Dentists need to screen and monitor patients for underlying medical conditions and are required to render dental care to an array of medically complex patients. Pertinent medical assessment of patients has become an essential part of dentistry, as even the most common medical problems may require modifications to routine dental care.

This course will simplify this task by explaining and providing clinical protocols for dental care of patients with complex medical conditions.
