In the face of this, oral and maxillofacial surgeons and their teams have adopted safe opioid prescribing practices. The epidemic is evolving and so must the response. This 90-minute webinar will update participants on opioid and other substance use and provide actionable steps to build on safe opioid prescribing with universal screening, reducing stigma and supporting recovery.
