    Program Date: April 8, 2016
    Location:Andover Inn – 4 Chapel Avenue, Andover, MA, 01810
    Speakers: Jamie Schoessling, RDH
    Program Objectives:
    At the end of the program, the participant should be able to:

    Communicate the same message as a team
    Define each team member’s role and importance
    Identify the implant patient in the hygiene schedule
    Understand the proper maintenance protocol for implant patients
    Understand the role of the restorative implant treatment coordinator
    Schedule successful consultations and treatment plan presentations

    Program Description:The objective of this course is to educate the entire dental team. Every team member has a vital role in growing and running a successful implant practice. We will identify each member’s role from front desk to hygienist. By the end of this course you will understand how to properly schedule the new implant patient, how to present a successful treatment plan and make a referral to your referring surgeon’s office that leads to greater case acceptance. A sample of how to track these implant cases will be demonstrated so that you will be able to implement this system into your practice immediately. There will be a brief discussion in regards to hygiene protocol for implant patients, insurance, proper coding and tracking costs.
