This presentation explores the transformative potential at the crossroads of dentistry, where technology meets traditional practices to enhance comprehensive patient care. We will delve into the intersections between medicine and dentistry, periodontics and orthodontics, and technology and biology. The discussion will highlight cases focusing on these cross roads from orthodontic therapy with periodontal surgeries, such as surgically facilitated orthodontic therapy (SFOT) and how we can incorporate restorative work to optimize the final case. Additionally, we will explore solutions for a single missing tooth in the adolescent and adult patient utilizing the remarkable possibilities of tooth autotransplantation. The focus will be how this integrative approach can revolutionize patient outcomes. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of how to leverage these advancements to provide holistic, patient-centered care.
