Basics of Local Anesthesia
This beginner level course provides a broad look at anesthetic options and the regions of the mouth anesthetized by the common injections used in dentistry. Perfect for every member of the dental team to understand which structures are anesthetized.
Tina's teaching style has a unique way of helping you remember all you are "supposed to know" without making you feel dumb for not knowing it.

Something More?
Looking for a Full dose of Anesthesia?
How often do you shy away from providing local anesthesia for your patient? Or you don’t gain the profound anesthesia required for your procedure? You aren't alone. I hear it time and time again from so many clinicians.
​
After coaching hundreds of hygienists to become more confident in their syringe slingin' capabilities, I learned some valuable things. Oral health providers like you, are looking for a continuing education course focused on anesthesia which is designed for the needs of a busy professional.
​
A course where you get all the information in a time frame that works best for you. Where you can put into action all you have learned, and then go back to review it again. Because when you haven't given a Vazirani-Akinosi injection in a few years and find yourself ready to give it, you want to be able to revisit that information and watch the how-to video again (and hit repeat).
​
On-demand local anesthesia courses like the popular HIT ME WITH YOUR BEST SHOT are available. There is something to fit your needs. If you're looking for injection techniques only, or wanting to understand a little more about the pharmacology of local anesthetics you'll find it.
