and Lori Grace, MA
Sunrise Center
Please note, for all in-person programs wearing a mask is required. We will be physically distancing. Hand sanitizer is available.
Discussion will cover general information about teeth, gums, mouth, bite alignment and jaw. Understanding the challenges that exist and how best to modify techniques will be shared, including what optimal oral health is and DIY home care tools and solutions improve your overall dental and physical health.
Lori will be joining Samira with a PowerPoint and discussion that shows clearly how our mouths are portals for systemic diseases we can get, like cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer’s, and cancer. She will show you how you can detect, to some degree, early stages of a disease through examining your own mouth and teeth or those of someone you care about. She will also be sharing new information about oral HPV and HPV-related throat, head and neck cancers, which are increasing rapidly in the population.
This course will give specific take-home tips and ideas to improve technique, explore new avenues for optimizing home care and demystify which products or tools are best for you.
