This episode discusses the connection between dental hygiene and heart health and how critical the dental hygienist's role is in risk assessment.
Melissa chats with our guest, Tiffany Dillion, as she shares her heartfelt story on why she became an EMT in addition to a Dental Hygienist. Tiffany will inspire you to re-calibrate with screenings we are taught to perform and the link between periodontal disease and heart health. Tiffany shares how critical it is to implement life-saving screenings and how RDH can help prevent heart attacks through proper medical intake, assessments, oral care patient education, and real-world strategies to elevate the care we provide our patients.
Tiffany's company, Scaling Up Innovations, offers BLS courses for dental practices.
