Dental professionals must frequently draw upon their knowledge of pharmacology
for optimal care of today’s medically complex dental patients. However,
pharmacology often constitutes only a small portion of most dental degree
programs. With a relatively brief exposure to this vast subject, many dental
professionals simply cannot keep up with the latest trends in disease state
management. This comprehensive program explores the dental implications of
the prescription medications, non-prescription medications, herbal products,
nutritional supplements and substances of abuse most frequently used by patients.
Participants receive this essential information in a format which is not only
practical and applicable but also highly entertaining for the entire dental team.
