A Fellow in Dental Surgery of the Royal College of Surgeons of England. He became a specialist in Oral Medicine in Tim has 80 citations in peer reviewed journals. His 30 original papers focus on the oral manifestations of HIV infection in both the UK and Africa, HHV8 and CMV transmission in Africa, therapeutic interventions for oral mucosal disease and patient centred outcome measures. He was one of the lead authors of the UK Oral Medicine competencies document and was involved with the UK Oral medicine curriculum development. He has lectured in the USA, Europe, Australia, the Middle East, India and UK on Oral Medicine and medical problems in dentistry. Minimising risk and preventing death how good is your medical history? An ageing population and improved medical outcomes are associated with greater risk in dental practice. Controversies regarding medical management during dental interventions still exist. New medications are introduced annually which may result in orofacial adverse effects or drug interactions with drugs a dentist may wish to prescribe. The medical history is not a tick box exercise and delegates will be encouraged to develop their history taking skills during this presentation. Recent opinions on antibiotic prophylaxis and new anticoagulant therapy and dentistry will be reviewed. Suggestions regarding risk assessment of common medical conditions will help practitioners decide whether a dental intervention is safe to undertake at that visit. Sexual practice and the mouth The mouth is commonly involved in sexual practice. More than half of us will contract a sexually transmitted infection (STI) at some point in our lives. Young people up to the age of 25 have the highest rates of STIs in New Zealand. STIs can infect many areas of the body including the genital and anal areas, mouth and throat. In New Zealand STIs appear more commonly in the Maori and South Pacific population. We will review the oral effects of sex and the local demographics of STIs. Case studies will be used to illustrate the presentation of oral syphilis, gonorrhea, Human immunodeficiency virus, Hepatitis C virus and Human papilloma virus. The link between oral STIs and oral cancer will be explored.

Real world orthodontics. Managing expectations and avoiding pitfalls Orthodontics is one of the most fascinating and frustrating disciplines of dentistry. Despite improvements in modern technology, comprehensive diagnosis, informed consent and evidence-based treatments are still of paramount importance. The timing of orthodontic intervention for growing patients has long been a topic of considerable debate. Careful and focused interceptive treatment for localised problems can be of great benefit, however, wholesale prescription of early treatment to either prevent or treat malocclusion is questionable. Astute marketing by supply companies and practitioners have certainly whetted the appetite for short-term orthodontic alignment with braces or clear plastic aligners. Digital treatment planning and outcome predictions may appear impressive, however, difficulties arise when the progress of treatment or the final results do not match the predictions. The presentation also explores how increasing patient expectations require increasing clinical competency and awareness to prevent the pitfalls in practice.
