Podcasts about Periodontology

In the latest episode of the Next ReGeneration podcast, hosts Anina and Elena welcome Mia Geisinger, Professor and Director of the Advanced Education Program in periodontology at the University of Alabama (USA) and current President of the American Academy of Periodontology, for a conversation packed with fresh perspectives.   Geisinger shares her excitement about the shift toward precision and patient-centered medicine in periodontal regeneration. She discusses how our focus is expanding from biomaterials and surgical techniques to a broader understanding of the whole patient, from systemic conditions and inflammatory burden to site-specific challenges. The conversation dives into AI-assisted diagnostics, personalised treatment planning, and the evolving role of dental education in preparing practitioners for a more integrated, tech-enabled future. She also offers practical advice for clinicians starting their journey into regeneration and why mentorship still matters in a high-tech world.

In the latest episode of the Next ReGeneration podcast, hosts Anina and Elena welcome Filippo Graziani, Professor of Periodontology at the University of Pisa, Italy. Together, they take you on a journey into the connection between oral and overall health, exploring how a healthy mouth can influence the entire body.  Graziani discusses research showing that periodontal therapy can significantly support glycaemic control in diabetic patients. He also highlights findings of oral bacteria in atheromatous plaques, illustrating the potential connection between periodontitis and cardiovascular disease.  Periodontitis can furthermore trigger systemic inflammation, thereby aggravating diabetes and increasing heart disease risk. In fact, 57 systemic diseases have already been associated with periodontitis, says Graziani.  As such, periodontal therapy not only improves patients' quality of life — it may even support cognitive functions.  How far can periodontal treatment go in shaping general health outcomes?

In the latest episode of the Next ReGeneration podcast, hosts Anina and Elena welcome Ian Needleman, Professor of Periodontology and Healthcare Research at UCL Eastman Dental Institute in London, UK. A passionate runner himself, Needleman has devoted substantial research to exploring the oral health of athletes and its impact on their performance and overall well-being.   Needleman shares fascinating insights from his assessments of athletes' oral health during the London 2012 Olympic Games. His studies consistently reveal that elite athletes frequently suffer from poor oral health, a phenomenon observed across both developing and developed nations. Although the exact mechanisms linking oral health to sports performance are not yet fully understood, inflammation seems to be a key factor. Needleman's research underscores that enhancing oral health can significantly boost athletic performance.

Join David Herrera, chair of the European Workshop Committee, Mariano Sanz, co-chair of the Perio Workshop 2023, and ADEE past president, Pål Barkvoll, as they delve into the key outcomes of Perio Workshop 2023. The workshop brought together 70 leading international experts from 22 countries, and the purpose of the gathering was to discuss and establish a new consensus on undergraduate, specialist training, and continuing education in periodontology. In this episode, our guests discuss with Bruno de Carvalho the changes in the discipline (such as those brought about by the 2018 classification of periodontal and peri implant diseases, or the publication of different clinical practice guidelines developed by the EFP) and advances in educational methods and technologies (such as the development of new tools accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic) that made it necessary to update the previous workshop from 2009. The consensus report of the second European consensus workshop on education in periodontology has just been published in the Journal of Clinical Periodontology.

I learned not too long ago that Dr. Al Danenberg, who was a Holistic Periodontist and Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner, passed away on August 2nd from post-COVID-19 complications from multiple myeloma. Last year, Dr. Danenberg had privately messaged me that his cancer had come back, but that it was not stopping him from his advocacy. I shared some kind words for his new book, "Eat As If Your Life Depends On It."I was very happy to know he was well enough to be part of the Carnivore Summit. As a tribute for his work and advocacy, we're sharing his interview publicly on our channel. He also graciously shared freebies for the Summit. We want his work to be shared far and wide and they have been added to the Resources section below. I also interview Dr. Danenberg in early 2022. You can find the episode here. Dr. Danenberg's passion for periodontics in general — and for the LANAP protocol combined with his emphasis on evolutionary nutrition in particular — is palpable. He gave seminars regarding the cutting-edge concepts of nutrition and laser treatment to the general public and was happy to spread the word among his fellow professionals. He was a member of many dental and periodontal organizations, including the American Academy of Periodontology and the American Academy of Implant Dentistry.We discuss the following:All about Dr. Al DanenbegOral health and overall healthMouth is the mirror of the gutPeriodontal diseaseProtocol to healDiet recommendationJaw bones and tartarJaw shapesCarnivore diet and oral healthInformation for oral and gut healthDental amalgamsRoot canalDiagnosed with multiple myelomaDr. Al's website_____RESOURCESWebsite: https://drdanenberg.com/ Life's Transition Letter: https://drdanenberg.com/an-open-letter-to-my-readers-preparing-for-lifes-transition/ Eat As If Your Life Depends On It: https://amzn.to/3qVqskU The Better Belly Blueprint: https://amzn.to/3L5Rhtp Dr. Al's Carnivore Summit Freebies: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1H53NitQEogYR3nOE7CdKYpL0KpMXsgub?usp=sharing Carnivore Summit: https://www.carnivoresummit.co/ ____CHECK OUT MY BOOK, Carnivore CureCHECK OUT MY SECOND BOOK, The Complete Carnivore Diet for Beginners: Your Practical Guide to an All-Meat LifestyleSIGN UP FOR MY WEEKLY NEWSLETTER_____ ADDITIONAL RESOURCESNutrition with Judy ArticlesNutrition with Judy Resources_____ **DISCLAIMER: I am only here to provide support as a nutritional therapy practitioner and I am not providing medical advice.
