Training

Our specialized training programs for dental professionals provide up-to-date information on HIPAA, OSHA and HOW. Training courses are now available both online and in-person.


OSHA — Occupational Safety and Health Administration
Fulfill your annual training requirements with one of our ‘Safety Doesn’t Happen By Accident’ OSHA training courses. Choose from our condensed two (2) hour course or our expanded four (4) hour course. Both courses are comprehensive and interactive trainings that cover the five (5) standards required by OSHA for dental offices:

  • Bloodborne Pathogens
  • Hazard Communication
  • Ionizing Radiation
  • Exit Routes
  • Electrical Standards


HIPAA — Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act
Our 'Basics and Beyond' HIPAA course is a three (3) hour collaborative training that arms you and your staff with information to help safeguard your practice and protect your patients’ rights. This course provides an in-depth look at the current Privacy and Security Rules, as well as several other topics relevant to your dental practice.

HOW® — Health through Oral Wellness enhanced benefits
Health through Oral Wellness® (HOW®) is available to subscribers and their dependents in more than 8,500 fully-insured Delta Dental of Oklahoma groups. Our one (1) hour course introduces practice staff to the clinical assessment tool approved to determine if an eligible member is able to receive additional preventive benefits. Additional information about HOW is available here.

All of the trainings outlined provide Category B Continuing Education (CE) credit for dentists and hygienists who participate.
