Why Dental Sedation Is Getting Harder — and Why Pushing Through Is the Wrong Response

Leave a Comment / Anesthesia, Pain Control, Sedation / By David Lambert

The Problem Across American dentistry, particularly in office‑based moderate sedation, a quiet but consequential shift is underway. Dentists, assistants, and regulators alike are noticing that patients are harder to sedate, require higher drug doses, and behave less predictably during and after procedures. This is not a matter of technique, effort, or professionalism. It reflects a […]

The UK Personal Independence Payment Database – Should Spiraling Disabilities Give Pause To Reconsider Continued Routine Office Based Anesthesia In Dentistry Without Further Consideration?

Leave a Comment / Anesthesia, Sedation / By David Lambert

Former Blackrock hedge fund analyst Ed Dowd made a troubling discovery about mortality rates in the US. He observed an increase in deaths, particularly among young individuals, unrelated to COVID-19. Insurance companies also reported higher death rates. Dowd’s research team has now found startling data from the UK indicating a significant rise in disabilities coinciding with the mass vaccination effort. Dowd believes the same trend is likely happening in the US. This raises concerns, especially in dentistry, where an increase in cardiovascular disabilities among young patients has been observed. A more cautious approach to office-based anesthesia may be necessary.

Clonidine Revisted…Again…

Leave a Comment / Non-Opiate Analgesics, Sedation / By David Lambert

We continuously endorse the use of over-the-counter analgesics (non-opiate multi-modal therapy) such as Advil (Ibuprofen), Aleve (Naproxen), and Tylenol (Acetaminophen) – alone or in combination – for most – if not all dental procedures…including surgery. In fact, we train doctors who participate in our state mandated opiate compliance webinar “Strategies For Acute Pain Management In

Getting Started

Ok, I paid my registration fee. What do I do now?

Category: Getting Started

Once you have paid your course registration fee, you will be able to access your course after you sign-in to your user account…which you just created. But you need a password!

Did you receive these emails?

A transaction receipt
A course confirmation
General User Instructions
Log-in details
And possibly others…

Are those emails in your “Inbox”? If not, check your spam folder. If they are in your spam folder, your email provider (or domain) is filtering messages from ce-dojo.com. If your registration emails from CE Dojo are being sent to spam, see our FAQ “I can’t find any emails from CE Dojo!!”.

One email provides you with log-in details you specified during registration. But, it will also prompt you with a link to set your password. When complete, these two credentials – user name and password – will provide access to your “account”. Write these down. If you forget your password, you can reset it yourself – see our FAQ “I forgot the password to my CE Dojo user account!”

Now that you have your password in hand, you can log into your account to access your course(s).

I can’t find any emails from CE Dojo!!

Category: Getting Started

Often times email services (Google, etc) will filter email away from your inbox. Did you check your spam folder? But, simply moving our email out of spam to your inbox will NOT prevent future emails from meeting the same demise. The solution is to add email addresses from CE Dojo to your contact list.

If you do not find any email communications from CE Dojo in any of your email folders – including spam – there is a very real possibility your internet service provider (ISP) may have a firewall that is blocking our email. We have found that even adding our email addresses to your contact list does not resolve this problem. We have identified a couple of problem ISPs:

RoadRunner (nc.rr.com)
Apple (iCloud.com)
Embarq
Frontier
HughesNet
And others…

In this case, there is no resolution to this problem other than to create a “free email” account with Gmail, YahooMail, Hotmail, etc. Provide CE Dojo with your new email address and we’ll update our records. Again, don’t forget to add us to your contact list!
