Any dentist performing sedation or providing care to a sedated patient should be able to provide airway management and ventilation for a patient encountering respiratory distress. The goal of the basic airway course is to educate the practitioner in basic airway assessment via history and physical assessment of the patient and to review relevant anatomy, physiology, and equipment. The practitioner will learn the motor skills necessary to initiate basic airway management with regard to relieving obstruction, insertion of airway adjuncts, mask ventilation, and intubation. Motor skills will be developed under supervision utilizing simulation. Participants will complete a post-course evaluation of their airway skills.

This two-day course will focus on the technology utilized to plan and order (“smile in a box”) CBCT-guided templates and provisional restorations for treating the full-arch patient. Participants will be given presentations demonstrating the step-wise patient evaluation and planning process, followed by hands-on sessions executing the principles taught. Participants will also experience using the co-DiagnostiX software to import a DICOM file and merge it with a dual-scan prosthesis. In addition, techniques for segmenting and planning implant placement and abutment selection will be covered. On a patient-simulated model, the participant will use CBCT-generated stackable templates to place four dental implants, followed by abutment placement and indexing of a pre-fabricated interim restoration. All course participants will keep the hands-on model as a valuable patient education tool for their practice.
