Categories: All-Tissue Laser
COURSE OVERVIEW
A 9.3 μm CO2 all-tissue laser enables reliably anesthesia-free hard tissue procedures and blood- and suture-free soft tissue surgeries. Traditionally invasive procedures like pulpotomies, extractions, and frenectomies, become easier to perform with better outcomes using the 9.3 μm CO2 all-tissue laser. As a result, dentists can enjoy an easier workday and increase their efficiency while delivering an unparalleled patient and parent experience.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
After completing this course, participants will be able to:
- Describe the 9.3 μm CO2 all-tissue laser's unique underlying technology
- Identify the positive effects anesthesia-free dentistry has on the patient and parent experience
- Explain how to integrate a 9.3 μm CO2 all-tissue into pediatric practice with a wide range of procedures
COURSE SPEAKER
Hi! I’m Dr. Jackson and am happy to introduce myself. I’m a North Carolinian, born and raised. My entire family went to NC State University, and so did I, majoring in microbiology, where I was valedictorian. From there I was fortunate to go Harvard (HSDM) for dental school, where I was second in my class. I also was honored to be inducted into OKU, the dental honor society. While at Harvard, I was given the Dean’s Community Service Award and was chosen to be a part of the HSDM/Forsyth Institute Research Academy. With a love of working with children and a desire to make things easy for them, I decided to specialize in pediatrics with 3 years of training at UNC Chapel Hill and getting a Master’s in Public Health while there. I earned my board certification after residency, becoming a Diplomate of the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry. Then for demonstrating leadership and service in the field, I earned Fellowship status. Giving back to the community and my field is important to me. Currently I’m on the board of the NC Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, serving as immediate past president. Previously I’ve served on the Buncombe County Dental Society, including Past President. I am an adjunct assistant professor at UNC Chapel Hill Dental School and serve on the AB Tech Dental Advisory Committee. I also volunteer to screen children through the Asheville City Schools Head Start Program and have helped teach the MAHEC GPR Residents pediatric dentistry. I decided to open my own practice in 2007, wanting dental experiences to be easy and fun, and for children to be able to stay close to a parent during their visits. Here we continue to strive to make each visit as easy as possible! When I learned about Solea, the all-tissue dental laser (“healing light”) that makes almost all dental restorations able to be done without numbing, I knew we had to make this technology available to our community and get the word out! Now I get to give webinars and speak to other dentists about it to help them implement it in their practices. I sincerely hope you have the best dental experience and learn how to keep you and your family’s mouths in balance. When not helping people at the office, I love spending time with my family and friends. I’ve been blessed to be married for over 20 years and have two wonderful children and a fluffy Tibetan Terrier. I also love exercising, doing projects with my family, and enjoying our beautiful surroundings.
