The ULM Department of Continuing Education and Professional Development along with the Dental Hygiene Program is pleased to host the Fall Focus on Dentistry Seminar with Dr. Jacob Dent as the guest speaker.
The presentation will cover the following topics: "Becoming a Special Needs Warrior" and "Inclusive Dentistry: Building a Team and Practice for Neurodiversity."
Dr. Dent will discuss the need for collaborative care between dentists, hygienists, caregivers, therapists, and teachers to successfully treat patients of all ages with intellectual or developmental disabilities, including mental or physical impairments. His goal is to empower dental professionals with the confidence and competence to improve the healthcare needs of persons with special needs using a real-world approach to dental visits and home care.
Dr. Jacob Dent is an outside-the-box general dentist. In practice for 20 years, and a multi-practice owner, Dr. Dent has built a successful career treating patients of all ages and disabilities in a non-conventional way using desensitization.
For the past 6 years, Dr. Dent has given presentations and workshops around the country to dental professionals, healthcare providers, students, and families.
