Description:

Despite advancements in oral health care, the burden of oral diseases persists. Daily oral hygiene is an essential public health strategy for maintaining oral health, contributing to the well-being of individuals, and preventing the root cause of many common oral diseases associated with a dysbiotic microbiome. Active prevention through the use of advanced oral health products can play a pivotal role in reducing this burden by preventing the onset and progression of oral diseases and the development of potential systemic health issues linked to poor oral hygiene.

This symposium will focus on the evidence-based development of a unique stannous-powered formulation that has led to the improved performance benefits expected from modern oral care products. The value of preventative oral health multi-benefit regimens to ensure better whole mouth health outcomes will also be discussed.

Learn:

• examine the challenges related to the formulation of stannous fluoride dentifrices and the solutions that have been developed to address these drawbacks and deliver better oral health outcomes
• evaluate the evidence from clinical studies supporting the superior prevention and treatment benefits of a unique stannous fluoride toothpaste formulation compared to regular fluoride toothpaste
• discuss the impact of multi-benefits regimens to deliver plaque and gingivitis reduction above and beyond that of toothpaste alone
