Last year I had the pleasure of attending the Voices of Dentistry Podcasting Summit, and was delighted to sit down and spend some time with the one and only Gary Takacs. Gary is a seasoned podcaster, consultant, educator, and all around great guy!

I wanted to pick Gary’s brain about what questions a person should ask themselves when they are faced with choosing a dentist and dental...

To make matters worse, she’s not getting any additional help from her dental office when she visits for her kids twice a year cleaning and exam! “Just brush and floss and get fluoride treatments” were what she was instructed to do…but the problem is, she was ALREADY doing that.  MULTIPLE times a day!

Healthy Mouth Healthy Life Podcast

Xylitol is one of the things I talk about with anyone who will listen!  It has so many uses and misconceptions. People question the name and often confuse it with artificial sweeteners so they disregard it. But it isn’t a chemical artificial sweetener at all, it is a sugar that is found in birch trees and corn cobs...it also happens to be something that our body creates naturally, and supplementing with it in the mouth helps stop cavities SIGNIFICANTLY! The magic of xylitol is best realized when you understand WHY it works, and to best explain that I brought in Shirley Gutkowski....

Today’s episode has Angie Stone with us again, but this time it’s on location at CAREERfusion 2017 in Daytona Beach, FL!

I wanted to capture the moment of CAREERfusion, because as an out of the box thinking hygienist, I’ve been told for many years by many peers that “I just needed to be there”. It took me years to, and thanks to the DebbieZ Pay It Forward Fund, I was chosen this year as a scholarship recipient!

Angie and I spend time talking about what has helped her outside of the box career, where HyLife Oral Health Alliance is going, and what prompted her to write “Dying From Dirty Teeth” (Amazon Best Seller).

She believes CAREERfusion is unique because nowhere else will you find the people who have the ability to help move you in the direction you that you are built for. It also can propel your career in ways you’d never imagine. It’s like a specialized tribe for dental hygienists!

We get into the importance of pivoting when needed and investing in yourself

Angie gives us the update on HyLife Oral Health Alliance (HOHA)

and explains how hygienists can get involved with her company and mission. As a HyLife Oral Care Specialist, hygienists can see residents for brushing and in between the teeth cleaning (this is not dental hygiene)

With hygienists acting as caregivers and the care team administering xylitol not only is oral health improved, but life span and quality of life can be greatly enhanced! 30% of pneumonia is aspiration pneumonia. When mouth bacteria build up, it can be inhaled during coughing and choking.  When that bacteria hits the lungs, we’ve got issues!

Having an Oral Care Specialist on your team helps increase the value of life, impact the quality of life and enhance the client experience! Do it for the resident, the resident’s family and the care team!
