Welcome to Broward Dental Academy
Meet Professor Harry Panahi
Oral Surgery
Oral Surgery Training Program
Support Precision. Protect Safety. Master Surgical Dentistry.
Oral surgery is where clinical precision, sterile discipline, and coordinated teamwork come together.
From routine extractions to complex surgical procedures, oral surgery requires highly trained professionals who understand instrumentation, aseptic protocol, anesthesia workflow, and postoperative care.
At Broward Dental Academy, our Oral Surgery Training Program prepares students to confidently assist in surgical environments — whether in advanced general practices or oral and maxillofacial specialty settings.
This program elevates your clinical awareness and positions you as a trusted surgical support professional.
Oral surgery is not casual dentistry.
It is controlled, technical, and highly coordinated care.
And well-trained surgical assistants are indispensable.
What You Will Master in Oral Surgery Training
Foundations of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
You will develop a foundational understanding of:
- Indications for extractions
- Impacted teeth and surgical removal

Understanding the clinical rationale behind surgical intervention allows you to anticipate procedural flow and enhance patient safety.
Surgical Instrumentation & Setup
Precision begins with preparation.
You will learn:
- Identification of surgical instruments (forceps, elevators, retractors)
- Proper surgical tray organization
- Sterile field setup
- Instrument transfer in a surgical environment
- Maintaining aseptic technique
Surgical discipline separates routine assisting from advanced surgical support.
Anesthesia & Sedation Support
Patient comfort and safety are paramount in oral surgery.
You will gain knowledge in:
- Local anesthesia principles

- Suturing principles and removal
Knowledge of surgical progression allows you to anticipate the doctor’s needs and maintain procedural efficiency.
Postoperative Care & Complication Management
The procedure does not end when the surgery is complete.
You will develop skills in:
- Delivering postoperative instructions
- Recognizing complications such as dry socket or infection
- Managing follow-up appointments
- Supporting pain management protocols
- Documentation and compliance procedures
Clear communication during recovery improves outcomes and patient trust.
Infection Control & Surgical Asepsis
Oral surgery demands the highest infection control standards.
You will reinforce:
- Advanced sterilization protocols
- Surgical asepsis principles
- Instrument processing for surgical cases
- Waste management compliance
- OSHA and CDC surgical standards
A surgical assistant must maintain strict infection control discipline at all times.
