SEDATION & ANESTHESIA Course for DENTAL PROFESSIONALS

Are you administering minimal, conscious/moderate, or deep sedation? General Anesthesia? Regulation now requires all auxiliary personnel assisting their doctor in the administration or monitoring of anesthesia to have documentation that such personnel have complied with education requirements listed in 18 VAC 60-21-260 (www.dhp.virginia.gov/dentistry).

An initial certification program will be 8 hours; subsequently 4 hours every 2 years. This is consistent with the renewal cycle of every 2 years like the BLS recertification. This course also qualifies for CEU credits for renewal of dentists required to maintain their state anesthesia permit.

The Next Anesthesia and Sedation course for Dental Professionals will be in Spring 2021. DATE TO BE DETERMINED 

Melvin L. Ford III, D.D.S. and Jonathan L. Wong, D.M.D. will be working together to provide the attendees with the proper education to obtain certification. This course qualifies for CEU credits for renewal of dentist required to maintain their state anesthesia permit.
