Last month, Roseman University held its monthly free educational series – Neighborhood Health Series. The topic for October was Bolstering Oral Health in Patient Populations Including Those Medically Fragile: The Path to Healthier Mouths & Bodies.
The connection between oral health and overall health is well-documented, yet it often takes a backseat amidst other life and health challenges. Attendees gained valuable insights into the latest practices in daily oral care, cavity and disease prevention, and the importance of early detection of oral health issues.
They also discovered how our Roseman Dental Clinic, in collaboration with Cure 4 The Kids Foundation (C4K), provides specialized care for medically fragile patients, including those battling cancer, living with compromised immune systems, or managing complex medication regimens. Additionally, the session highlighted the tailored approaches used to address the unique needs of geriatric patients and individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
