This new information is incorporated in an instrumentation technique that can improve working conditions for the hygienist. The lecture will be followed by a hands-on session in the clinic. Each hygienist will have the opportunity to learn instrument sharpening and the new basic power strokes in instrumentation. Dr. Meador is currently working on a new textbook, Efficient Instrumentation for Dental Professionals with Occupational Pain. He lectures extensively to hygienists about ergonomics in instrumentation techniques.
Class size is limited so please plan to register early.
