Foundation Dentistry

On this foundation course we will focus on the 5 main competencies of veterinary dentistry:

  • Diagnosing dental disease in a consult room with specific emphasis on Periodontal disease (Pathology and treatment)

  • Making most of your COHAT: Intra-oral Radiography, Scaling, Charting

  • Planning your “pain free” patient: Pain relief pre,-intra,- and post op with special emphasis on nerve blocks

  • Extraction indication: Do I stay or do I go?

  • Surgical extraction of single and easy multi-rooted teeth (canine, incisors and first premolars)

This course will focus on taking the proper first steps in your dentistry journey with a highly experienced and skilled dentistry practitioner. You will be guided through the importance of dental charting and comprehensive dental COHAT, analgesia in dentistry patients to deciding factors in extractions.
