Dental Therapy: Expanding Access and Closing Care Gaps (1 Free CE Credit)
Dental therapy is steadily expanding across the United States, yet many dental hygienists, dental assistants, dentists, and educators report limited clarity about what dental therapists do, how they are trained, and how they can be effectively integrated into care teams.
Join CareQuest Institute and the American Dental Therapy Association for a webinar that will explore the role of dental therapists, including their scope of practice and the education they receive. Through real-world practice experience and examples, expert panelists will discuss how dental therapists support access, quality, and team-based care. They will also examine why understanding dental therapy matters for the entire oral health workforce, as the role continues to grow nationally.
Learning Objectives
- Describe the role of dental therapists, including scope of practice and common practice settings.
- Explain the education and training pathways for dental therapists and how these differ from and complement other oral health professions.
- Examine examples of effective dental therapy implementation and how it supports access and team-based care.
