Show Notes


In this episode, Kevin Henry interviews Lisa Heaton from CareQuest Institute for Oral Health about the importance of health screenings in dental practices. They discuss the disconnect between patients’ willingness to undergo screenings and the low percentage of patients actually receiving them. They also highlight the role of dental assistants in facilitating these screenings and reducing patient anxiety. The conversation emphasizes the link between oral health and overall health, and the potential impact of screenings on preventing medical emergencies in the dental practice.
