Today is an interesting discussion because it is foundational to everything that we see as dental professionals. We are talking myofunctional therapy but with babies. I am joined today by Leslie and Heidi again but they also brought in Paula Norcott who works as a lactation consultant. We covered lots of topics and it was such an interesting conversation that we broke it up into two episodes. We talk about what the evaluation looks like, whether the issues are mechanical or anatomical and what is happening causing the issues to arise, we talked about body work and what that means.

Cavities are for dentists, perio is for the RDH, right? Unfortunately lots of people people actually believe this! There is no room to just stay in our lanes on this one so please listen to Katrina Sanders as she answers, "Do cavities affect periodontal disease?"

On this episode Andrew Johnston, RDH talks about the level of influence clinicians have in their own operatory. We don't need to rely on the person who has the most clicks or the most likes, we can rely on ourselves to get our patients happier and healthier. andrew@ataleoftwohygienists.com

What do you do when you're sick? There is an expectation that you will just power through it and get to work but ethically you should NOT be spreading disease. That is a tough one... In this Ask The Experts we cover recovery time - is getting plenty of rest and fluids really helpful?
