Anti-oxidants oral health protection and aesthetics from within
Nutritional counselling within the dental practice traditionally involves a singular, simplistic message to patients regarding the evils of sugar and acid intake – basically what to avoid in order to reduce the risk of developing dental caries.
In this ground-breaking discussion Dr Myles Holt introduces the concept of educating patients on what they can eat and drink, together with actions Dentists can take, in order to actively prevent rather than avoid both dental disease and the growing scourge of chronic illnesses such as diabetes, heart disease and cancer.
Dr Holt discusses the role inflammation and free-radicals play in chronic illness and outlines topical and systemic treatments that Dentists can prescribe for patients to ensure they are optimally protected and maintain health and vitality throughout life.
