Antibiotic stewardship has taken on new importance with the emergence of superbugs and the decline in effective and available oral antibiotics. Karen will update the dental team on recent developments in dental antibiotic prescribing and outline strategies for prescribing to ensure therapeutic success with minimum risk. Karen will discuss difficult questions about antibiotic prophylaxis and all relevant guidelines and decision tools will be included. Opioid prescribing remains controversial, especially in young, opioid naïve patients. We will explore alternatives and strategies that benefit patients and reflect positively on your practice. Extensive and current handouts will maximize the chairside value of this fast-paced and entertaining lecture.
This course will fulfill the 2 CE credits of opioid instruction required for licensure in Wisconsin.

Substance Use Disorders (SUDs) are unfortunately both common and destructive in our society. We will discuss new developments in the neurophysiology and treatment of common SUDs. Recreational marijuana is currently legal in 24 states and medicinal cannabis is legal in 39 states. Karen will review the pharmacology of cannabis products and discuss oral effects and dental treatment ramifications for patients who frequently use cannabinoids with special emphasis on risks of high potency THC among adolescents. Karen will also explain new protocols for treating anticoagulated patients, those with extremely high BPs and all those patients on injectable GLP-1 agonists or “skinny shots”.
Very current handouts will maximize the chairside value of this timely information.
