Thierry BOULANGER graduated as dentist in 1984 and as pediatric dentist in 1988 from Liège University.
He works in private practice and hospital with special emphasis on child and special needs.
More than a decade ago, he added MID ideas in his toolkit to offer child-friendly care to the ever growing number of kids traumatized by “drill and fill”.
He regularly lectures to share his experience and tell colleagues how gentle pediatric dentistry can become.
We have been programmed to “drill and fill”, mainly because of the dogma of total caries removal. And this often requires an injection. Needle and drill phobia is a reality that we have to deal with everyday.
SDF, AgF, the HALL technique, glass ionomer cement, ART, SMART … and the game changer ” Gentle Hand Burs ” will help us go child-friendly and decrease sedation and GA needs.
The speaker will help you make the journey from Needle & Drill most of the times to NO needle, NO drill most of the time, in your practice
