Looking through the lenses of our loupes, everyone’s mouths may appear the same; teeth, lips, gums, tongue. But a zoomed out view, putting the entire patient to our focal point, is just as important as zooming in.

With a more well-rounded and current approach to patient care, we can achieve a higher level of patient satisfaction and compliance and a lower level of dental anxiety.

Upon completion of the course, the hygienist will be able to:
1. Define and relate cultural and global competency as it pertains to clinical and public health dentistry today
2. Understand the importance of current social awareness in clinical practice.
3. Articulate a more well-rounded approach to conversations with patients
4. Adventure into the world of National Mission Work and Global Dentistry through Mission Trips
