Philadelphia County Dental Society & Pennsylvania Dental Association present:
8:30 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. -- Child Abuse Recognition and Reporting for Dental Professionals (Act 31) with Opioids and Pain Management Alternatives (Act 124) and Antibiotic Stewardship

Presented by Angela M. Stout, DMD, MPH, a pediatric dentist in private practice in Erdenheim, PA, and Richard L. Wynn, PhD, a professor of Pharmacology at the University of Maryland School of Dentistry in Baltimore.

Child Abuse Recognition and Reporting for Dental Professionals will fulfill the Act 31 CE requirement for dentists, hygienists and EFDAs renewing a dental license in March 2023. Attendees may register to attend just the Act 31 course or register for the full day of CE that includes Opioids and Pain Management Alternatives and Antibiotic Stewardship. The opioids course will fulfill the Act 124 CE requirement for dentists with a DEA registration or who use a DEA registration as allowed by law. The course describes the role dental practitioners play in preventing prescription drug abuse and addiction. The day of CE concludes with an examination of bacterial resistance to antibiotics; new antibiotic discoveries and issues with antibiotics to prevent dental bacterial infection and antibiotics to treat odontogenic infections.

Cancellation policy: No refunds on courses purchased as part of the CE package. Refunds for courses purchased individually will be issued less a 10% administrative fee if the registration is cancelled in writing seven days prior to the program you are attending. Refunds are not issued for no shows.

Full-day course tuition includes lunch and FREE parking.
