Drug-Related Problems in Dental Practice: It's a Minefield Out There!

8:30am - 11:30am

Click here if you would like to attend the A M session ONLY

Increasing numbers of dental patient s are uncontrolled hypertensives or on multiple medications with complex o ral health problems. Many new cardiovascular and central nervous system dr ugs can interact with dental drugs or affect bleeding or wound healing. Co nsequently\, more and more dental patients suffer from multiple side effec t or stated intolerances. Dental professionals are frequently faced with m edically complex and chemically challenged patients and need practical str ategies for providing safe and appropriate care. Karen will discuss the be st method for identifying drug-related problems encountered in dental prac tice and will outline practical management solutions. Extensive handouts w ill supplement discussion of common drug side effects and treatment modifi cations based on the patient's chronic medications. Throughout the program \, primary emphasis will be placed on developing consistent strategies for treating medically complex dental patients. An extensive and current hand out will greatly enhance the chair-side value of this fast-paced and pract ical course.

Course Objectives:

At the co nclusion of this course\, participants will be able to:

  • Recogni ze the specific dental treatment modifications necessary to prevent compli cations in patients with major cardiovascular or central nervous system di sorders
  • Modify dental treatment for patients on chronic medication s for diabetes\, weight loss\, \;osteoporosis\, and autoimmune disorde rs such as rheumatoid arthritis or psoriasis
  • Identify new biologic s or targeted therapies likely to cause oral complications
  • Buy and use the three drug references most helpful in managing medicated dental p atients

*Those attending both sessions will receive a box lunch*

Drug Reactions and Interactions Importan t in Clinical Dentistry

12:00pm - 3:00pm

Dental patients are becoming more chemically challenged which means that clinicians must consi der the dental treatment impact of chronic drug therapy or chemical exposu re. This program will provide clinically useful information on identificat ion and management of intra-oral drug and chemical effects and potential d rug interactions with dental drugs. Drug-induced effects such as bruxism\, increased gag reflex\, medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ )\, candidosis and xerostomia will be examined. Chemical effects such as m ucosal irritation\, sensitivity and ulcerations will also be described. Ex tensive handouts will supplement this fast-paced lecture with emphasis on practical clinical management of medicated dental patients.

Course Objectives:

At the conclusion of this course\, p articipants will be able to:

  • Describe the most common causes of xerostomia\, taste disorders\, oral pigmentation\, osteonecrosis of the j aw\, chemical sensitivity and mucositis
  • Discuss dental management strategies for xerostomia\, halitosis and mucositis
  • List four chro nic medications that limit vasoconstrictor dosage
