OVERVIEW

Oral Sedation Recertification - Half Day is organized by DOCS Education and will be held on Oct 07, 2023.

Course Description:
Introducing the Oral Sedation Recertification program from DOCS Education, created to help you expand your skill set, increase protocols, and maintain your state’s sedation dentistry recertification requirements.

Provide your patients with the highest level of care through up-to-date knowledge of sedation techniques, risk assessment, and emergency management.
