Nutrition For The Dental Team
Tieraona Low Dog, MD


A growing body of evidence now shows the direct link between nutrition and oral health. However, many dental professionals feel inadequately prepared to effectively counsel patients on healthy eating. This informative and fact-filled lecture will explore how macronutrients, micronutrients, glycemic index/load, dietary patterns and sugar substitutes impact oral health, periodontal disease and overall health. Learn the cutting-edge science behind the recommendations.

Learning objectives:
Participants will be able to:

  • Understand the role of macronutrients in health and chronic disease.
  • Understand how poor glycemic control exacerbates periodontal disease and contributes to diabetes, heart disease and cancer.
  • Identify the key components of glycemic index and glycemic load.
  • Understand the relationship between cardiovascular and periodontal disease.
  • Describe the key components of a diet that can reduce the risk of heart disease and certain cancers.
  • Discuss the relationship between obesity, inflammation, insulin resistance, periodontal disease and other chronic diseases.
  • Counsel patients about sugar and sugar substitutes.
