"WHAT IS IT & HOW DO I USE IT?"
Today's Dental
Products & Treatment Options
4 CE Credits
Tuition: $79
Speaker: TRICIA OSUNA, RDH, BS
As professionals providing health services, we should be at the
pulse of clinical devices and treatment, while being able to
recommend product protocols for use in the office. The process of
care (assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning, implementation and
evaluation) requires us to understand what the products are and how
to use the products. In addition, knowledge of contemporary
treatment options, how to implement the procedures and evaluate what
is and what is not working for us as individuals and as clinicians
is of utmost importance.
This course will provide information for the clinicians to be able
to:
-
Recognize improvements on products utilized by dental professionals
-
Select materials and products for dental hygiene therapy
-
Select appropriate patient home care products
-
Select options in appropriate delivery of various therapeutics
-
Communicate effectively to patients & assist in the business of the
dental practice
-
Recognize & evaluate changes to implement in their office
-
Discuss strategies that incorporate efficiency in patient treatment
for a more productive dental hygiene schedule
The
course will also cover communication styles and motivational hints
to bring acceptance of the challenges of the new era of dental
therapy and treatment to your patients and team members.
