Dental and Medical Simulation Workshop!

Dental and Medical Education Simulation Workshop with Rich Fidler PhD, Dr. Mary Sturgeon DMD, Dr. Melissa Lin DDS and the VAMC SF Medical Simulation Team

Date, Time, Location: Wednesday, March 13th, 2019; 7:30 – 8:30 pm at Terra Linda HS in San Rafael, Room 207

Back by popular demand! Join us for an introduction to dentistry, including the educational requirements and job opportunities. Drs. Melissa Lin, DDS and Mary Sturgeon, DMD will tell you how it’s done. There will be a hands-on break out session including mirror skills. Brace yourselves for an unfolding case presentation– a 70 year old man with symptomatic chin swelling, large anterior mandibular multilocular radiolucency of the anterior mandible! (Spoiler alert – the biopsy shows ameloblastoma.) You can learn about initial evaluation by a general dentist, and evaluation in a specialty consultation by an oral surgeon. Another hands-on break out session will feature a punch biopsy on chicken hearts.  Finally, there will be an oral pathologist evaluation by Jill White, DDS who will present with slides. Join us and learn!.
