DOCS Education

    SEATTLE, WA, January 16, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- On January 9, 2010, a press release entitled "Questions about Sedation Dentistry" contained statements about dentists and dental sedation/anesthesia that are being incorrectly attributed to DOCS Education (fka Dental Organization for Conscious Sedation).

As a leading provider of sedation training to dentists in North America, DOCS Education firmly supports the use of all the tried-and-true dental sedation modalities. As with oral sedation dentistry, intravenous sedation and general anesthesia are safe - and in many cases, the medically appropriate option - in the hands of a properly trained dentist. In fact, DOCS Education provides courses in both oral and IV sedation so that dentists can offer these choices to their high-fear patients.

DOCS Education also supports the nearly unanimous prohibition by state dental boards against advertising or making statements about the competence (or lack thereof) of a dentist. Such comments only serve to undermine a proud profession.
