Course Description
Content Summary: Have you given up your
sedation permit because of the myriad of mandated dental board requirements? Do
you need a refresher course on the basic concepts of administering local
anesthesia in dental patients? Is missing an inferior alveolar dental block
on a daily basis causing you and your staff issues regarding treatment? If
so, there is no need to fear, because this continuing dental education
program will boost your local anesthesia skills so that missing blocks and
not infiltrating solution properly will be a thing of the past. This program
will review the basic pharmacology of local anesthetics, and their
application for a specific type of patient. Clinicians can obtain profound
local anesthesia in their patients by simply reviewing the basic tenets in
this program. The course will display two patient types exhibiting
problematic local anesthesia issues and to demonstrate how dentists can
overcome these problems. Two clinical cases will be presented to help the
participant compare and contrast problems relating to missed inferior
alveolar blocks and infiltration issues. |
