Join the conversation by sharing the hashtag: #DICAM22. This year, our theme is “Staying in The Know Together.” Our goal at OSAP is to serve as the leading provider of infection prevention and control education, training, and credentialing that supports The Safest Dental Visit. There is no better way to do that than by emphasizing and utilizing our community. We can learn from each other and spread the knowledge faster, together. Through #DICAM22, we want to give the dental community informative and engaging materials to show how to Stay in The Know about the latest dental infection control guidelines to ensure that every dental visit is The Safest Dental Visit.
