Study: Naproxen More Effective Than Hydrocodone-Acetaminophen After Dental Surgery

Q: Are your courses approved for CE by the Board?

CE Dojo is certified as a national provider of continuing education (CE) through the Academy of General Dentistry's (AGD) Program Approval For Continuing Education (PACE). Most state regulatory agencies recognize AGD PACE programs as legitimate sources for continuing education. We suggest you contact your specific state regulatory agency for further clarification if necessary.

More evidence that NSAIDs with or without acetaminophen are more effective in alleviating pain in the postoperative dental surgery pain model. A recent study from JBR Clinical research demonstrated some unanticipated findings:

“This study is important because the relative efficacy of these two commonly used pain medications has not been directly compared in a validated acute pain model, furthermore, this study is timely because options for reducing the use of opioids to control postoperative pain are highly desired and can provide clinicians with important alternatives when recommending appropriate analgesics.”
Todd Bertoch MD, CEO JBR Clinical Research

We would love to see a fixed OTC combination of naproxen with acetaminophen – much akin to Advil Dual Action – for the future!

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!
