Course Description

This 7-hour didactic and hands-on course teaches basic anatomy, exposure control procedures, ergonomics, techniques, and indications and contraindications for coronal polishing.

You will practice and demonstrate appropriate coronal polishing techniques on anatomical models to prepare for student/partner practice (liability form must be received prior to clinical participation).  Both written exam and clinical competency must meet a minimum of 75%. Appropriate certification by DANB or the Ohio Commission on Dental Assisting is required.  After the registration closes, a Welcome Packet will be emailed to the email you provided when you registered for the class, to outline course outcomes and expectations.

Prerequisites

• In keeping with the guidelines established by the Ohio State Dental Board for licensure/certification, all individuals participating in this lab course are required to provide appropriate documentation of immunization of Hepatitis B and current certification in CPR in order to participate in this dental continuing education course. While Stark State College does not require additional immunizations, it is strongly recommended by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) that all healthcare workers be immunized against vaccine-preventable diseases such as Hepatitis B, Influenza, Measles, Mumps, Rubella, and Varicella. Because healthcare workers are considered to be at significant risk for acquiring or transmitting these diseases in the course of their professions, the Allied Dental Health Department at Stark State College supports this recommendation. *
