What potential complications lurk behind the patient’s medical history that may impact dental therapy, alter treatment plans and perhaps even result in medical emergencies? Armed only with a summary of past and current disease states and a list of current medications, will you be able to decipher the clues, solve the mystery and employ innovative treatment strategies to save the day? This program will provide practical tools every dental professional can use to assist them in interpreting the information about medications, supplements and substances of abuse contained in a patient’s medical history as well as understanding their impact on dental treatment planning and patient care.
