Dr. Bowe also reviews biopsies and provides long-distance training and consultation to the 300-plus NYU Lutheran dental residents throughout the country. He conceived, created, and maintains Case of the Month, a monthly educational program showcasing interesting conditions of the mouth and jawbones, and is coauthor of the Atlas of Oral and Maxillofacial Histopathology (Lippincott, 2012). Dr. Bowe earned his dental degree at Columbia University College of Dental Medicine and completed his oral pathology residency at Los Angeles County - USC Medical Center in Los Angeles.

Course Description 

Leave the practice-building seminars behind and take a journey into the world of pathology and the disease processes of the human body -- some mysterious, some mundane -- that you might encounter during the practice of dentistry. This three-hour refresher will be entirely case based and stress recognition of disease over clinical management. Both radiographic and mucosal pathology will be covered.

Course includes continental breakfast
