🚨 🧠 BAD NEWS BEAR ALERT!!! 🧠 🚨If you are a hygienist with the mindset of providing comprehensive care,consider reading up on the pathogenicity of p. gingivalis. When we are coaching hygienists on comprehensive care, we think of this, not the financial benefit. Controlling biofilm and inflammation is the most important thing we can do! #comprehensivecare #biofilmmanagement #biofilm #preventivecare #dentalcare #dentalhygiene Mary Hughes RDH, BS Stephanie Palmer

👅 ⚕ Bridging the gap between oral and overall health is so important! As clinicians, we have the ability to make a difference in our patient's lives by identifying risk factors early on, educating our patients on the oral-systemic connection, and reducing the bacterial load by treating the inflammation!Mary Hughes RDH, BS Stephanie Palmer#oralsystemiclink #oralhealth #overallhealth #dentalhygiene #treatinginflammation #comprehensivecare #bridgethegaphttps://lnkd.in/e3fjPjKz

As dental hygienists, we have a responsibility to reduce the staggering number of people affected by tooth decay, which is one of the most common chronic diseases in the US. On National Fluoride Day, let's take a moment to recognize the importance of fluoride in preventing tooth decay in our patients. I encourage all dental hygienists to prioritize placing fluoride treatments to help combat this prevalent issue. Let's work together to promote better oral health for our patients. #NationalFluorideDay #OralHealthAwareness #DentalHygienist Follow my blog:https://lnkd.in/e3xjHJkM
