Sedation Emergencies & Airway Management – November 13-15, 2026

Sedation Emergencies & Airway Management (S.E.A.M.) Training program is a unique Hybrid program dedicated to the dentist/specialist and their team that does any form of sedation. Safe Sedation Best Practices and Patient Safety are our top priorities! No One Should Die in a Dental Office! SEAM consists of Three parts:

Part 1: Pre-arrival Online Courses

Part 2: In-Person Didactic Hands-On Training

Part 3: Team Preparational Distance Learning.

SEAM is a two-year program for the dentist AND their staff! Team training is the key to handling a sedation/medical emergency. No one should die in a dental office!

Pre-Arrival Online Courses: Before your arrival you will receive several online courses that will need to be completed. These are Patient Red Flags, Sedation Management of the Medically compromised patient and Sedation/Medical Emergency Drugs

In Person Didactic Program consists of an all-day intense training. The dentist can choose Saturday or Sunday as their training day. The morning portion is dedicated to Sedation Emergencies for all our dentists. This will be recognizing and managing sedation emergencies, including but not limited to Respiratory Emergencies, Laryngospasm, Cardiac Events, Stroke/ Syncope, Seizures, and Anaphylaxis/Allergic Reaction. The afternoon portion is dedicated to Airway Management and Emergencies. The practitioner will be exposed to the airway hierarchy through advanced skills stations ending with cricothyrotomy.

If the dentist requires ACLS Renewal, this will take place on Friday 1-6 pm. This is an add-on additional cost option if dentists need to renew their ACLS (American Heart Association Curriculum/Certification). Pre course required.

Then comes TPDL or Team Preparational Distance Learning. The dentist and their staff will receive Mock Medical/Sedation Emergency Drills worth one hour of CE each. These mock drills can be done as soon as possible, or the team may spread them out over the two-year period. When your two-year period is nearing its end, you will be notified of renewing again.
