$79.00 for Dentists and $59.00 for RDH/Auxiliaries

Sports play a very important part in the lives of many of our patients. Not just high level and professional athletes, but kids and weekend warriors as well. Most players put themselves at risk of dental injuries when participating in these activities. Sports dentistry is the part of sports medicine that, in addition to other things, deals with the treatment and prevention of these injuries.

This presentation will make the listener comfortable dealing with trauma to the permanent teeth and familiarize everyone with the 2020 International Association of Dental Traumatology’s Guidelines for Dental Trauma. We will discuss the history, functions and effectiveness of the modern athletic mouthguard. We will also touch on several topics where sports and dentistry connect for the health and safety of todays athlete, such as nutrition and sports drinks, smokeless tobacco use and how oral health is being investigated as to its impact on athletic performance.

$79.00 for Dentists and $59.00 for RDH/Auxiliaries

This live webinar will provide a clear understanding of the demographics of patients that will occur during the next twenty years, along with the types of diseases/disorders that will become a focus for practitioners. The population will continue to age, and age-related, chronic diseases will become a focus for healthcare. This course will discuss autoimmune-type diseases, chronic age-related disorders and the cultural implications of health issues in a multi -complex society as these demographics continue to change. Varied product use for patients, coping strategies, exercise and nutritional components will change as well. Cancer considerations, oral disease states and the pathology related to these will be a part of this course. So many diseases affect the oral tissues and may actually be found in the mouth before other systemic signs are identified. Dentists and dental hygienists are in prime positions to identify these disease states, treat patients and refer when the occasion arises.

Temporomandibular Disorders are a group of conditions, often painful, that affects the Temporomandibular Joint and the muscles of mastication. It has been estimated by the National Institutes of Health that approximately 10 million people are affected. As dental team members, many are unaware of the signs, symptoms, and treatments available for these patients. This course will provide dental team members, who may have only the basic knowledge of the TM joint, with a very detailed and informed presentation involving the structure and function of the joint, etiological factors of disease, examination and evaluation methods used, and treatment modalities offered. The role of the dental team in TMD will also be discussed. A personal discussion will also be offered.

The roles that our dental professions serve for law enforcement and other forensic sciences continue to evolve. Forensic odontology contributes a scientifically sound method human identification, be it a single individual or a multiple fatality incident. We serve in critical positions of intervention when we are trained to recognize abuse, even in subtle, less obvious manifestations in the patients we see, our families, friends and communities. Forensic odontology serves missing person and cold case investigations, and in matters of civil litigation that examines the parameters or standards of providing dental care within the licensee’s scope of practice and much more!

3 CEUs

$79.00 for Dentists and $59.00 for RDH/Auxiliaries

This course will provide the oral health care team with tools to help identify oral potentially malignant disorders (PMDs). These PMDs are almost always present and visible before an HPV-negative oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) develops; therefore, detection of these PMDs is vital in improving the lives of those affected by PMDs and oral cancer in this country. Though the rate of HPV-negative OSCC has declined as the number of Americans who smoke has declined, the survival rate remains the same: overall, around 50% of these patients will succumb to their disease within 5 years. We will spend a great deal of time discussing leukoplakia, as this is the most common way in which oral PMDs present. The goal of the oral health care professional is to "catch" oral cancer before it develops; therefore, we will primarily discuss how to manage leukoplakia and what we can do for our patients to help lower their risk for developing an OSCC.

In treating today’s periodontal patient successfully, the clinician must customize a treatment plan that goes beyond the removal of plaque and calculus. Achieving excellent clinical outcomes involves assessing for systemic issues, communicating and customizing home care according to the patient’s level of understanding and ability to perform home care procedures, and choosing appropriate adjuncts to care. In this two-part live webinar, you will learn effective strategies for treating the periodontal patient from A-Z. You will gain a greater understanding of disease pathogenesis and progression and learn why an effective antimicrobial approach is an important part of disease control. We will explore the multi-faceted treatment planning approach that includes scheduling and coding, adjuncts to care, and choosing appropriate home care aids. We will examine documentation for periodontal care and explore strategies for dealing with informed consent and refusal of definitive care.

Human Trafficking: Understanding the Issues

Presented by:

3 CEUs

$79.00 for Dentists and $59.00 for RDH/Auxiliaries

Human Trafficking is a $150 billion criminal industry and has continued to increase over the past few years. This live webinar is designed to awaken the dental community to the possibility of human trafficking involving patients seeking care in a dental facility. Many clues may be evident and exhibited by a patient or even by the perpetrator who may be accompanying the victim. Many children have been brought to the USA by traffickers and the likely event of seeing these victims in your office is going to increase. When a victim cannot perform their duties for a trafficker because of pain or trauma-related injury, the person will be brought to a facility for evaluation. Unless the healthcare professional is aware of the signs, the opportunity to assist the victims may not be recognized. Communication with the victim is key in gaining trust and understanding the issues involved in each circumstance. Certain tactics used by a perpetrator may result in head and neck injury to a victim and are visible to the dental professional during a thorough exam. These tissue findings, injuries will be discussed as items that will get your attention. The protocol for reporting human trafficking will be presented with excellent handouts for the participant on dental findings and seeking help for a victim. Many states are now requiring a course in this subject matter and all dental personnel should be aware of human trafficking clues, how to communicate with the patient, assist in seeking help for the victim and recognizing abuse.

Only, to find out that they may need treatment for another mucosal disease instead of or in addition to lichen planus.

Human Trafficking: Understanding the Issues

Presented by:

$79.00 for Dentists and $59.00 for RDH/Auxiliaries

Human Trafficking is a $150 billion criminal industry and has continued to increase over the past few years. This live webinar is designed to awaken the dental community to the possibility of human trafficking involving patients seeking care in a dental facility. Many clues may be evident and exhibited by a patient or even by the perpetrator who may be accompanying the victim. Many children have been brought to the USA by traffickers and the likely event of seeing these victims in your office is going to increase. When a victim cannot perform their duties for a trafficker because of pain or trauma-related injury, the person will be brought to a facility for evaluation. Unless the healthcare professional is aware of the signs, the opportunity to assist the victims may not be recognized. Communication with the victim is key in gaining trust and understanding the issues involved in each circumstance. Certain tactics used by a perpetrator may result in head and neck injury to a victim and are visible to the dental professional during a thorough exam. These tissue findings, injuries will be discussed as items that will get your attention. The protocol for reporting human trafficking will be presented with excellent handouts for the participant on dental findings and seeking help for a victim. Many states are now requiring a course in this subject matter and all dental personnel should be aware of human trafficking clues, how to communicate with the patient, assist in seeking help for the victim and recognizing abuse.
