Oha atu ki a koutou katoa!

Greetings to you all!

On behalf of the entire New Zealand

Association of Orthodontists, WELCOME

to Napier, host city for our 2015 biennial

conference, entitled “Meeting of the Minds”.

Did you know? The total population of the Napier-Hastings is

nearly 130,000 people, making it the fi fth largest urban area in

New Zealand, closely followed by Tauranga and Dunedin.

Napier has a rich history of early European contact with the local

Ngati Kahugunu tribe, following Captain Cook’s identifi cation

of the area for a future port in 1769. There is the history of

geographic catastrophe in 1931, followed by a unique Art Deco

rebuild that we can all enjoy today. The region maintains world-

class status for horticulture, agriculture and viticulture.

The conference committee members have worked tirelessly

over the last 18 months to “nut out” a theme that, while not

solving all our orthodontic problems, should achieve a desirable

objective. That is to promote us to think.

We in the NZAO wish to gratefully acknowledge the superb

assistance from Conference Innovators, and the generosity

and support of all our sponsors and trading partners.

Thursday 9.30am, Ballroom

Preventing decalcification during fixed ortho txLaurie Walsh

Up to 96% of patients experience cariogenic attacks which result in enamel mineral

loss during their treatment with fixed appliances. This lecture will explore what

drives this process and how it can be prevented and treated, drawing on the latest

studies on ecological changes in plaque biofilms, cariogenic micro-organisms,

tooth surface protection methods, and accelerated methods for reversal of white

spot lesions. There will be a focus on the practical steps which can be taken in

orthodontic practice prevent patients developing white spot leisons.

Thursday 11.00am, Ballroom

Preventing disease during orthodontic treatmentEric Reynolds

Oral hygiene and dental plaque control can be difficult for a patient during

orthodontic treatment. Dental plaque can transform from a commensal

(harmless/beneficial) polymicrobial biofilm community to a pathogenic biofilm

through a process called dysbiosis. This involves the emergence of keystone

pathogens and disruption of homeostasis through changing environmental

factors such as an acidic environment through frequent sugar exposure or a

haem-rich environment through chronic inflammation. Although previously the

focus has been on antimicrobial additions to oral care products to control plaque

and disease the focus is now shifting to a prebiotic approach to encourage

growth of commensal organisms at the expense of pathogens. These agents

combined with traditional agents (e.g. fluoride) now provide an effective strategy

to minimise dysbiosis and disease associated with orthodontic treatment.

Research translation – what’s in it for healthcare professionals?Mike Hubbard

“Translational research” and “research translation” have recently emerged as

desirable catchcries for health science. What do these terms mean, how do

they differ from classical approaches to research, and what do the underlying

concepts hold for orthodontists and other healthcare professionals?

Twelve years ago (and part way through an orthodontic treatment),

Mike Hubbard was enticed to Melbourne to help implement a translational

research program in orofacial sciences. Mike will provide a “translational

case report” that traces his exciting journey, from initial interactions with the

visionary instigators (an orthodontist, maxillofacial surgeon and philanthropist)

to world-first translational team-based successes in research, education,

policy and product development.


Research translation – an orthodontist’s experiencePaul Schneider

Best-practice orthodontics still involves many solutions that are based more

on “tried and true” than on strong science. And whilst most practitioners

are aware of clinical challenges that would benefit from better scientific

understanding, few of them have the time or experience to undertake the

required research. In 2001, Paul Schneider and two colleagues (a maxillofacial

surgeon and a philanthropist) undertook to establish what was then-called

a “bench to bedside” research initiative in orofacial sciences. Paul will

outline the founders’ vision of attracting career scientists to help investigate

clinical problems, his involvement in world-first translational research and

education projects, and ensuing prospects for an improved scientific basis to

individually-tailored orthodontic practice.

HypomineralisationErin Mahoney

Molar Hypomineralisation (MH) is common in NZ with approximately 15% of

children presenting with it in their first permanent molars. MH is a common

reason for referral to Paediatric Dentists. This lecture will discuss the common

presentations and treatment options for these teeth and how a combined

Paediatric Dentistry and Orthodontic treatment plan will maximise the

outcome for the affected child.


Optimised methods for plaque controlLaurie Walsh

This presentation explores the triple threats of oral hygiene - the don’t know,

can’t do and won’t do, presenting some of the latest evidence on better ways

to reach patients with messages about oral hygiene, the science around the

use of powered brushes, the technology of antiplaque toothpaste actions,

and the ways to monitor plaque age and detect sites of ongoing struggle

using ulticolour plaque disclosing systems.

Introducing new technologies to your orthodontic practiceIgor Lavrin

The orthodontic world is rapidly changing with new technologies introduced

and marketed to both the orthodontist and the consumer patient direct.

This presentation gives a personal account of some triumphs and pitfalls of

introducing new technologies and systems. Our experience with Invisalign,

Incognito, Suresmile and computer packages will be discussed. Advice and

a tangible checklist of questions will be imparted to assist when considering

new technologies. This lecture will be useful for both doctors and staff.


Paediatric implications of hypomineralisationErin Mahoney

Molar Hypomineralisation (MH) is common in NZ with approximately 15% of

children presenting with it in their first permanent molars. MH is a common

reason for referral to Paediatric Dentists. This lecture will discuss the common

Preventing and reversing peri- bracket white spot lesionsEric Reynolds

Orthodontic patients may develop white spot lesions during their course of

treatment. These lesions may be at risk of iatrogenic damage during bracket

and adhesive removal, at risk of further progression or may be a cosmetic

concern for the patient. Early enamel caries (white spot lesions) can be

repaired by remineralization with bioavailable calcium, phosphate and fluoride

ions using certain products and regimens. In this presentation the scientific

evidence for enhanced remineralization of white spot lesions with bioavailable

calcium, phosphate and fluoride ions will be reviewed and recommendations

given for the prevention and treatment of white spot lesions during and after

orthodontic treatment.

Friday 2.00pm, Ballroom

The evolution of Invisalign: from tooth tipper to comprehensive tooth moverIgor Lavrin

Invisalign initially had limited capabilities as an orthodontic treatment modality

but has now improved in its efficiency and outcomes. A brief review of its

evolution as well as current use in both simple and advanced treatment will

be presented. Some advantages over fixed appliances will also be shown.A

Soft tissue inflammatory changes and their prevention and managementLaurie Walsh

Beautifully aligned teeth should be framed by healthy gingival tissues, and

therein lies the challenge. Today there are a range of home care products

which can be used to modulate inflammatory changes in the mouth, and

which are often not used to maximal effect by dental practitioners. The best

protocols for reducing gingival inflammation will be discussed. Once tissue

contours go awry, retrieving the situation aesthetically can be difficult - and

here there is a niche application for compact diode lasersin orthodontic

practice for conservative gingivoplasty.

Saturday 8.30am, Breakout Room 2

NZAO Mentoring Meeting Panellists Donna Lim, Fiona Turner, Rachel Smith and Ross Anning join
