Understanding Heart Health-The Role of Inflammation
4 CEUs – Good for the whole dental team!
Live webinars are considered live credits, not distance learning.
Course Description:
This course will review the anatomy and physiology of the cardiovascular system, including what can be learned from blood workups about inflammation, understanding the electrical system of the heart and what EKGs can show. Cardiovascular nutrition and the gut biome will also be discussed at length. The dental team must be made aware of the relationship between the cardiovascular system and oral health. Poor oral health can directly correlate to poor cardiovascular health. It is also important to understand the possible deleterious consequences of pathogenic systemic release due to dental procedures and areas most likely affected by such procedures. This course will also address the dental team’s role in identifying possible cardiovascular pathological antecedents.
