Guardian: Beyond Teeth – Oral Health Connections to Common Diseases

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.

Guardian, together with DLN, launched Beyond Teeth, an educational initiative intended to help your patients learn more about the various effects other diseases can have on their oral health, and how to take preventative measures. We encourage you to download and provide these informational handouts to your patients.
