Course Description:

 

A major focus for Dental Hygienists is to help our clients shift from a pathogenic biofilm to a healthier, more balanced biofilm by utilizing the many adjunctive therapies that are available to us.   The challenge lies in helping our clients to prolong and maintain that healthier balance and stop the progression of disease.

 

The supportive role of Oral Probiotics has been researched for more than 30 years. This extensive research has come to light mainly in the past 10 years with a focus on ear, nose and throat health, as well as its impact on halitosis, candida, periodontal disease and tooth decay.  Join me as we explore an emerging trend in oral health that can help influence and promote oral microbial balance to improve outcomes of periodontal disease, halitosis, caries and more.

 

Course Objectives:

 

  • Learn how a healthy oral microbiome is compromised.
  • Explore the large body of scientific evidence in support of oral probiotics.
  • Identify the specific pathogens targeted by various oral probiotic strains to guide you in your treatment plan recommendations for clients who suffer from periodontal disease, caries and halitosis. 
  • Identify a particular strain of oral probiotic that can help reduce the incidence of ear and throat infections.
  • Gain insight to the impact and benefits that Oral Probiotics can provide to oral and overall health.
