SUMMARY
This is a course that meets the standards of the International Federation of Dental Anaesthesiology Societies. The first half of the day will be lecture style with the afternoon being hands-on.
This course will enable participants to become proficient and confident in the administration of nitrous oxide in clinical practice.
This course is a refresher for dentists wishing to update their theory and practical skills in the delivery of relative analgesia. Participants will be given the opportunity to administer nitrous oxide – oxygen sedation to each other, and to experience themselves the effects of the gases in a safe environment.
