seek dental care in a private practice is greater than ever.
This course reviews the science and definitions of these
medical challenges while exploring techniques to guide dental professionals and
patients through a successful dental appointment. Learnings include patient assessment,
behavior guidance and treatment techniques which include implementable technologies. Examples of homecare regimens for caretakers,
