PROGRAM TOPICS

Prosthodontics in the 21st Century

It is no secret that today, with new materials and computerized manufacturing we are planning and building our prosthetic cases in a radically different way. Things are changing so fast, it is difficult to keep up. Our problem as clinicians is the vast majority of us were never exposed or trained in these techniques. The change in manufacturing also requires a change in how we approach our cases, and how we make clinical choices. In this seminar, we will start with the basic material in the modern esthetic case, Ceramics. We will make a case for using this material and will cover its chemistry and structure. Different ceramic systems will be covered along with their clinical implications and how they are handled in the dental laboratory. The last part of the ceramic seminar will focus on those ceramic systems that require CAD CAM manufacturing along with their clinical implications. Our next topic will cover the Science and Art of Color, and how that applies to our ceramic systems. We will go over the complexity of why we make errors in our choices, and what we must do to overcome those errors. We will end our journey by going into the detail of using digital equipment for impressions, how we use planning software, how we mill, what material we mill, how we print, what we print, and how we use Cone Beam technology to plan and integrate with our planning software. Once we cover these topics, we will cover the compromises we make with this technology, when to use it appropriately, and most important, when not to use it. When we have completed this seminar, you should be able to make the appropriate choice of material and manufacturing method to match the case you wish to construct based on what the patient's conditions present to you.

Managing Your Practice and Personal Finances for Optimum Profitability and Success: The Power of 50% (or Less) Overhead Expense

MAKE MORE * KEEP MORE * * INVEST FOR SUCCESS AND ECONOMIC FREEDOM* LEARN HOW TO MAKE IT HAPPEN! THIS COURSE IS A MUST FOR DOCTORS, SPOUSES AND TEAM LEADERS/OFFICE MANAGERS - AT ANY STAGE OF THEIR CAREERS Instructor: Dr. Hugh Habas This is a seminar focusing on the tools needed to ensure practice profitability (the net), common mistakes to avoid and systematic investment strategies designed to create economic freedom. It has been estimated that approximately 95% of dentists in the U.S. do not have the financial ability to retire at age 65 and enjoy the same standard of living they did during the years they were in practice. Younger and mid-career dentists are being overwhelmed by student and practice debt, very often with no strategy or clarity on how to manage these challenges. Dentists approaching retirement need to preserve what they have accumulated with the expectation of great longevity. The presentation will be designed to address all these issues with a focus on effective practice management, systematic approaches to wealth-building and asset accumulation during one's career in dentistry. Topics will include:

Overhead control - the mistakes we make, with particular attention to payroll expenses and benefits.
Holding onto the"fruits of your labor" - i.e., living on less than what you earn and strategies for achieving this goal.
Systematic investing - the efficacy of investing in both retirement plans and personally with a great deal of discussion of successful strategies, great rewards and how risk can be mitigated.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES: BOTH THE DOCTOR AND HIS OR HER CAREER-ORIENTED PROFESSIONAL STAFF REALIZE INTUITIVELY THAT THEIR ULTIMATE PROFESSIONAL AND FINANCIAL SUCCESS AS WELL AS THEIR OWN RELEVANCY IS CONNECTEDTO THE ULTIMATE SUCCESS OF THE PRACTICE.

PORTS OF CALL

San Juan, Puerto Rico

Basseterre, St. Kitts

St. Kitts stands out in the Caribbean for its dramatic topography and deep colonial history, offering a richer experience than the standard beach-only destination. The island is dominated by dormant volcanoes and lush rainforests, providing a backdrop that feels wilder and more rugged than many of its neighbors.

The premier attraction is undoubtedly Brimstone Hill Fortress National Park. A UNESCO World Heritage site, this massive British fortification sits high atop a volcanic hill. It requires a bit of a climb, but the panoramic views across the Caribbean Sea to Sint Eustatius and Saba are spectacular. It is a genuine highlight for history enthusiasts and photographers alike, well worth the entry fee and the drive.

For a more relaxed tour of the landscape, the St. Kitts Scenic Railway is unique in the region. Originally built to transport sugar cane, the double-decker train loops around the coast, offering a comfortable way to see the villages and countryside that are otherwise hard to access. Alternatively, a stop at Romney Manor offers a blend of nature and culture; the botanical gardens feature a magnificent 400-year-old Saman tree and house Caribelle Batik, where you can watch local artisans at work.

If a beach day is your priority, we advise skipping the Atlantic side and heading to the Southeast Peninsula. The drive itself is scenic, crossing the narrow isthmus with views of both oceans. South Friars Bay and Cockleshell Bay offer the best calm waters and soft sands, lined with casual beach bars facing the peak of Nevis.

Basseterre itself is a bustling, authentic Caribbean town rather than a sanitized tourist trap. While Port Zante is filled with standard duty-free shops, a walk into the town center reveals the Circus—modeled after Piccadilly in London—and Independence Square, a poignant reminder of the island's history as a former slave market. We recommend prioritizing the island tour or the peninsula beaches, using the town primarily for a brief historical stroll before returning to the ship.

St. John's, Antigua

St. John's is the vibrant gateway to Antigua, an island that offers a compelling blend of classic Caribbean leisure and significant British naval history. While the port city itself is a bustling hub of colorful colonial-era architecture and duty-free shopping at Heritage Quay, the island's true treasures require a short journey.

For anyone with an interest in history, the essential destination is Nelson's Dockyard. Located in English Harbour (a scenic 30-minute taxi ride), this meticulously restored 18th-century naval base is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the only continuously working Georgian dockyard in the world. It’s a living museum where you can walk the same cobblestones as Admiral Nelson, explore the Dockyard Museum, and enjoy lunch at a waterside café. For a breathtaking perspective, arrange for your driver to take you up to the Shirley Heights lookout for one of the most iconic panoramic views in the Caribbean.

Of course, Antigua is legendary for its beaches. While the claim of 365 beaches is a charming piece of local lore, you only need one for a perfect day. Dickenson Bay is a popular choice, offering calm waters, beach bars, and water sports. For a more serene experience, ask a driver to take you to the powdery sands of Valley Church Beach or Ffryes Beach on the southwest coast.

Our advice: Plan your day. The best of Antigua lies beyond the immediate port. A pre-arranged taxi or a shore excursion is the most efficient way to experience the island's unique combination of historical depth and stunning natural beauty.

Castries, St. Lucia

St. Lucia is defined by its dramatic topography, distinguishing it from flatter Caribbean neighbors. The island’s visual signature is the Pitons, twin volcanic spires rising from the sea—a UNESCO World Heritage site that creates one of the most spectacular backdrops in the tropics. However, visitors must understand the island's geography to maximize their time ashore.

Ships dock in Castries, located on the northwest coast, while the iconic Pitons, the drive-in volcano, and the therapeutic Sulphur Springs are located south in Soufrière. This presents a logistical reality: reaching the island's premier sights requires a commitment. The road to Soufrière is incredibly scenic but notoriously winding, taking over an hour each way. For those prone to motion sickness, or simply wanting to maximize sightseeing time, a water-based transfer or catamaran excursion is the superior choice. The reward is substantial: walking through botanical gardens, soaking in mineral-rich mud baths, and viewing the peaks from the water.

If a full day of travel feels too ambitious, the north offers excellent, accessible alternatives. Marigot Bay, a stunning natural harbor, is a short drive away and ideal for a relaxed lunch. Further north, Pigeon Island National Landmark is a standout, combining 18th-century British military ruins with approachable hiking trails and quiet beaches. Nearby Rodney Bay offers the island’s most popular stretch of sand, Reduit Beach. For a quick taste of local culture near the ship, the Castries Market remains a bustling hub for spices and local crafts, though it is best visited in the morning before the midday heat.

Bridgetown, Barbados

Barbados presents a polished and substantial Caribbean experience, anchored by its capital, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Historic Bridgetown and its Garrison offer a genuine sense of place, where British colonial architecture stands alongside vibrant Bajan life. The city core is compact enough to explore, with landmarks like the Parliament Buildings and the Careenage marina providing a backdrop that feels more like a historic town than a simple beach stop.

Beyond the city, the island's offerings are diverse. For a unique natural wonder, Harrison's Cave offers a stunning underground tram tour through crystallized limestone caverns. For a taste of the island's most famous export, a visit to the Mount Gay Rum Distillery provides both a history lesson and a tasting. Of course, the beaches are world-class. Just a short taxi ride from the port, Carlisle Bay is a magnificent crescent of white sand with calm, turquoise water, perfect for swimming and snorkeling over several shipwrecks teeming with marine life. For a more serene scene, the west coast, known as the "Platinum Coast," is lined with idyllic stretches like Paynes Bay and Mullins Beach.

Barbados is not a rugged, off-the-beaten-path destination; it is well-developed and organized. Taxis are plentiful and regulated (though it's always wise to confirm the fare beforehand). This makes it an excellent port for independent exploration, offering a rewarding balance of accessible history, natural beauty, and sophisticated relaxation.

At Sea - Cruising

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

A long stretch of white sand at Great Bay Beach in Philipsburg. Turquoise waters and beachfront hotels sit beneath rolling green hills, just a short walk from the St. Maarten cruise pier.

St. Maarten offers a unique geopolitical curiosity: a 37-square-mile island divided between the Netherlands and France. While the cruise pier in Philipsburg (the Dutch side) is often crowded with multiple mega-ships, the island’s dual personality allows for a highly customizable day if you plan strategically.

Philipsburg itself is the commercial engine. Front Street is lined with duty-free jewelry and electronics stores; while convenient for shoppers, it can feel somewhat manufactured. For a more relaxed immediate option, the boardwalk along Great Bay offers decent beach bars and a view of the ships, though the water clarity here lags behind the rest of the island.

To experience the island's true charm, cross the border to the French side (St. Martin). The atmosphere shifts perceptibly in the capital of Marigot, with its open-air markets and colonial architecture. For the sophisticated traveler, the village of Grand Case is the highlight. Known as the culinary capital of the Caribbean, it features exceptional French-Creole cuisine in open-air "lolos" (local barbecue stands) and high-end bistros alike.

Regarding beaches, you have distinct choices:

Maho Beach offers the famous, adrenaline-fueled spectacle of jumbo jets landing just overhead at Princess Juliana International Airport—it is noisy, crowded, and absolutely unique.
For a classic European beach day, head to Orient Bay on the French side for white sand and upscale beach clubs.

A critical note on logistics: Traffic on St. Maarten can be notoriously heavy, particularly in the late afternoon. If venturing to the French side, allow ample buffer time for the return trip to the Philipsburg cruise terminal.

Aerial view of Little Bay Beach in St. Maarten, featuring upscale seaside resorts and white sands. The calm, azure water and verdant mountains create a picturesque tropical shore excursion.

Wide aerial view of Philipsburg, St. Maarten, showing the colorful town nestled between the deep blue Atlantic and a bright turquoise bay, surrounded by lush green hills and the cruise port.

Aerial top-down view of a red kayak gliding through crystal-clear turquoise water in St. Maarten. The vibrant, translucent sea reveals rocky reefs below, perfect for a tranquil eco-adventure.

A golden sunset over a peaceful bay in St. Maarten, filled with sailboats and catamarans. Lush tropical gardens and a seaside resort frame the shimmering Caribbean waters at dusk.

As a value-added organizer of meetings at sea, however, we do not seek to compete with 'cruise discounters,' 'travel clubs,' or 'distressed inventory' sales operations.

PRICING SUBJECT TO CHANGE: Because this sailing is departing soon, no fares are displayed above; Call us to request a quote of current, market-rate fares. Those fares, the same as offered directly by the cruise line, are subject to change at any time until held with a deposit or full payment of the fare. Market rates are capacity and revenue controlled, do fluctuate, and can be withdrawn without notice.

CANCELLATION PENALTY POLICY WILL APPLY: We recommend Travel Insurance to protect your investment from unexpected, late cancellations.

Nov 20, 2018: 25% of total price*

Dec 05, 2018: 50% of total price*

Dec 19, 2018: 75% of total price*

Specific plan benefits may vary. Please review your plan details for more information.

What Can Travel Insurance Help Protect?

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can protect you before and during your trip—keeping you, your loved ones, and your travel budget safer. Benefits vary by plan, and these are brief descriptions. Please read your plan documents for details.

TRIP CANCELLATION

Reimburses your prepaid, non-refundable travel expenses if you need to cancel your trip due to a covered reason, such as you, a family member, or traveling companion experiencing a covered illness or injury. Examples include:

A doctor says you or a traveling companion is too sick to fly
Your parent or child requires hospitalization
You need to attend the birth of a family member’s child
You have a traffic accident (not breakdown) on the way to the airport
A storm shuts down your airport for 24 hours or more

TRIP INTERRUPTION

Reimburses your unused, non-refundable travel expenses and increased transportation costs during your trip if you have to return home early due to a covered reason, for instance when a family member has a qualifying medical emergency and needs your care. Examples include:

You have a covered illness or injury and a doctor says you must return home
A family member has a qualifying injury and needs your care
A covered emergency, like a fire or flood, makes your home uninhabitable

TRAVEL DELAY

If you have a covered delay while traveling, travel insurance can reimburse you for meals, accommodations, and transportation expenses when your trip is delayed for a minimum number of consecutive hours for a covered reason. Minimum number of hours varies by plan.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE

Reimburses your expenses related to covered medical and dental emergencies* that might occur on your trip. This benefit can be especially helpful if you have a covered emergency outside the United States, as most health insurance policies won’t cover you outside the country. Examples include:

You slip and break your ankle while sightseeing
You get food poisoning while sampling the local cuisine
You lose a filling and need immediate dental treatment*

*A sublimit and maximum apply for this benefit. Check your plan documents for details.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL TRANSPORTATION

Arranges and pays for medically necessary transportation following a covered injury or illness to the nearest appropriate medical facility to receive care and get you home after treatment.

BAGGAGE LOSS, DAMAGE, or THEFT

Reimburses the replacement of your lost, damaged, or stolen luggage and personal items while traveling.

BAGGAGE DELAY

Reimburses essential items purchased during your trip if your baggage is delayed for a minimum number of hours (varies by plan).

CHANGE FEE

Reimburses fees if you need to change your flight itinerary due to a covered reason.

Medical triage with referrals to local prescreened medical providers
Ongoing medical monitoring
Payment guarantee
Emergency medical transportation
