We will delve into the importance of effectively communicating the consequences of non-treatment and providing reliable information to patients with periodontitis.
Periodontal disease is a prevalent condition that often goes unnoticed by patients due to the absence of noticeable symptoms.

By the end of this course, you will have the tools and knowledge to engage patients in meaningful conversations about periodontal health. You will be equipped to address their concerns, dispel myths, and guide them towards making informed decisions for their oral health.
