The importance of preventive care. Robust infection control and the rise in teledentistry. The value and potential of medical-dental integration.
Dental providers had a unique (and firsthand) perspective on the many changes the COVID-19 pandemic brought to the oral health industry. A new article in the Journal of the American Dental Association explores these changes and will serve as the foundation for a timely webinar on the topic. The lead author on the article, a chief dental officer, and a physician-dentist will unpack practical learnings and share poignant reflections during an interactive discussion. The trio of speakers will look ahead to the future of oral and public health and explore new insights on emergency and pandemic preparedness that can inform planning for future disruptions in care.
Learning Objectives:
- Recognize how lessons gleaned from disruptions at Federally Qualified Health Centers can inform changes in the broader oral health industry.
- Discuss the unique and promising opportunities in medical-dental integration, teledentistry, and minimally invasive dentistry created by the pandemic.
- Discuss how the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted oral health care delivery and revealed gaps in dental public health emergency preparedness and response.
- Explain how transitions in dental care caused by the pandemic galvanize opportunities to pursue health equity.
