Course Description

This two-hour online program gives interpreters the concepts and vocabulary needed for dental restoration encounters, fillings, crowns, and bridges.

This program will:

  • Review the anatomy and physiology of the mouth and dentition
  • Describe the process of filling a cavity, making a crown, or fitting a dental bridge
  • Identify the questions that dentists will routinely ask during these procedures as well as the aftercare instructions that patients may receive

These exercises will be complemented by the use of a bilingual glossary of dental hygiene terminology available in Arabic, Cantonese (Traditional Chinese), Korean, Mandarin (Traditional and Simplified), Russian, Spanish, or Vietnamese.
