Limited to 20 Participants Cost $25, must register at www.uda.org

Barney Olsen, DDS, MS

8:30–11:30 am Room: 151 A, B, C Audience: D, A

This hands–on learning lab will be interactive requiring you to learn 6 important skills in Pediatric Dentistry in a lab setting: 1) Intra osseous anesthesia. 2) Hall Crown fitting and placement. 3) When and how to use SDF. 4) How to assess caries risk on each patient and how that will guide your restorative therapy. 5) How and when to do minimally invasive dentistry. 6) How to fit and construct 5–minute space maintainers. We will be working on tables in groups of 5.

Learning Objectives:

• You will demonstrate intra osseous anesthesia access on a chicken leg. • You will be able to access the risk of each patient and how that will affect restorative dentistry. • You will learn and demonstrate proper band fitting and construction of 5–minute spacers.

Anesthesia and Sedation in Dentistry Mitch Duckworth, DDS

8:30–11:30 am (continues at 2:00) Room: 251 D, E, F Audience: D

This course will satisfy DOPL sedation requirement for minimal and moderate sedation license levels.

Anesthesia proudly got its start in Dentistry. More and more patients are looking for doctors that can provide sedation or anesthesia for their dental procedures. With sophisticated monitors, higher standards of care and medications with extremely safe drug profiles, every dentist can meet the expectations of their patients.

“Sedate or don’t sedate”, that is the question… and we will answer it. One of the most important aspects of providing sedation is the pre–anesthetic assessment. This includes matching the correct type and level of anesthesia to the patient and the procedure being performed. During this course we will broadly discuss every level of anesthesia from iatrosedation to general anesthesia.

Learning Objectives:

• Learn different anesthetic modalities, when to exercise prudence and when to “punt” a case. • Review scenarios of the common sedation related emergencies, and how to manage them promptly. • Review important cardiac and respiratory physiology and related anesthesia monitoring. • Review respiratory systems and airway management, “Ten Minutes Saves A Life” and other cognitive aids to assist in an emergency.
