Open Wide - Understanding the Oral-Systemic Connection and What We Can Do About It

Join us Thursday, July 23 at 8 PM for a webinar presentation from Dr. Alexander Volchonok.

The mouth is more than a gateway to the body—it can be a key driver of overall health. In this presentation, Dr. Volchonok explores the latest evidence linking oral health to chronic disease, immune function, and systemic inflammation. Attendees will gain practical strategies for identifying hidden dental contributors to illness and learn how collaborative, biologic approaches can improve patient outcomes.
