Tuesday, September 2nd - Afternoon Clinic Session
by Kaleigh Warden 25 Aug '25

25 Aug '25

Hello DH3, Unfortunately, we will be short one supervising instructor for the PM clinic on Tuesday, September 2nd. To maintain appropriate student-to-instructor ratios, I am wondering if any students would like to volunteer to take a "free" during this clinic session (in lieu of a scheduled direct patient care clinic session)? In an attempt to keep things as fair as possible, I will allot these free sessions on a first-come-first-served basis. The first 4 students who reply to this email will be granted the free for the afternoon clinic on September 2nd. Currently, there are several chairs sitting unbooked on AxiUm. If you are interested, please respond as soon as possible. Thank you for your flexibility and support in helping us manage the clinic effectively.

A Couple of Notes Before Tomorrow’s First Clinic Session
by Kaleigh Warden 25 Aug '25

25 Aug '25

Good morning DH3, I hope your schedule is coming together smoothly and that you are feeling excited as you get ready to see your first patient as a DH3 student tomorrow. Ahead of tomorrow’s session, I wanted to share two quick notes: 1. Remote Requests: I am not able to approve requests by email due to the high volume I receive. Please make sure all instructor approvals happen during your allotted clinic or virtual clinic sessions. This includes any disposition requests. If you sent me an email with disposition requests last week, please try to find time during an upcoming clinic or virtual clinic session. Thank you for your understanding. 1. Instructor Workspace in Clinic: This year, the clinic will be running at capacity for most sessions, so there will not be designated don/doff instructor units for the instructors to complete their notes. To help instructors complete their documentation, please keep the area circled in the image below clear of instruments and supplies so they have space for their iPad or laptop. [cid:image004.png@01DC15A9.232F21E0][cid:image002.png@01DC15A8.A35AD400] Thank you for your attention to these details. I am looking forward to seeing you in clinic and watching you begin your DH3 journey with your first patient.

Clarification on Patient Communication & Disposition Procedures
by Sabrina Raposo 25 Aug '25

25 Aug '25

Hello DH3, I wanted to reach out regarding a few common questions that have been coming. 1. Patient Informs they want to be seen for Dental Treatment Without Hygiene There seems to be some confusion around what to do when a patient says they would like dental care but, not dental hygiene at the COD. It's important that students remind patients, when this comes up, that we provide comprehensive care-meaning patients must commit to both dental and dental hygiene services. If a patient declines dental hygiene, students should clarify whether the patient only wants to be removed from the hygiene list or if they wish to withdraw from the COD completely (which would mean leaving both the dental and dental hygiene programs). Students need to make this clear over the phone-that one cannot continue without the other. Sometimes this explanation changes the patient's mind; if not, and they still refuse hygiene, students should explain that the case will be reviewed by the Associate Dean and may result in dismissal. If students do not document this conversation clearly, they will be asked to call the patient back, update the notes, and clarify before any decision is made. 2. Disposition Forms When submitting a disposition form, students do not need to follow up with an additional email or axiUm message-the reasoning provided on the form is sufficient and comes directly to me. If chart notes are up to date and the rationale is documented on the form, a separate message isn't required. Additionally, all disposition forms must be swiped before submission; otherwise, they will be returned. 3. CDCP Patient Coverage While students have been doing very well in reaching out about patient insurance, I've noticed some are not fully reviewing CDCP patients' charts before calling. A quick chart review should include: * Checking the date of the last appointment * Noting how many units of scale were used When speaking with patients on the phone, students should also: * Confirm whether the patient has had hygiene appointments elsewhere, as this may affect coverage ( we will not know if they have been elsewhere ) * Verify that the patient has renewed their coverage (since this can change yearly) * Remind patients that any changes in coverage should be outlined in the approval letter they received If a patient has recently received CDCP, students are free to book them, but should remind the patient to bring their CDCP card to the front desk so the information can be added to their chart at check-in. I am also happy to assist any students who would like to come and see me directly or reach out for further clarification. I am also happy to assist any students who would like to meet with me directly or reach out for further clarification. Thank you, Sabrina

Reminder: Monday Clinic with Partners & DH2 Observers
by Kaleigh Warden 23 Aug '25

23 Aug '25

Hello DH3, Just a quick reminder that your Clinic with Partners session is coming up on Monday. By now, you should have self-selected your partner for the day. One of you will take the role of clinician in the morning, and the other will be the clinician in the afternoon. You will be moving through the full process of care, however, due to time constraints, you are not expected to complete each activity in full. Please review the expectations for this session in more detail on our HYGN 2312 UM Learn page, under the Orientation section. Also, a reminder that the DH2 students will be observing the clinic session on Monday afternoon. This will be their first time in clinic, so will likely be a very exciting (and maybe a little overwhelming) experience for them. As their peer mentors, we would like you to help set the tone for what a professional and efficient clinic session looks like. Specifically, we would like the DH2s to observe: * How you set up your operatory * How you move between your assessment and the computer * How you interact with your patient Much of the other clinical content will be beyond their learning level at this stage, but seeing the clinic in action will be a valuable first step in their journey. Thank you for setting a great example and enjoy the session! Hopefully it will help to get you back in the swing of clinics and boost your confidence as you prepare for your upcoming direct patient care clinics that start on Tuesday. Have a great weekend, and we’ll see you Monday.
