Course Description:
The client whose problems meet the DSM-5® criteria for personality disorder can be the most difficult client in your caseload to treat. They may require more time in therapy, more energy and involvement on your part, experience a greater number of life crises, and create more upset with their family, work, and social systems than virtually any other diagnostic group. Often being “sent” for therapy rather than choosing therapy, their motivation for change may be limited and their personality disorders is likely co-morbid with other exacerbating disorders.
Join Brooks Baer, Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and take home an integrated approach for working with these challenging clients.
Objectives:
• Give examples of the essential characteristics of each of the personality disorders in DSM-5®.
• Explain the hidden agendas of each of the personality disorders.
• Describe how transference and countertransference affects clinical management and treatment outcome.

Course Description:
Studies show our brains can be rewired to enhance new learning. In some cases, it acts as an adaptive mechanism to compensate for lost function or maximize remaining function in the event of brain injury. As therapists, when we treat the causes and symptoms of these motor delays, we can utilize alternate brain pathways to improve the effects of therapy. Neuroplasticity changes brain connections and hence, changes motor and cognitive functions. From congenital abnormalities to traumatic brain injuries, this course delivers new and exciting ideas on how to detour around damage and incorporate viable nervous system connections.
Learn how therapy can change the brain and how neuroplasticity can change the challenges in a child’s development. With Dr. Karen Pryor as your guide, you gain creative and evidence-based approaches to incorporate into a multisensory experience to drive home the importance of diverse and novel activities during treatment sessions. Both high and low tones are discussed in depth. Video case studies will demonstrate changes before and after integrative neuroplasticity treatments. The therapy techniques learned in this one-day course can be easily integrated into the clinic or home the next day.
Course Objectives:
• Describe the primitive reflexes’ influence on movement patterns.
• Identify the multilayer approach using neuroanatomy and brain function.
• Evaluate strategies to incorporate techniques into home programs for parents and caregivers.
• Recognize the importance of positive treatment sessions and verbal cues.
• Analyze the relationship between brain dysfunction and tone abnormalities.
• Restate different approaches to changing low and high tone qualities

Streamlining Your Root Canal Treatments is organized by Ultradent Products, Inc. and will be held on Jun 28, 2019 at Colorado Springs Marriott, Colorado Springs, Colorado, United States of America.
The target audience for this medical event is Dentist and Team Members. This CE Conference has been approved for a maximum of 7 CE Credits.
Overview:
Proper cleaning and shaping of the canal space is a prerequisite for achieving clinical success in endodontics. Studies have shown that the best movement to be applied in endodontic instruments is Roane’s Balanced Force technique. The engine-driven Balanced Force, or asymmetric reciprocating motion, has recently been applied to specifically designed nickel-titanium instruments, reducing the risk of fracture due to the accumulation of metal fatigue, which is the leading limitation of rotary nickel-titanium instruments. Though three times safer than the rotary movement, reciprocation alone has a downside of debris accumulation inside the canal.
Objectives:
• The benefits and limitations of reciprocation and rotation
• The importance of file design and how this aspect can improve the instrumentation results
• How to determine the working length electronically
• An intuitive 2-file instrumentation technique, taking advantage of the two different kinematics
• How to perform a superior cleaning using ultrasonification
• The application of MTA repair cement
• How to accomplish an effective single-cone obturation technique
