Beyond Teeth – Oral Health Connections to Common Diseases

Beyond Teeth Series–Patient Education

Harm from dental diseases extends beyond teeth, especially for people who face additional medical challenges such as cancer or diabetes. Many are unaware of the connection until dental treatment becomes medically necessary. Download these fact sheets to distribute to your patients.

We also have a Health Checklist to use along with those sheets. Patients can have the opportunity to check off various health issues they or a family member may have. This way you know what your patient’s needs are from the start.
