DDS 7113 is a one-credit course that is designed to build on periodontal curriculum content introduced in Periodontology I (DDS 6111) and Periodontology II and IIb (DDS 6112 and DDS 7112). DDS 7113 Fall curriculum will provide a one-time clinical rotation experience (previously part of DDS 6112).
The clinical rotation will provide the second-year dental student the opportunity to provide preventive/maintenance periodontal care for a School of Dentistry patient. This opportunity will also provide the dental student an experience in OSHA procedures, HIPPA protocol, infection control protocol, Axium charting, patient management, clinical dispensing procedures, and financial management of the appointment.
