ALD Dental Laser Standard Level Course Date: February 16-17, 2023 Instructor: Dr. Walid Altayeb
Description: Standard Level is the basic level of education in dental laser usage, including specific laser proficiency and laboratory knowledge. Candidates for Standard Level must demonstrate basic understanding of all wavelengths via an online 75-question multiple choice psychometric examination and an oral clinical simulation proficiency exam with at least one wavelength. The Standard Level defines the standard of care for the dental professional. Upon successful completion of the Standard Certification, expected learner.
Educational Objectives The 12 hours of CE laser utilization includes: • an understanding of the basic principles of laser physics and laser-tissue interaction. • how variations in the laser’s wavelength, power, and temporal modes can be used to alter desired clinical outcomes. • an understanding of laser operation and safety features in a hands-on learning assessment exercise. • Practical hands-on exercises in laser-assisted clinical procedures on porcine tissue under controlled supervision. • Fulfillment of the Dental Laser Licensure Requirements.
outcomes include demonstration of the basic level of education in dental laser usage, including specific laser proficiency and laboratory knowledge. Successful learners demonstrate an understanding of all wavelengths via a 75-question multiple choice written examination and clinical simulation oral examination with at least one wavelength. Participants in the Standard Online Examination are required to have successfully completed the 12-hour Standard course and Clinical Simulation Oral Examination with an ALD-recognized speaker. This level defines the standard of care for the dental professional.

The standard level course in laser dentistry is a prerequisite for all dentists, nurses, dental assistants and dental hygienists to handle any kind of LASER devices. It provides a basic level of education in LASER usage and includes specific device instruction with demonstrated proficiency in didactic and hands-on knowledge. LASER safety is an important issue and all those who are involved in LASER dentistry must be equipped with the knowledge of the wavelengths, user settings, care and maintenance of the device. Further, international bodies governing laser safety issues require all organizations housing laser devices to have a certified laser safety officer. This course provides all the required knowledge and documentation for laser safety officers. Apart from general considerations in LASER practice, specific uses of LASERs in various fields of dentistry will be discussed along with tips on LASER practice management. The Standard Level Course is the basic level of education in dental laser usage, including specific laser proficiency and laboratory knowledge. Candidates for the Standard Level Course must demonstrate a basic understanding of all wavelengths via a multiple-choice examination and an oral clinical simulation exam, with at least one wavelength.
Educational Objectives The 12 hours of CE laser utilization includes: 1. Outline basic laser physics 2. Explain the biologic laser tissue interaction 3. Demonstrate the clinical applications of lasers in different dental fields 4. Select between different laser wavelengths 5. Utilize the recommended standards in laser safety
