Join us for an exciting, fast-paced morning with six speakers addressing some of those confusing and contentious myths and controversies that face us in dentistry today. OHSU faculty will each introduce their topic, identify the opposing viewpoints, review the relevant research, present their position on the topic based on their understanding of the evidence, and answer your questions. Topics and speakers are as follows:
