I just returned from Madison, Wisconsin, where dental leaders from all over the country convened over the weekend to hold the founding meeting for the American Academy for Oral Systemic Health (AAOSH).
The formation of this organization could not have come at a better time. Research continues to unequivocally demonstrate the connections between the health of the mouth and that of the body, as does plain old common sense.
The newly-inaugurated AAOSH will bring together medical professionals from all fields and strive to eliminate the ‘tunnel vision,’ which may exist in medical specialties. Mark Twain put it best when he wrote ‘When all you have is a hammer, all problems look like nails.’ One of our primary goals is to encourage collaboration among health care providers so we can all draw from the same, fully equipped tool box.
Academy Members will commit themselves to working and learning together in the ultimate spirit of cooperation so that patients everywhere can enjoy the resulting benefits of improved general health, healing, longevity and wellness.
“When dentists and physicians work together, medical outcomes will are improved and lives will be lengthened,” states AAOSH President Dr. Chris Kammer. “Many people still don’t understand that good dental health can add years to your life, so one of our missions is to educate the public as well.”
Several nationally-known clinicians who attended the meeting gave presentations on the latest findings on the state of periodontal health in America. One speaker revealed how a couple was not able to conceive a child until the mother’s rampant gum infection was under control. Another speaker discussed how diabetes can make gum disease worsen, but that gum disease can also make diabetes worse – a “vicious circle of death,” the eradication of which will require a unified and aggressive public education campaign.
Advanced dental techniques and systems for treating periodontal disease and tooth decay were shared, as well as an extended program on the role played by proper nutrition.
The new organization has 50 founding members and anticipates rapid growth as more professionals absorb and evaluate the data demonstrating the reciprocal relationship of mouth health to body health also known as ‘the oral-systemic link.’
We’re excited at the prospect of working closely with cardiologists, diabetic specialists, obstetricians and many more medical specialties. AAOSH is all about opening those doors of communication and offering assistance, to improve the health and longevity of the patients we serve.
