The Wonderful World of Special Care is an interactive course that puts the learner in the shoes of many of our patients. This course contains simulations that leave the learners with a newly formed empathy for our patient's struggles in the dental office. Dr. Brooke will also show tools and equipment that help make it easier for her to treat her patients. The last portion of the course is a time when learners can come up to the "Show and Tell" table so they can see and feel some of the smaller more portable instruments. Step out of your world and into ours as you engage and feel. Sit in the "Splash Zone" for a particularly interactive experience.
