COURSE OVERVIEW:

This newly approved program for New Jersey dentists consists of lectures, demonstrations, online review, and clinical experiences over two weekends. Between the two sessions, two online components must be completed.

Session I (Oct 30-Nov 1)
This session will be combined with the program for New York Dentists – (see Enteral Sedation at NYU for New York Dentists)

• Incremental Dosing Online Course – this custom-tailored 2-hour, 1-session online course taught by Dr. Anthony S. Feck includes video demonstrations of incremental dosing sedation techniques, patient induction, treatment, dismissal, and a consultation with a highly phobic patient.
• Top Dose Online Course – this custom-tailored 30-minute, 1-session online course taught by Dr. Anthony S. Feck is designed to be taken after the online Incremental Dosing Course.

Session II (Nov 7-8)
You will be equipped to take the quantum leap to providing safe, effective oral conscious sedation for ASAI, ASAII, and ASAIII patients. The medically compromised patient is the fastest growing portion of the population needing sedation dentistry, and will expand the population the sedation dentist can treat. Understanding that medically complicated patients are more likely to be seeking the professional services of a sedation dentist, you will learn to provide care for the large number of patients that are currently having trouble accessing care. The goal is to understand issues critical in the management of a markedly expanded population of patients and to provide safe sedation solutions to selected ASAIII patients.

The course utilizes an interactive case management approach to formulate practical dental management solutions for patients who present with: Severe anxiety; History of difficulty with sedation; Cardiovascular disease: hypertension, angina and MI; Diabetes mellitus; Bleeding disorders; Hepatitis and cirrhosis; COPD and asthma; Sleep apnea; Renal disease

• Advanced sedation protocols
• Incremental dosing of sedation medications
• Osteonecrosis of the jaw in patients and bisphosphonate therapy
• Concerns about antibiotic therapy
• Practical guidelines for use of analgesics and narcotics
• 25 “real-life” cases you have to manage
