At the conclusion of this course, the student should be able to:
Theory Objectives
1. Identify the components of evidence-based decision making and the correlation with patient centered care for diverse populations.
2. Describe oral characteristics associated with periodontal health, gingivitis and clinical attachment loss (CAL).
3. Determine periodontal risk factors and correlate these factors to the patient's periodontal diagnosis and plan for treatment.
4. Define uses and techniques of basic powered instrumentation.
5. Define informed consent and its importance to patient care.
Clinical Objectives
1. Continue to demonstrate the correct principles of insertion, adaptation, angulation, and lateral pressure with instrumentation.
2. Analyze all the data gathered during the assessment phase of the dental hygiene process to provide treatment that is preventive and therapeutic.
3. Assess the oral conditions of hard and soft tissues, detect and remove supragingival, subgingival calculus, stain and biofilm on dental hygiene patients.
4. Demonstrate the basic powered-instrument techniques and apply in clinic setting.
5. Continue to refine the principles of instrument sharpening.
6. Analyze evaluation outcome and offer recommendations to patients regarding preventive and therapeutic measures as well as recall interval.
7. Demonstrate professionalism for appropriate learning environment, as well as for rendering patient care.
