#244: Neuroanatomy of Pain Control - From Theory to Clinical Mastery in Dental Hygiene

from Dental Hygiene Student Podcast with The Happy Flosser RDH · host Billie Lunt RDH MSDH

Attention Dental Hygiene Students - This episode breaks down the neuroanatomy of pain control in a way that helps dental hygiene students understand why local anesthesia works, how nerves transmit pain, and what clinicians must consider when applying this knowledge chairside. We connect foundational neuroscience to everyday clinical decision‑making so students can move from memorization to confident practice.In this episode, I want to help you build the confidence you need to rely on your foundational knowledge of neuroanatomy.
