  • Good info

    But the speaker sounds like a robot. I always turn off within 2 min. Very impersonal, even though her voice is nice, it is too automated sounding. The pauses between the thoughts are so short, it is exhausting while listening—she doesn’t have time to breath!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Audio Article: Mental Health Spotlight - Grief Can Make Holiday Dental Appointments Not so Jolly and Bright
Q: What advice do you have for sparking a conversation with dental patients about grief during the holidays?
It's important to establish trust and rapport before discussing serious topics. Most survivors welcome conversations about their deceased loved one, and it helps to talk about them.
Hygiene Chat: The Adjunctive Use of Mouthrinse
Q: What is the key takeaway from the research you and your team have conducted?
There is a significant benefit to the adjunctive use of mouth rinse when combined with mechanical measures for improved oral health outcomes.
Hygiene Chat: The Adjunctive Use of Mouthrinse
Q: How does a mechanical-only home care routine of brushing and flossing compare to a mechanical routine combined with a chemotherapeutic mouth rinse?
Mechanical plaque control is limited by the user's technique, while a mouth rinse can enhance effectiveness, especially in those who struggle with proper flossing.
Hygiene Chat: The Adjunctive Use of Mouthrinse
Q: Can you please start by giving a touch of a background on the burden of global oral disease and the role prevention plays in mitigating these rising trends?
The most common oral conditions are periodontal disease and caries, largely preventable, but have seen a 25 percent increase in prevalence despite improvements in oral health services.
Audio Article: Life as a Lefty - Perspective From a Left-Handed Hygienist
Q: What advice would you give to left-handed hygiene students?
Teaching both right-handed and left-handed methods needs to be part of the curriculum.
