DEN 740B Introduction to Comprehensive Care V

Credits: 1 to 2
The DEN 740 series introduces students to the School of Dentistry predoctoral patient care clinic. In the fall term, students are scheduled for regular rotations through the predoctoral clinic with increasing responsibilities as the course progresses. In the fall term, multiple experiential small group workshops studying Emotional Intelligence, Radiology Interpretation, a series of Interprofessional Primary Care Medicine workshops led by an MD, and a collaborative workshop with Bio-Medical sciences in the Gross Anatomy Facility will help prepare students to safely treat patients in the clinic as well as think critically about the treatment they are rendering. Students will provide limited aspects of patient care including taking patient radiographs, providing periodontal treatment and may begin administering local anesthetic toward the end of the term. This course series is intended to provide a seamless transition into the clinic environment at the School of Dentistry.
