Course Description: Children grow and change at an almost alarming rate - so fast that it often seems they're hitting a new milestone every time you turn around. As children develop, their faces and mouths change just as much as they do. By age two, the face is already 60% adult-sized; by age five, the face and oral structures are up to 85% grown. We'll examine how genetics, diet, tongue, teeth, and breathing influence craniofacial development and what to assess in the clinical setting.

Course Description: For some patients, a history of trauma, anxiety disorders, or substance abuse can create a sense of real fear around a dental appointment. The relationship between the dental professional and patient is the key factor in what helps trauma survivors in recovery and building resilience to end the vicious cycle of dental fear. The fear of a dental appointment may leave the patient and clinician feeling exhausted and confused. Awareness of the neurobiological responses to trauma can help dental professionals provide optimum treatment with empathy and compassion. This course will discuss many non-dental related traumas that may cause the patient severe anxiety during a dental appointment. It will address treatment from a trauma-informed care mindset, guiding dental professionals to a deeper understanding of dental fear and management.
