If I wanted a copy of the PowerPoint presentation in this video how would I go about getting one?

This is really great. Thanks for posting this. I'm about to go for my local anesthetic class, as GA finally got it passed for RDH. However I noticed several contradictions for the max dose limits noted for several of the LAs. Articaine is listed as having a max dose of 10 cartridges and a MRD of 9 cartridges. Is there a difference between the max dose and the MRD?
