DOCS Education offers N₂O sedation training so you can administer safe and comfortable dental care to adult patients. By using single-dose oral sedation in conjunction with nitrous oxide, you can offer greater benefits to anxious patients than using either one separately. In this comprehensive 2-day light sedation course, you’ll learn how to combine these two time-tested methods to better serve your patients.

Medical emergencies can and do happen in the dental environment. Approximately 75% of these can be prevented through physical evaluation of the prospective dental patient, using a systematic review of the patient’s medical history and recording of vital signs.
In addition to prevention and preparation, Dr. Stanley Malamed will cover the P-C-A-B-D protocol for medical emergencies in the dentist's office and address the most common occurring incidents, including respiratory distress, altered consciousness, drug allergy or overdose, chest pain, and cardiac arrest.
