The course will define and explore clinical and non-clinical terms commonly used in endodontics, oral and maxillofacial surgery, orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, periodontics, prosthodontics, restorative dentistry, dental radiography, and dental practice administration. The course is organized by specialty so participants may personalize their experience and focus their learning as needed.
