No More Caries and Periodontal Disease! Biology for Prevention and Defense
To prevent dental caries and periodontal disease and protect a healthy mouth, the latest biology is needed.

If you can make your patients understand this key word, your patient management will be a great success. TBI to remove 100% plaque, is now obsolete. Patient management should be tailored to the pathogenicity of each patient's biofilm.

I find explaining why we use a specific oral cleaning tool or toothpaste during treatment is helpful to encourage successful behavior.
In this lecture, I will expand on how I have implemented this in my clinical practice and elaborate on my findings.
