Improving Patient Care by Improving Practice Performance
by Lance Jacob with Tim Lott
This course explains why it's important
for dentists to understand how their practice is
performing and how that performance affects
patient care. Topics covered include production
versus collections, and their relation to cash
flow; expense classifications and overhead;
revenues and overhead; and why it's important
to be able to compare your practice to industry
benchmarks.

To Pull or Not to Pull:
Apical Surgery Versus
Implant Replacement
by Dr. Daniel G. Pompa
With the introduction of new surgical
approaches in apical surgery, and a systematic
approach to the diagnosis and treatment of
compromised teeth, clinicians should be
able to more accurately determine the longterm prognosis of a surgical, nonsurgical or
replacement treatment option and determine
its potential success by taking this course.

The Standard of Care (What Is It?
What Is It Not? Key Information
Both Specialists and General Dentists Need to Know)
by John Dovgan
This course will educate you on the definition
of the "standard of care" and how to meet it,
as well as key legal terms you need to know.
Guidelines are given for what is looked for
in dental board cases, malpractice cases, and
local anesthetic and sedation mistakes that
dentists make. Learn which lines should not be
crossed and typical treatment notes you should
incorporate into practice.

Fundamentals of Fixed Prosthodontics
by Dr. Lane Ochi
A masterpiece! Successfully treating patients
with fixed prosthodontics requires a mastery
of materials and mechanical concepts, as well
as a respect for tooth structure. We need to be

aware of the interactions between preparation
design, margin configuration, core buildups
or posts, and the luting agent. After viewing
this course, you'll be able to identify the causes
of failures and prevent them from recurring.

Appropriate Analgesic
Prescribing for the General Dentist
by Dr. Mark Donaldson
Wouldn't it be great to be known as the dentist
who offers excellent pain-free, postoperative care
without the use of narcotics? Wouldn't you
like to be more confident in evidence-based,
guideline-driven prescription writing? This is
the program to help you be just that.

Pediatric Dentistry:
Anesthesia, Pulp Therapy
and Stainless Steel Crowns
by Dr. Josh Wren
With the Affordable Care Act mandating
dental coverage for those 19 and younger, more
than 3 million pediatric patients will be added
to 150,000 dental practices. Treating children
may become a necessity for your dental office.
Pulp therapy and stainless steel crowns are
procedures often considered complex when
performed on pediatric patients; this course
will alleviate any fear of the unknown that leads
to this misconception. Indirect pulp therapy,
pulpotomy and pulpectomy are discussed,
with emphasis on diagnosis and technique.
Stainless steel crowns are also discussed, with
procedural steps explained and shown. The
course also discusses Wren's process for using
nitrous oxide, appropriate topical anesthesia and
local anesthesia to achieve painless injections.
