An introduction to oral sedatives and using nitrous oxide/oxygen sedation will be included. Participants will learn how to organize and prepare the office for an organized response to a medical emergency and how to assist in the management of medical and sedation emergencies. On Saturday morning, there is a four-hour workshop that allows hands-on training for the dental assistant.
