Module 4: Dental Emergencies and Patient Education for Oral Health Care
The main goal of Module 4 is to enable primary health care providers to identify
dental emergency in HIV-positive patients versus routine dental conditions.
The "Dental Emergencies in the HIV-Positive Patient" PowerPoint presentation will
help medical providers determine what dental emergencies require rapid referral to
an emergency room and which ones can be treated in a medical office.
The "Oral Health Care Patient Education" PowerPoint presentation will review
components of basic oral care plan, the role of proper dental hygiene for oral and
systemic health, the importance of home dental care, and the management of pain.
