Local anesthesia, antibiotics, office emergencies and dental trauma — one 32-lesson safety curriculum with Stanley Malamed and colleagues
Five clinicians share the teaching in Dental Emergency and Anesthesia Mastery: Stanley Malamed, Kevin Kwiecien, Lou Berman, Matthew Chesler and Jay Platt. Over 7 h 21 min and four modules they cover numbing technique and armamentarium, antibiotic choice and post-operative analgesia, the medical crises that can strike in the chair, and the management of fractured, luxated and avulsed teeth.

What you’ll be able to do

- Stock a drug kit and respond to syncope, seizures, asthma, allergy, angina and infarction
- Assess and treat crown fractures, root fractures, luxations and avulsions
Inside the course
Getting profound anesthesia
A short historical opener leads into local versus general agents, the differences between upper and lower arch injections, and the pharmacology behind how the solution blocks conduction. Just under an hour in total.
Prescribing with purpose
Around 2 h 16 min on antibiotic classes, antifungals and their place in dental care, with an update on bisphosphonates and practical protocols for controlling pain after surgery.
When a patient collapses in the chair
The longest block, close to three hours, starts with prevention and preparation, then walks through sudden death, altered consciousness, hyperventilation, diabetic events, local anesthetic toxicity and cardiac and respiratory crises one scenario at a time.
Trauma triage
Five traumatology lessons show how to examine an injured tooth and follow evidence-based steps for each injury type, from a chipped crown to a knocked-out incisor.
Built for
- General and pediatric dentistsEmergency readiness and trauma protocols that every practice needs on hand.
- Surgeons, endodontists and periodontistsA refresher on pharmacology and anesthesia that underpins invasive work.
- Whole clinical teamsShared language for medical emergencies before one happens.

Before you buy
Is the anesthesia module a full injection-technique course?
No. It runs under an hour and focuses on principles, a few key blocks and armamentarium; the emergency and pharmacology modules carry most of the running time.
Who teaches the medical emergencies section?
The faculty includes Stanley Malamed, emeritus professor at USC and author of textbooks on local anesthesia, sedation and emergency medicine in dentistry.
Do I get CME credit or a certificate?
No. Clinicapedia provides the educational content only — no CME or CE credits, MOC points or certificates of completion are included with this product.
