Over the last ten years, there has been an increased focus on oral and systemic health links. This course is designed to equip dental hygienists with the skills to implement a comprehensive approach to treating our patients while they are chairside.

Course objectives:
- Review Oral Pathologies that show evidence of systemic health issues
- Identify when to refer the patient out for blood work
