Dr. Matthew Masaki of Durango Dental Group commonly collaborates with medical practitioners to help his patients, with one diabetic patient standing out to him above the rest: "In 2020, a diabetic patient began receiving care at Durango Health Group. Previously, he was able to manage his diabetes, but his condition worsened over time. The nurse practitioner conducted an oral exam during every visit and noticed signs of periodontal infection. She urged him to see the dentist, but he didn't act until she noted a dangerously high A1c level of 11.4 in 2022. Understanding the gravity of the situation, she walked the patient over to Durango Dental Group where we confirmed an infection and scheduled oral surgery. The patient's A1c levels have since dropped to 8.4, and he is now making progress toward better health." #NationalDiabetesAwarenessMonth

Dental patients who suffer from diabetes can provide dentists with unique opportunities for education on the Mouth-Body Connection. Dental Hygienist Andrew Misak recently treated a diabetic patient and provided a unique treatment solution to help them take greater ownership of their oral health: "After I performed a comprehensive assessment of (the patient's) periodontal health, we talked about the potential contributors that could be affecting the health of their gums. An excess of oral bacteria could be exacerbating their HbA1c levels, so I performed an OralDNA test and reviewed the results with the patient. Now, they better understand how the presence of specific bacteria in their mouth can impact their overall health." With an approach to treatment through the Mouth-Body Connection, clinicians can connect with patients on a more personal level, and provide dental treatment catered toward their specific health care needs. #NationalDiabetesAwarenessMonth

As an understanding of the connection between oral and general health expands, medical practitioners are seeing the added benefits patients can have from a medical industry that works more closely with dental professionals and the larger dental industry. Not only does greater collaboration reduce patient costs and increase awareness around the importance of oral healthcare, but it allows dental practitioners to serve as the gateway to other healthcare services for patients. Read the latest from Rock Health's report on the case for a more collaborative healthcare industry, with contributions from PDS Health Vice President of Strategic Payor Partnerships Jeremy Jonckheere: https://spklr.io/6048alq0
