Medical Emergencies in the Dental Office ( Video Course) - Dentistry eBooks

Course Overview

Presented by Dr. Daniel Haas, this course prepares dental teams to recognize and respond to medical emergencies that can arise in the dental office — situations that, while uncommon, demand immediate and correct action when they occur. Rather than treating emergency preparedness as an afterthought, the course covers prevention, recognition, and response as a connected system.

The curriculum covers drug interactions and managing medically compromised patients as a preventive foundation, then moves into specific emergency protocols: anaphylaxis, cardiovascular events, respiratory issues including asthma, and local anesthetic toxicity. It also addresses practical preparedness — how to assemble an appropriate emergency kit and define clear staff roles so a real emergency is handled calmly and efficiently rather than chaotically.

Across 9 videos and 1 hour 17 minutes of focused content, the course gives dental teams the specific knowledge needed to prevent, recognize, and manage the emergencies most likely to occur in daily practice.
