Identifying disease at its earliest stages is essential to prevent the progression of oral and systemic diseases. Proper classification of our patients’ risk factors and potential rate of progression enables the dental hygienist’s role to be fully maximized. This creates a practice that is in full alignment with the standard of care, as well as a thriving practice with raving patients.

Course Objectives

  • Access the 2017 APP Periodontal Classifications and review case studies
  • Discuss treatment recommendations based on patients’ stage and grade
  • Evaluate communication techniques to increase patient acceptance
  • Discover common billing errors that prevent insurance coverage
  • Review new and innovative ways to improve the chairside experience for both the patient and the clinician; including voice recognition technologies, instruments and new homecare items that will optimize patient compliance
  • Identify best practices of power instrumentation and latest hand scaling techniques
