"Nutritonal Counseling at the Dental Visit"
Course Description:
Nutritional Counseling at the dental visit – Food for thought!
Dental hygienists are health care educators in the dental setting. Oral hygiene instruction includes diet and nutritional counseling for the prevention and/or treatment of oral diseases. We will define the impact of diet on oral health, look at dietary contributors to disease, assess patients for nutrition-related risks and learn strategies as to how dietary counseling may help to mitigate these risks.
"OHI-FYI: An Update"
Course Description:
Brush-up on OHI - it's more than a toothbrush!
Oral hygiene instruction (OHI) for your patients should include assessment, motivational interviewing, technology and evidence-based approaches and recommendations for individualizing your patient’s home care.
Patient’s compliance with your home care instruction can be challenging but critical to gain and maintain optimal oral and systemic health.
Join us for an informational, educational and fun look at how we can create positive changes in our patient’s oral health at the dental hygiene visit.
