With the increasing complexities of patient care, many technologies have been developed and redesigned to aid in the implementation of dental hygiene care.

By the end of this course, participants will understand the rationale for using air-powered debridement, the fundamental techniques used in air-powered debridement, and understand the current research being conducted with air-powered debridement.
