Course Summary:  This continuing education program satisfies Rule 110 by the Texas State Board of Dental Examiners, and other state dental boards, requiring that all practitioners, in order to keep their Enteral Sedation permit current, document successful completion of a continuing education course every two years. This course meets the requirements for Level 1 and Level 2 re-permits. Emergency preparation and management is extremely important in the safe management of a non-sedated and sedated patient.  In-office preparation including required emergency practice sessions, medications and adjunctive equipment will be discussed.  Airway management is extremely important so management during the procedure will be shown.

Course Fulfillment: 

This hybrid course is designed to satisfy sedation permit renewal requirements for states requiring up to 8 hours of anesthesia specific continuing education.  It will provide 8 hours as a partial fulfillment for states requiring more than 8 hours (combination of live 4 hours and 4 hours online preparation). Online preparatory material (4 hours) will be sent prior to the program and need to be successfully completed prior to the live webcast. References and additional resources will be provided with the study modules. Reviewed/Updated July 8, 2022.
