Let's talk Oral Health - Implant dentistry and home-based oral care

The 6th episode of our webinar series will explore how home-based oral care is the key component to prevent peri-implantitis.

Peri-implantitis has been a growing predicament for years and yet, no firm consensus on its treatment has been agreed upon in the professional community. In such instance, prevention of the disease remains the mainstay and, as for periodontal conditions, resides in the patient’s daily oral care. In this webinar, Prof. Roos-Jansåker and Ms. Susan Wingrove will discourse on the basics of peri-implantitis and focus on the effective non-surgical treatments, including the patient’s role and how the professional can accompany the patient in this quest to prevent peri-implantitis or its relapse.

Prof. Ann-Marie Roos Jansåker - PhD, DDS. Associate professor, Malmö University, Sweden. Ann-Marie works as a senior consultant and collaborates with several universities in research into peri-implantitis and periodontitis. She is an associate professor at Malmö University and past president of the Swedish Society of Periodontology and Implantology. Her thesis "Long-time follow-up of dental implants and treatment of peri-implantitis" in 2007, received great international attention when peri-implantitis was not particularly recognized. A special interest is how the professional approach reflects on the patient and the ability of professionals to guide the patient in behavioral changes. She offers several courses and lectures both nationally and internationally every year.
