Oral Cancer Awareness Month

Posted on
 

I can’t believe how the last 8 weeks have flown. We wrapped up our Profitable Perio Online Workshop this week and the recordings will be ready for release in a few weeks. Then it was off to Montana to visit one of our wonderful clients.

One of the best things about traveling is seeing places and meeting people I may never otherwise encounter. And it’s even more fun when I have a travel buddy. This week, Allison Teel, our resident laser and ultrasonic trainer is traveling with me. Allison is doing a hands-on ultrasonic workshopfor our client here in Helena, MT. We even had a couple hours to go out for a nice dinner and relax after a full day of traveling. We are really enjoying our stay at a B&B. Being from Southern California, Allison is taking a ton of photos of this Victorian style home and all its period furnishings. It’s fun to stay somewhere different from my usual Hampton Inn.

I’m sure you know that April is Oral Cancer Awareness Month. In honor of this occasion, I’m interviewing my friend and colleague Cris Duval about the latest oral cancer updates and how the ‘new’ version of oral cancer is different than what we’ve looked for in the past. Below you’ll see all the details of the CE call which will take place at 1:00pm Eastern on April 21.

“The Real Truth about Oral Cancer Screening Devices”
with Cris Duval, RDH
April is Oral Cancer Awareness Month so it’s an appropriate time to take a look at the controversy that’s surrounded some of the most popular oral cancer screening systems over the past couple years.  On this call, I’ll interview Cris Duval, national speaker, coach and oral cancer activist. She’s a self-described overall health lifeguard and patient coach. Cris is a shining example of a hygienist that takes her role as healthcare professional very seriously.  If you’ve never heard her speak, you must attend this telephone seminar as she shares her insight and amazing communication skills that get patients to consistently ask for an oral cancer screening. On the call, Cris will share:
  • New updates on the state of oral cancer in the US
  • The truth about the studies that question the efficacy of oral cancer screening tools
  • Why we must be using a detection device other than our own eyes and hands
  • How to get patients to help you market this service to your community

This call is for members of our Hygiene Profits Mastermind group, if you’re not a member and you’d like to join the call, grab the trial offer today!

Stay Inspired,
