拔牙与口腔外科 Oral Surgery & Extractions
Screening, consent, the sensation script and aftercare: the appointment where a calm voice does half the anesthetic’s work.
By the end of this module you can…
- Ask the pre-op medical questions: blood thinners, heart, diabetes, allergies.
- Explain when you would check with the patient’s doctor first, without making them feel refused.
- Describe an extraction in plain, unfrightening words, and take informed consent.
- Run the sensation script during the procedure, and pause to check the anesthetic if it hurts.
- Give post-op instructions and the warning signs that mean they must call.
