Dental Emergencies: Adults and Children
Live, Interactive Webcast Continuing Education Course - 3 Hours Credit
Instructor: Dr. Kenneth Colerick
Course Description:
Dental professionals need to be equipped to deal with different forms of dental emergencies to teeth, bone and oral soft tissues.

This course will look at how to assess various forms of emergencies and deal with them appropriately.

After completing this course, the clinician will be able to:
- Diagnose and treat the emergency patient.

- Have a better understanding of irreversible pulpitis.
- Handle fractured teeth.
- Replace exfoliated teeth.
- Treat and cure necrotizing ulcerated gingivitis.
