Community dental health coordinators are usually trained at community colleges using an online curriculum developed by the American Dental Association, according to a Sept. 21 news release.
The main responsibilities of community dental health coordinators involve educating and directing patients to proper dental services to improve overall oral health.
The program lasted 12 months and was taught by Sam Wakim, DMD, the chief dental officer of Zufall Health.
At the Becker's 5th Annual Future of Dentistry Roundtable, taking place September 14-15 in Chicago, dental leaders and executives will gain insights into emerging technologies, practice growth strategies and the evolving landscape of dental care delivery, with a focus on innovation, patient experience and operational excellence.
