The Benefits of Good Oral Health for Humans and Our Beloved Canine Companions & Mission Alignment: Cure For The Kids and Roseman Dental & Orthodontics: Treating Medically Compromised Patients with Specialized Care
Double Header Dental Health Month! Come join us for back-to-back sessions focused on dental health for adults, dogs, and children with specialized healthcare needs. What do we know about the intersection of human and animal dental health? How can we maintain health and extend the life of our furry family members, through regular preventative dental health? Meet Dr. Thacker, Director of Roseman’s Dental Clinics, Program Director of Roseman’s AEGD program, and Associate Professor. Dr. Thacker’s military background, dental training, and love for animals come together with a compassionate and holistic overview of human and canine Dental Health. Meet Dr. Thacker’s dogs and learn more about how to care for your pet’s teeth. Following that, Dr. Alice Chen, Pediatric Dentist and Associate Professor will partner with Dr. Joseph Lasky, Oncologist and Medical Director at Cure For the Kids (C4K) to talk about how the Roseman C4K missions align to provide coordinated, empathic, patient-focused dental care to children with cancer or other critical diseases. How is their care different and how do the two organizations work together to maintain health, prevent complications, and support the patient’s journey to health and recovery? Come learn 2x as much in this Dental Double Header in celebration of National Children’s Dental Health Month.
