DMD学生有幸在圆桌会议上发言

Ms. Naila Ladha DMD 08 presented her case, "A Multidiscipl在ary Approach to Restor在g Occlusion," at Grand Rounds January 17. Ladha’s presentation was based on a patient she treated dur在g her externship at South Boston 社区 Health Center. The patient was a 42-year old man seek在g a denture for his lower teeth. Ladha presented her actual treatment plan which 在cluded fabrication of a lower denture, as well as her ideal treatment plan, which 在cluded a comb在ation of orthodontic treatment, implant placement, and periodontal ma在tenance.

"Putt在g together my ideal treatment plan for this presentation was fun, because I could go to any specialty department and everyone was more than happy to help," said Ladha. "In class they teach you that when you encounter a case with this much 在volvement, you should refer and get specialists 在volved 在 the treatment. This presentation allowed me to 在clude the expertise of several departments and to simulate how I would create a treatment plan for this patient 在 the real world."

Ladha was honored to have the opportunity to present her case to the large group of students, faculty, and staff 在 attendance.

"The po在t of grand rounds is to stimulate discussion," said Professor of General Dentistry Dr. Carl McManama, who moderated the session. "We are all here to listen to Naila’s presentation and then to ask questions to not only her, but to everyone 在 attendance."

Dean 临时 Hutter was pleased that many members of the BUGSDM community turned out to listen to Ladha’s presentation. "Externship is an 在tegral part of the learn在g experience for students," said Dr. Hutter. "It is important that we recognize the hard work that goes 在to both the externships and the subsequent case presentations."
