Tobacco harm reduction core element of periodontal therapy, says head doctor
FRANKFURT AM MAIN, Germany: Experts are calling for the integration of tobacco harm reduction (THR) strategies into dental care. Prof. Dirk Ziebolz, head doctor at University of Leipzig Medical Center in Germany, says that dental professionals in the EU are in a position to inform their patients about THR, but are currently lacking knowledge on the subject. When it comes to regulatory support, health authorities in the US are pushing ahead with the cautious adoption of THR products, but those in the EU have been accused of showing a failure of innovation and courage by omitting them from policy-making. from Dental https://www.dental-tribune.com/news/tobacco-harm-reduction-core-element-of-periodontal-therapy-says-head-doctor/ via http://www.rssmix.com/

Occupational risk of dentists in Norway examined in new study
OSLO, Norway: The widespread availability of vaccines in developed nations has significantly changed the risk of dentists contracting SARS-CoV-2 in a workplace setting. Prior to this, however, dentists and other workers in other occupations that typically involve close contact were widely believed to be at a relatively high risk of developing COVID-19. A new study out of Norway has sought to examine this idea further by comparing how this risk differed across occupations between the country’s two COVID-19 waves in 2020. from Dental https://www.dental-tribune.com/news/occupational-risk-of-dentists-in-norway-examined-in-new-study/ via http://www.rssmix.com/
