In affiliation with Idaho State University and Meharry Medical College, DOCS Education is excited to offer this unique and time-saving IV Sedation Certification course. This course includes 60-hours of didactic instruction (home-study and live), plus a minimum of 20 live-patient experiences required by the ADA guidelines and most state dental boards. Upon completion of this innovative program, you’ll have the knowledge, clinical skills, and permit qualifications to properly select and safely administer effective parenteral (IV) and enteral (oral) minimal and moderate sedation in an outpatient dental setting.

Learn to care for anxious and fearful patients using oral sedatives. This gateway course is one of our most popular; it provides the necessary training to administer sedation to healthy adults. Sessions are taught by renowned faculty who are also practicing doctors — a Harvard Medical School professor and distinguished practicing dentists — and cover everything you need to know to integrate sedation into your practice. Class format consists of informative and engaging lectures and discussions.

Your sedation dentistry education doesn't simply end after attending one course. DOCS Education's Oral Sedation Recertification course is the best way to keep your skills fresh – and fulfill CE requirements. Updating your skills and protocols ensures that you are providing your patients with the most advanced, comprehensive care available. That's why DOCS Education recommends that all dentists participate in recertification courses at least once every two years.

You want to provide your patients with the safest, most-advanced, comprehensive care available. Plus, if your state requires you to obtain a permit to offer Oral Conscious Sedation (Minimal Sedation or Moderate Enteral Sedation), you must meet your state’s recertification qualifications.

This class fulfills 7 ½ CE credit hours and completely updates and refreshes attendees on the pharmacology and proven DOCS Education oral sedation protocols that you must have to keep your patients safe. You'll have 3.5 hours of online pre-course study followed by 4 hours live on Friday or Saturday!

Individuals suffering from chronic medical problems are one of the fastest-growing segments of your patient population. These patients benefit from sedation dentistry, as it is the safest and least stressful way to receive care. Participate in the Master Series – Advanced Sedation, presented by world-renowned doctors Tony Feck and Leslie Fang, and learn to safely manage sedation and non-sedation appointments of ASA III+ patients with asthma, diabetes, bleeding disorders, and more in this two-day intensive didactic and hands-on program. Adult Oral Sedation Dentistry or current sedation permit is a prerequisite for this course.

You may already be doing oral sedation and be required to take a periodic review course.  Even if you aren’t, it’s important to review and be updated on the latest and greatest information on oral sedation dentistry to promote improved knowledge and safety of the patient experience.

As a practitioner of oral sedation dentistry, you know it's critical to continually refresh and improve your knowledge of pharmacology.
