The days of marketing your practice through esthetic dentistry may be over or a losing battle. Research shows that over twenty five percent of the dental population do not visit a dentist on a regular basis out of fear. They may be afraid of the injection, the sound of the drill or the anticipated pain associated with a dental procedure. This CE webinar is designed for the entire dental team, specialists and practitioners with all levels of experience. I will discuss the unique problems or concerns associated with treating anxious patients. We will cover local anesthesia, non-pharmacological and pharmacological ways to manage your patients. In order to treat this unique population the provider must understand the unique challenges they present. My practice was dedicated to treating the anxious patient and over the past 42 years I've developed systems to treat this under served group of dental patients.

According to the American Cancer Society, almost half a million cases of oral cancer are diagnosed worldwide each year. In the United States alone, there were over 58,000 cases of oral cancer, with over 12,000 deaths in 2024. Unlike other cancers, where the annual rate of the disease is decreasing, the rate of oral cancer is increasing at a rate of about 1% each year. Survivors often experience problems such as facial disfigurement, eating and speaking difficulties, and more. The key to survival and minimizing the effects of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy is to identify oral cancers at their earliest stages, before it spreads throughout the head and neck region or metastasizes throughout the body.
