SUMMARY:Webinar: Nutrition and Oral Health — It's a Two-Way street
DESCRIPTION:Nutrition and oral health are closely linked. The relationship between oral health and nutrition is bidirectional. While diet and nutrition affect the health of the mouth\, poor oral health can also impact dietary intake and nutrients consumed. The overall aim of this webinar is to provide an overview of the impact of diet on oral health. \nLearning objectives: \n\nExplore the role of various nutrients as related to growth and development\, and oral health/diseases.\nDiscuss the relationship between oral health and systemic health.\nExplain the link between fermentable carbohydrates and the development of dental cavities.\nUnderstand appropriate dietary modifications to prevent dental cavities and maintain good oral health.\nDiscuss the importance of basic dietary counseling in dental practice with regard to oral diseases.\n\nCE Categories: A1\, A2\, E2 \nClick here to register

SUMMARY:2023/24 Virtual Study Club — Session 2
DESCRIPTION:Bugs\, Pus\, and Symbiosis\, Oh My! with Professor Penny Hatzimanolakis. \nChronic low-grade infections in the mouth elevate systemic inflammation and have an impact on all body systems. The mouth is further linked with the rest of the body when considering the impact of numerous conditions like oral airway\, sleep apnea\, TMD and headaches\, dental caries infections\, periodontal and oral cancer\, to name a few. The understanding of the bidirectional connections is rapidly evolving\, and primary oral healthcare providers and organizations are striving to improve ways to deliver healthcare more efficiently and effectively using current\, evidence-informed methodologies. \nIt is no longer acceptable to minimize or ignore the inflammatory burden and bacterial load that is placed on the overall health of the body by oral diseases. This program will review the current scientific literature on dental diseases and their association with systemic health. The program will support the participant with screening\, approaches and management of oralsystemic connections into clinical practice to achieve comprehensive patient-centred care plans. \nEDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES \n\nIdentify the primary oral-systemic connections\nUnderstand the difference between the health status of Symbiosis or Dysbiosis\nWhat risk indicators/factors play the most significant role in oral and overall health?\nIs there a difference between leaky gut and leaky gums syndrome?\nIntroduce and discuss the various types of oral-systemic health screenings\n\nNot a 2023/24 Virtual Study Club member?
