Pediatric dentistry is a unique clinical pursuit that differs in many ways from treating an adult population. The Introduction to Pediatric Dentistry pathway is designed to give clinicians who are interested in growing their practice through inclusion of pediatric dentistry an introduction to key knowledge areas and considerations related to treating children. Learners will develop an understanding of overall philosophy of treating children, behavior management strategies for both the child and the parent, diagnostic factors, exam protocols, and the techniques involved in performing basic pediatric restorative care.

  • Understand how to define a process for diagnosing and treatment planning pediatric patients
