Commercial Support: Hundreds of Pearls, L.L.C. and Dr. Michael Curtis did not receive any commercial support from any entity during the writing of these materials. Course Content: Patients want a pain-free experience. They judge a dentist's competency by his or her ability to provide gentle care and comfortable numbing. Painful injections and hygiene visits make patients lose trust in a dental practice. Diminished confidence on the part of patients spells disaster for dentists and results in lower case acceptance, broken appointments, and lost referrals. Chapter 3 of Dr. Michael Curtis' Anesthesia & Pain Relief offers useful tips and tricks to help dentists provide comfortable anesthesia delivery and satisfy a patient's need for soothing care. Dr. Curtis also imparts useful information to make the most frequent procedure in a general practice - hygiene - less stressful and more comfortable. When dentists and their teams gain patient trust, everyone benefits! About the Instructor: Michael Curtis, DMD is the founder, editor, and president of Hundreds of Pearls.

Commercial Support: Hundreds of Pearls, L.L.C. and Dr. Michael Curtis did not receive any commercial support from any entity during the writing of these materials. Course Content: In Chapter 4 of Anesthesia & Pain Relief, Dr. Curtis illustrates how to make patients feel relaxed, cared for, and confident of a dentist's abilities. It has been said that it is more important for a patient to feel understood than to understand a dentist's recommendations. Simply put, making patients feel comfortable, delivering undivided attention, and expressing an interest in their interests elevate dentists in the eyes of patients. Dr. Curtis stresses the power of psychology and the importance of people skills. Patient/dentist rapport often overshadows technical expertise. Therefore, the time a dentist spends relating to patients more than pays for itself in greater case acceptance, larger profits, increased referrals, and more successful anesthesia.

Commercial Support: Hundreds of Pearls, L.L.C. and Dr. Michael Curtis did not receive any commercial support from any entity during the writing of these materials. Course Content: What is the most common mistake dentists make regarding anesthesia? According to Dr. Michael Curtis, author of Anesthesia & Pain Relief, it is forgetting to address post-op pain. When a patient experiences significant pain following treatment, they lose confidence in the dentist's ability to provide comfortable care - and they may not return. A little effort goes a long way to give patients relief from post-op pain. Dr. Curtis discusses the duration and efficacy of anesthetics, drug interactions and precautions, and non-medicinal pain relievers. Before alleviating post-op pain, a dentist must render an accurate diagnosis and perform treatment. In the second half of Chapter 6, dentists gain practical knowledge to aid in accurate diagnoses of a variety of dental condition, including tooth and root sensitivity and occulusal problems. Dentists learn about diagnostic tools to enhance quality of care and increase patient confidence. The result: improved case acceptance, recare appointments, and referrals.
