Course:“Teenagers—What Their Mouths are telling you but they’re not: Practical Information on Teen Health Issues”
The current and sometimes shocking health behaviors and trends in the younger generation can influence their oral and systemic health. The dental professional has an opportunity during the dental visit to identify risk behaviors and intervene with the teenager to make positive health choices. Participants will engage in a lively discussion on timely topics relating to teens. Dialogue will include oral and overall health issues associated with cola/sports drink consumption, eating disorders, obesity and substance abuse (Meth Mouth). Examining high-risk behaviors and gender differences prepare the dental professional to initiate conversations that will provide guidance.
