Putting CAMBRA to Work: Easy as 1, 2, 3!
with special guest
Donna Brogan, RDH, BS
Caries Management by Risk Assessment (CAMBRA) is an evidence-based approach to prevent or treat caries at its’ early stages. CAMBRA has swept through the industry and is being taught in dental and dental hygiene programs across the country but this valuable tool is still under-utilized. Caries is a multi-factorial disease and research has found common risk factors that help determine a person’s likelihood of developing new or recurrent decay.
This course will discuss some of the most common risk factors and why they are so important to address clinically. Patient profiles will be used to demonstrate how easily you can put CAMBRA to work as a preventive tool in your practice. Attendees will learn how to quickly use the known risk factors, an exam, and a CAMBRA form, to classify the patient as low, moderate, or high risk.
After the course you will be able to…
1) Understand the theory of CAMBRA
2) Identify evidence-based risk factors and indicators for future carious lesions
3) Classify patients into low, moderate, and high risk categories
