On Demand: Shedding Light on Periodontal Pathogens (CAD)

1.5 CE CREDITS  

EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVE:
Diode lasers have revolutionized the field of dentistry and have had a profound impact on both oral and systemic health. Research has increasingly highlighted the significant impact that oral health can have on several systemic conditions, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, pregnancy complications, and depression to name a few. Understanding and prioritizing the oral systemic connection is crucial and underscores the importance of proactively treating our patients in a manner that addresses both oral and systemic wellness. Join Beth and Kerry as they explore the multiple benefits of implementing diode lasers procedures into the dental practice’s non-surgical periodontal program and discover how the use of diode lasers in dentistry represent a significant advancement in technology.  Beth and Kerry will review and demonstrate how to use the laser for multiple functions including treatment of oral lesions, laser bacterial reduction and laser assisted periodontal therapy. This course will highlight how the laser can elevate the dental hygiene department and benefit patients in numerous ways.

COURSE OBJECTIVES:

  • Discover the evidence supporting diode lasers as an effective adjunct for non-surgical periodontal therapy.
  • Discuss how clinical assessment clues can help identify patients who may benefit from laser therapy given their health history, risk factors, and bacterial profile.
  • Explore the oral-systemic connection between pathogenic bacteria and the health of our clients and how we can target them with a minimally invasive approach.
  • Gain insight and be able to identify specific bacteria and their contribution to dysbiosis and potential periodontal involvement or advancement.
  • Understand the diode laser functions available for the dental hygiene department.
