Did you learn that floss is the magic elixir preventing everything from caries to bone loss? Or perhaps you are still providing ‘routine care’ – such as prophys, fluoride treatments, and radiographs. While education provides the foundation, it depreciates over time as new research, therapies, and treatments emerge. This course will empower you to move out of your comfort zone and feel confident adopting new evidence-based strategies for everyday patient care.
11-12:30 Lunch
12:30- 3:30 Emerging Trends in Linking Oral and Systemic Health
Does having periodontal disease increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, pre-term birth, cancer, or even Alzheimer’s disease? Multiple studies have found that periodontal disease is associated with cardiovascular disease. Recent findings in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute found that severe periodontitis was associated with a 24% increased risk for cancer. This course will review current evidence on the link between oral and systemic health and provide talking points for communicating this information to our patients.
