What Emergency Medicine Providers Want Dentists to Know About Opioids

Emergency departments have a unique perspective on how to employ strategies to promote the judicious use of opioids and prioritize nonopioid multimodal evidence-based care when managing acute pain. Emergency medicine providers have adopted a targeted approach to acute pain with a focus on appropriate transitions of care for continued treatment. There is a shift in emergency care to equip all providers with the tools necessary to tailor acute pain management, break pain crises, and educate the community on nonopioid strategies for pain and appropriate follow up. Learn about the emergency medicine provider’s perspective on opioids, effective pain management, and why streamlined referral programs are essential to patients receiving appropriate dental care
