Time	Title	Credits
09:30 AM - 12:00 PM CT	The Paradigm Shift- Reimagining Your Dental Hygiene Appointment	2.50

Overview: Avoid common problems of disease recognition using outdated principles for diagnosing periodontal disease Use the most current equipment and technology to effectively treat patients with various levels of disease Demonstrate effective techniques during manual and ultrasonic instrumentation to enhance the preservation of tooth structure Incorporate technologies that facilitate removal of calculus and enhance the disruption of biofilm to achieve successful treatment outcomes Be empowered to treat patients with a futuristic approach to providing care Brief description: Can you imagine a dental hygiene appointment without the use of hand instruments that yields greater treatment outcomes for your patients? With this course, Dr. Joy helps you to reimagine your dental hygiene appointment by discussing the possibilities of achieving success through innovation. In this class, Dr. Joy will address current paradigms related to diagnosing and treating diseases of the periodontium using the new AAP Periodontal Classification System. Dr. Joy will focus on the role of biofilm and the importance of preservation of tooth structure to achieve greater treatment outcomes. She will also present new technology that will enable the dental hygienist to provide effective therapy without the use of hand instruments based on evidence-based research. This technology will not only enhance the patient and operator experience but will allow the innovative dental hygienist to reimagine the implementation of their care. Attendees will learn about innovation in intraoral scanning, radiography, ultrasonic instrumentation, air polishing and laser techniques including tips on grasps, stroke dynamics, pressure and fulcrums. The program will also focus on the essentials of ergonomics, including hand instrumentation updates (for patients where ultrasonic technology is contraindicated). Attendees will be armed with the most current knowledge of advances in equipment, technology, and techniques.

01:00 PM - 02:30 PM ET	You’re Biased: Now What! Implicit Bias Training for the Dental Professional	1.50

Overview: Define implicit bias and the connection with the human brain Explain the most common forms of biases Implement strategies to combat implicit bias to help yield better patient health outcomes Brief description: The human brain can process 11 million bits of information every second, but our conscious mind can only handle 40-50 pieces of that information, making us 99% unconscious in our thinking [NPR]. What does that mean. We are all biased. Implicit Bias can lead to negative health outcomes for minorities in health care and can be dangerous in life-or-death situations. This statement “everyone has biases” often makes people feel attacked, but the good news is by acknowledging biases, they can be changed over time with intention and training. This course brings awareness to a subject that is often misunderstood.

03:00 PM - 04:00 PM CT	Public Health Dental Hygienists Support Session-3PM	1.00

Overview: Introduction: The PHDH training began in 2020 but the journey of this model started years before. By the conclusion of this session the attendee will 1) know the multiple coalition partners who initiated the Public Health Dental Hygienist model. 2) understand the PHDH statute regulations in the Illinois Dental Practice Act 3) recognize the difference between providing care as a PHDH vs an RDH Presenter: Laura Scully Credits: 1.00 Course Contact: mail@idha.net Course Categories: Dental Public / Community Health, Issues, Care in Non-Traditional Settings Provider Approval: A person, firm or association approved by Section 1220.140 & 1220.250 of Illinois http://www.ilga.gov/commission/jcar/admincode/068/068012200A01400R.html Educational Type: Live Educational Method: Lecture Prerequisites: none Sponsor(s): None Conflict of Interest Disclosure: None All CE Zoom related support: support.cezoom.com
03:00 PM - 04:00 PM CT	Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) - Workshop-3PM	1.00

Overview: This workshop will outline the benefits of AIRFLOW®, PERIOFLOW®, and PIEZON® technologies and their role in the GUIDED BIOFILM THERAPY (GBT) protocol. GBT is a paradigm shift for non-surgical and preventive hygiene therapies that are minimally invasive and maximally preventive. GBT allows practitioners to provide individualized care that will engage patient compliance through the educational component of GBT. GBT is aligned with the educational methodology dental hygienists are taught in their curriculum, ensuring that the standard of care is maintained in private practice. The minimally invasive approach and technologies of GBT improve clinical endpoints, enhance the patient experience, and require less ergonomic impact on the provider. By the end of the workshop, attendees will be able to:  Understand the impact of the oral microbiome on oral and systemic diseases.  Comprehend the Assessment, Disclosing, Motivation, AIRFLOW®, PERIOFLOW®, PIEZON®, Check, and Recare phases of the GBT workflow in professional dental hygiene therapy.  Compare and contrast the strategies for biofilm disclosing agents to benefit patient education, treatment efficiency, and minimal invasiveness.  Learn the practice, patient, and provider benefits of GBT.  Hands-on simulation of AIRFLOW®, PERIOFLOW®, and PIEZON® technologies.
