The right fit is important whether it’s our clothes, shoes, work and oral health. In 2017, a new CDT code created the right fit to finally treat gingivitis after decades of merely dumping gingival inflammation into the same category as health. It’s time to shift dentistry focus from finding the cavity to treating the caries pH infection disease. Watching and waiting for breakdown makes no sense. Saliva is one of the body’s most effective means for protecting the tooth enamel to be a pH buffer against acid. This CE webinar focuses on early treatment using up-to-date right fit technologies and systems and the latest in remineralization therapies.
Upon completion of this course, the participant should be able to: • Identify 3 minimally invasive levels of new prevention • Integrate risk assessment routinely into practice for all patients • Incorporate home pH assessment for patients to see, own and change their infections • Develop a patient-centric right fit remineralization therapy plan to sustain bio-available calcium ion level within the patient’s saliva
