Texas / current education
Learn with SAE in Texas.
Texas is SAE’s current course market. Browse the published catalog for live prices, formats and course details, then check the Board requirements that apply to your permit.
Texas requirements stay Texas-specific.SAE’s current course names, hours and clinical pathways reflect Texas rules. They do not automatically transfer to another state. Review TSBDE continuing education guidance.
Know what your course covers
Read course details and distinguish online education from any separate clinical, permit, life-support or facility obligations.
Utah / future education
A Utah pathway is taking shape.
SAE is exploring renewal education for Utah dentists and practical team learning. We are confirming curriculum, delivery format and state acceptance before any course can open.
What the regulator saysUtah DOPL lists 30 CE hours for dental license renewal. Its guidance includes at least 2 relevant hours for minimal sedation permit holders, or 4 didactic hours and 10 completed sedation cases for moderate sedation permit holders. These are the state’s requirements, not a claim that an SAE course meets them. Read DOPL renewal guidance (reviewed 1 Nov 2026).
Minimal Sedation Renewal Education
Proposed education on assessment, enteral pharmacology, monitoring and escalation. Curriculum and accepted hours remain under review.

Video pending clinical review and productionNo playback or completion credit
Planned topics: state renewal context; patient assessment; enteral medication risks; monitoring; emergency recognition; case-based review. Assessment and completion methods will be validated before launch.
Moderate Sedation Renewal Education
Proposed didactic learning on evaluation, monitoring, rescue readiness and documentation. Required cases remain separate from online education.

Video pending clinical review and productionNo playback or completion credit
Planned topics: risk assessment; pharmacology; monitoring and deterioration; airway and rescue principles; team scenarios; records. SAE will not treat viewed or simulated cases as completed clinical cases.
Dental & orthodontic team foundations
Potential general education in communication, roles and emergency escalation. It would not certify expanded functions or clinical skill.
Ohio / future education
Built around Ohio’s needs.
SAE is researching an emergency education course for moderate sedation permit renewal and a separate assistant monitoring pathway. Course-specific acceptance and delivery rules must be confirmed first.
What the regulator saysOhio’s moderate sedation rule calls for 6 hours of specifically Board-approved education on emergency prevention or management for permit renewal, along with other obligations. SAE has not established approval for a proposed Ohio course. Read OAC 4715-5-07 (reviewed 1 Nov 2026).
Moderate Sedation Emergency Prevention & Management
Proposed education on prevention, recognition, response and team drills. Board approval for this exact course has not been established.

Video pending clinical review and productionNo playback or completion credit
Planned topics: risk assessment; early recognition; airway emergencies; cardiovascular and medication events; team roles; integrated scenarios. Adult and pediatric qualification remain distinct.
Nitrous Oxide Monitoring Education for Assistants
Potential training for eligible dental assistants. Ohio’s rule requires a qualifying sponsor, course, examination, BLS and experience; this concept is not an authorization to administer nitrous oxide.
View proposed course detail
Video pending clinical review and productionNo playback or completion credit
Planned topics include pain and anxiety, respiration, nitrous effects, monitoring, complications, exposure and legal boundaries. SAE must verify specialized sponsor and online-delivery eligibility.
Dental & orthodontic team foundations
Potential general education for practice teams. It would not replace credentialing, supervision or hands-on requirements.
