The rationale behind whole mouth health for
everyday prevention

 

Whole Mouth Health

The evolving understanding of mouth biology, modern patient demands and advances in oral care technology drive the need to consider ‘the next generation of prevention’ to achieve and maintain oral health. Colgate® believes this need is best met by a Whole Mouth Health approach that elevates the importance of oral prevention and of achieving better oral health outcomes for all patients.

Recommendations for the oral healthcare team

The 'Perio & Caries’ Project of EFP (The European Federation of Periodontology) builds on the outcomes of the expert workshop devoted to “The boundaries between dental caries and periodontal disease”, jointly organised by the EFP with ORCA (European Organisation for Caries Research).

The consensus reports supported by robust systematic reviews  provide a comprehensive scientific framework for how to understand and approach the simultaneous management of caries and periodontal diseases, including specific recommendations for every day prevention.
