the rest on file. Of course you may also send a check but we advise calling first to be sure that there is space and we will reserve space. If you are new to our seminars, it is probably easiest to print and mail or FAX this form.

South Lake Tahoe, Nevada COMPLETED - with high acclaim!
Next year: August 10, 2019 - speaker Geoff Knight

Montbleu Resort
"The all-ceramic adhesion bridge: esthetic, minimally invasive and proven successful."
Guest Speaker: Professor Matthias Kern of Germany
Our guest speaker is Professor Matthias Kern from Germany. (His spoken English is excellent.) The all-ceramic adhesion bridges are the subject of his new Quintessence book (available in English and German).
Matthias will show cantilevered anterior zirconia adhesion bridges, almost no prep, with proven 100% success at 10 years. This is a perfect solution for missing lateral and central incisors. (Ray just laughs when he hears “zirconia cannot be bonded’).
Similar concepts for replacement of posterior teeth, presented in the seminar, are now being tested and show promising medium-term (4-5 year) outcomes, comparable success rates to single tooth implants. This seminar presents the indications (and contraindications) for all ceramic adhesion bridges and provides very detailed (but not difficult) procedures required for clinical success. Successful bonding to zirconia ceramic is one of the key issues here. Dr. Bertolotti will be adding some advice on choice of materials.
Some key topics:
· Why zirconia, when alumina bonds better?
· Ideal for mandibular incisor replacement
· Choosing cuspid or incisor abutment
· Best zirconia adhesion methods
· Mid-term (5 yr.) results for posterior teeth
· Translucent zirconia is not strong enough
· Why cantilevers perform best
· Why use Panavia F2.0, not Panavia V or SA?
Seminar hours: The seminar is held at the Montbleu Resort. Registration and coffee at 8 AM, seminar begins at 8:30 AM. The seminar will end around 4 PM. Lunch is on you own.
Tuition is $ 290. for the first person. Additional persons registering with the first person are are discounted to $190. each.

Yosemite SOLD OUT, Call for cancellation space (510-483-2411)
November 1-3, 2018
Yosemite Majestic Hotel (formerly Ahwahnee) “Creating the “Super Tooth”, overcoming polymerization shrinkage and new approaches to preventive dentistry”. Guest Speaker: Prof. Junji Tagami of Tokyo Medical and Dental University. Creating the “Super Tooth” with the latest adhesive materials increases the chemical and mechanical properties of tooth structure, both enamel and dentin. This development is expected to be effective in preventing the recurrent caries as well as erosion and tooth wear. The performance of the so called “universal bond”, “bulk-fill composite”, and “self-adhesive cement” are evaluated by the optical coherent tomography (OCT). The OCT approach is unique in its ability to visually record polymerization shrinkage as it happens. The results lead directly to choosing optimal materials and develop clinical techniques. The most reliable adhesive systems and their optimized procedures for use will be presented for both direct and indirect aesthetic restorations. Silverdiamine fluoride (SDF) has recently received attention in the USA. SDF is not new to Japan; it has been used for over 50 years, mostly in pedodontics. SDF is now being re-evaluated as the anti-caries agent and also as the caries indicator for elderly people. After reviewing the historical clinical experience, Professor Tagami will guide us in its clinical use. The other recent approaches for prevention and monitoring of caries, utilizing SDF, will be discussed. The objectives are to increase the oral health and the quality of life of patients. Seminar hours: The seminar is held at the Majestic Hotel, Thursday through Saturday, November 1 to 3, 2018. On Thursday, registration and coffee begin at 2 p.m. On Thursday the seminar will be from 2:30 to 7 p.m. (Dinner reservations should take the ending time into consideration.) On Friday and Saturday, the seminar will be from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.. Tuition is $ 480. per person. Registration at the door, add $20. per person, space permitting (we usually sell out). Since refunds for tuition paid by credit card are subject to deduction of our banking costs, the preferred method to register is to send your check. You may also FAX your registration. Cancellations receive refunds with at least 14 days advance notice or if someone takes your place. 14 hours CE credit.
