What’s In Your Dental Hygiene Treatment Room?

Innovative Products for the Dental Hygienist: Facing the Future Today!

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

Dental hygiene education is never complete. It is a lifelong learning process that occurs everyday. The dental hygienist is not only a clinician but also must accept the responsibility of becoming a researcher and informed educator for their patients. Our patients want and expect to receive optimal dental hygiene care that includes specific product recommendations and treatment with cutting edge products and devices.To provide optimal dental hygiene care to our patients, we must keep up with the rapidly changing body of knowledge that is constantly affected by new technology.

This course provides a current review of the latest and greatest technology, products and devices that are aggressively promoted to the dental hygienist. The course format will provide an opportunity for participants to have a hands-on experience with many of the products and devices.
