Offer Customized Care to Unique Patients
Like adults, teens suffer from dental anxieties(116) that can lead to poor dental care. However, they have different physiological and developmental needs that make their treatment very different.
This popular course is specifically designed with four different protocols to meet the unique needs of 13- to 18-year-olds(67). We'll show you how to train your team and set up your practice with very little investment in new dental office equipment or materials.
The Teen Sedation Dentistry instructor is a leading pediatric dentist. You'll learn to recognize which teens are good candidates for oral sedation and how to help this large underserved age group.

Why should I bring my team?
"I brought some of the team with me, including two hygienists and our assistant manager—all of whom are extremely reluctant to try new things. I sat at lunch today listening with amazement as they told me what we need to do to implement this in our practice! Your enthusiasm is infectious, and I will be sending the rest of the team to this course!" - Karen Harriman, DDSDOCS Education considers the dental team a vital part of good patient care and urges every dentist to bring at least one staff member to courses. States differ in their sedation regulations. Visit SedationRegulations.com to learn more.
