The Oral-Systemic Connection: A State of the Clinical Science and Dental Practice
Dr. Nabil Bissada has taught at the school for over 35 years and is currently Chairman of the Department of Periodontics. Recent scientific findings have provided compelling evidence regarding the impact or oral/ periodontal infection/inflammation on the overall health of the individual. Dental health professionals are, therefore, in a position to promote health behaviors to help the global efforts in reducing the risk for a host of serious and sometimes life-threatening medical problems such as coronary artery disease and rheumatoid arthritis. The results of these and other recent studies at Case Western Reserve University and their clinical implications for dental and medical practices will be presented.
