Join us for the ArDHA June CE Event on Tue Jun 20, 2023 at 6:30 pm for an exciting online event to obtain 1.5 hours of CEU! This event is one of many upcoming events we have to provide a unique opportunity to learn about the latest industry trends and best practices from industry experts. Whether you're a seasoned professional or just starting out, this event is perfect for anyone looking to enhance their knowledge and skills. To kick of our first event, Stacey Fletcher RDH, IBCLC will speak on Orofacial Myotherapy. Stacey is a orofacial myotherapist that is currently practicing in Arkansas!
Presentation description: As dental hygienists, we are at the forefront of patient preventive care. We all know that part of preventive care is addressing the entire person as a whole. We are far more than just tooth cleaners. We have the capacity to be life-changers, and maybe even life-savers. Come learn more about the innovative field of orofacial myology and how proper awareness, screening, and education of orofacial myofunctional impairment and airway dysfunction can benefit the lives of your patients and their families.
Presentation objectives:
- Discuss the history of orofacial myology (and why it should be included in all dental hygiene curriculum)
- Examine the science behind OMT (and see why screening should be the standard of care in every dental office)
- Explain how OMT can be applied in a real-life practice (and where to seek training)
- Identify ways your office can take part in the screening of orofacial myofunctional impairment (and who to refer to first)
- Outline strategies to help your patients understand the importance of addressing OMI and airway dysfunction (and which questionnaires can help)
- Investigate where the TOTs trend fits into appropriate treatment planning and timeline management (and why releasing a tongue tie should never be the first step)
