Protect It Dental Emergency Readiness Check

Emergency Readiness Audit

Dental emergency readiness audit

Is your practice ready before it matters?

A guided audit for dental practices to review emergency medications, equipment quantities, AED asset tracking, expirations, kit access, AED/Oxygen readiness, team roles, training, and sedation-level-specific requirements for nitrous oxide, moderate sedation, deep sedation, or general anesthesia.

Practice profile

Start with basic risk context so the audit can make useful recommendations.

Count the rooms or chairs where patients receive dental treatment. This helps estimate practice size and emergency-readiness needs.

Your state helps tailor AED and sedation-readiness questions where applicable.

No sedation is the minimum baseline. Nitrous-only, minimal sedation, moderate sedation, and deep/general anesthesia add progressively more monitoring, airway, medication, documentation, and training review items.

Sedation & high-risk medications

This section reviews emergency-readiness items that may apply based on the highest sedation level provided in the practice.

State-specific sedation readiness
Based on your state and sedation level, these questions may help identify items your practice should review, such as permits, monitoring, emergency drugs, documentation, and team readiness. This audit is an educational readiness tool and is not legal advice.

Current kit status

Owning a kit is not the same as being ready. This checks location, access, ownership, and inspection cadence.

Medication inventory

This uses separate core and sedation/advanced formularies so non-sedation offices are not scored on irrelevant items.

Reversal-agent readiness

Confirm opioid and benzodiazepine reversal agents separately from the core medication inventory.

AED, oxygen & emergency supplies

Readiness includes more than medication: equipment quantities, AED tracking, Oxygen, masks, suction, first aid supplies, and documentation matter.

Team response & documentation

Can the team find, use, document, and restock everything during and after an emergency?
