SUMMARY:MDDS Presents: HANDS-ON Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen Administration Training
DESCRIPTION:HANDS-ON Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen Administration Training\nPresented by Dr. Jeffrey Young \nAnxiety and pain are two of the main obstacles to the acceptance of dental care.

The goals of anxiolysis\, including clinical applications\, indications\, advantages/disadvantages and biohazards of administration will be presented. The monitoring and recognition of potential complications will be discussed. \nA review of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen equipment and technique for safe administration will be presented followed by a demonstration of the administration and use of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen inhalation equipment in a dental clinic setting. Participants will then practice administration and monitoring using actual inhalation equipment. \nThis is a one-day course with approximately five (5) hours of classroom instruction followed by two (2) hours of clinical demonstration and practice. At the end of this course\, participants will clearly understand the indications for use of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen and be able to provide safe administration and monitoring. \nObjectives \n\nDiscuss and understand the basic pharmacology and effects of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen\nReview the anesthesia continuum and the Colorado State Board of Dentistry regulations regarding the administration and monitoring of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen in the dental office\nKnow the goals of anxiolysis including advantages and disadvantages of inhalation administration\nDiscuss indications and contraindications for safe administration of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen\nUnderstand how to monitor patients and recognize potential complications of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen\nReview the inhalation equipment used for administration of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen in dental offices\nBecome proficient in administration and monitoring of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen by practicing with inhalation equipment in a clinical setting\n\nDr. Jeffrey Young earned his DDS from the University of Iowa and is a retired Army Colonel.

That must have been the one class you missed in dental school! Don’t worry\, I’ve got you covered. \nLeadership is not a trait you are born with. Leadership requires skills that we develop and hone over time.

Most recently\, she was the CEO of The Pankey Institute for approximately eight years. During her time in dentistry\, Ricki has had the unique opportunity to learn the laboratory and clinical aspects of the profession. She has successfully turned around organizations that struggled with sustainability in changing markets. In addition\, she has turned lagging organizations into thriving organizations and developed teams who demonstrated a commitment and culture which bolstered the organizations. As a former CEO and now a coach\, she helps others make the most of their strengths to succeed. Ricki partners with dentists and dental executives to identify what’s really important and to hone the behaviors and thinking that support achieving their personal and practice goals. \nDate: Thursday\, March 16\, 2023 \nTime: 6:30pm – 7:30pm MST \nLocation: Virtual via Zoom \nRate:\n$0 – CDA/MDDS members\n$25 – Non-CDA/MDDS members \nCE Credits: 1 \nFormat: Virtual Interactive Lecture \n2 Easy Ways to Register\nOnline – available 24 hours/day\nClick here to register online \nPhone-In\nAvailable Monday – Friday 8:00am – 5:00pm at (303) 488-9700 \nCancellation Policy\nCancellations will be accepted and are entitled to a refund provided they are received at MDDS by the cancellation deadline of each course.
