highest quality outcome. In order to achieve that, risk and risk management associated
with all treatment must be addressed concurrently using the latest principles and

The following risk management fundamentals will be addressed in this seminar:
• Management of patient communications by choosing words wisely, listening intently, earning trust
and respect, and creating the happy and loyal patient
• Implementing office policy so the entire team utilizes the same risk and safety policies
• Providing all clinical treatment that meets or exceeds the accepted standard of care in your locality
• Understanding the basic principles of accepted chart and record documentation and the responsibilities
of protecting patient health information
• Effective patient management regarding non-clinical issues and adverse events
• Fundamentals of legal concepts, including general informed consent, vicarious liability and negligence
Additionally, dentists insured with the Professional Protector Plan® for Dentists (PPP) will receive
10% professional liability premium credit upon renewal for three successive years. Dentists who are not insured
with the PPP may be eligible for credit by purchasing PPP coverage within one year of attending the seminar.
