Course Description:
By learning to safely incorporate oral conscious sedation into your dental services, you’ll expand your skills and ultimately provide enhanced care to your patients. The sedation protocols we teach encompass sophisticated administration methodologies and proven pharmacological techniques, as well as patient assessment and emergency management. Learn traditional and new oral sedation protocols that are taught by dentists who practice what they teach, and a board-certified internal medicine physician who teaches patient assessment and pharmacology.
