Mastering Adult Moderate IV Sedation for Dentistry: BC Level II CourseLevel II training allows for the addition of an IV opioid for patient treatment

This is the training course that DentalEd offers to allow the qualified registrant to provide parenteral sedation using benzodiazepine drugs with or without narcotics, most often using fentanyl. This clinical course only applies to BC dentists who hold a parenteral level I authorization with the BCCOHP and wish to obtain level II authorization.

Option 1

1. For dentists who have graduated from the DentalEd ModSed Level I course.
2. The required training for graduates of the ModSed Level I course is the undertaking of a three-day clinical where you undertake the supervised application of IV sedation using both a benzodiazepine and a narcotic drug for a minimum of 20 patients over a three-day period.

Option 2

1. For dentists who cannot return to the provider of their original single drug course and want level II authorization.
2. The BCCOHP requires that the participant completes the full ModSed Level I didactic component then do their clinical using both a benzodiazepine and a narcotic drug for a minimum of 20 cases over a three-day period.
3. This will require registration in the full ModSed Level I course with the dual drug clinical at the standard tuition rates.

 

This program is developed and presented in accordance with the American Dental Association’s “Practice Guidelines for Teaching Comprehensive Control of Pain and Anxiety in Dentistry” Part III, “Practice Guidelines for Sedation by Non-anaesthesia Providers” by the American Society of Anesthesiologists, and by the sedation standards of the BC College of Oral Health Professionals (BCCOHP).
