Welcome to AAPD 2020 in Nashville!

Welcome to AAPD 2020 in Nashville, Tennessee! Music City USA is the center for country music, singers, and songwriters from all over the world. The Ryman Auditorium was built in 1892 as the largest auditorium south of the Ohio River. It is known as the Mother Church of country music. The Grand Ole Opry is an American icon, the longest-running radio show in America, and has helped launch the careers of countless country musicians. Nashville isn’t just country music; music of all types can be found here. It is the home of the Nashville Predators and the Tennessee Titans. Nashville is a vibrant, growing city, breaking out with new businesses, delivering a dynamic food and cocktail scene, and hosting stunning outdoor scenery. However, music is the common thread that is woven into Nashville’s social fabric. The bright lights of Broadway are a reminder that this is the place where music is written, recorded, and performed 365 days a year.

AAPD 2020 will take place at the Music City Center located in downtown Nashville. It is surrounded by numerous hotels, restaurants, and entertainment venues. Tour the Country Music Hall of Fame and the Ryman Auditorium to experience the evolution of one of the fastest growing and most influential genres of music. Nashville also boasts the museums of the country legends: Johnny Cash, Patsy Cline, and George Jones. For fresh air, enjoy the beauty of outdoor Nashville at Centennial Park, where verdant greens attract wildlife around a gorgeous lake with waterside paths all against the backdrop of a full-scale replica of the Greek Parthenon. Take an afternoon stroll through Hillsboro Village or East Nashville to check out local shops, restaurants, and cafes. Explore Green Hills for the city’s most popular retailers. Go antiquing in the charming historic downtown Franklin. For the history buffs, explore the Carter house to find out about a decisive battle in the Civil War.

The Welcome Reception will be held at multiple venues centering on 2nd Avenue. The Wildhorse Saloon will offer live music, line danc- ing, and Southern cuisine. Experience George Jones’ legacy at the George Jones Museum, and see his memorabilia up close and personal, immersing yourself in his powerful story. To the east, you can find Riverfront Park with fun for the whole family.

On behalf of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry and the Local Arrangements Committee, we would like to welcome you to Nashville for the 73rd Annual Session. The Scientific Program Committee has been tireless in organizing a program and line-up of speakers that brings contemporary topics to the forefront. We are certain that you and your staff will find the topics appealing: trauma management, behavior guidance, interceptive orthodontics, minimally invasive caries management, and more!

We would like to thank John Rutkauskas and the AAPD staff of Kristi Casale, Colleen Bingle, Caroline Oliva and Kelly Stancato for their hard work in helping to plan the wonderful venues for the program. Mark your calendars and please join us at AAPD 2020 in Nashville, May 21-24.

Sincerely,

Kurt Swauger and Martha Wells

MOLAR HYPOMINERALIZATION Brandon Schwindt, D.M.D. A routine exam that discovers a sensitive, brown, crumbling and carious first permanent molar in a previously asymptomatic 6-year-old is a challenging clinical scenario for the doctor and patient alike. Can I get this tooth numb enough? Will the restoration hold? Should I seal the remaining groves? Is a permanent stainless steel crown the best solution? What about or extraction? Turns out, that the current literature gives us pediatric dentists evidence-based guidance on how to set up these teeth, and ulti- mately the patients, for long term success. This lecture will take a deep dive in to the composition of the hypomineralized molar. We will also be describing different strategies for restoring these teeth with a focus on sensitivity reduction and long-term preserva- tion of enamel.

Rainbow® Stabilizing System

Will Your Next Patient Pose A Safety Risk?

When there is a risk of sudden, unsafe movement, you owe it to your patients and to your practice to use safety equipment specifically designed for dentistry.

The Rainbow® Stabilizing System consists of a colorful, breathable mesh wrap to prevent patient over-heating, and a padded vinyl-covered board for stability. Together, they help prevent kicking, grabbing and thrashing that can pose a danger for all involved.

Need stabilization for larger patients? Or do you need additional accessories such as a head stabilizer? We’ve got your practice covered.

To learn more about the breadth of our Rainbow Stabilizing System, or to place an order, visit our website at https://specializedcare.com. Or call us at 800-722-7375.
