Diabetes by the Numbers
Presenter: Jamie Collins, RDH-EA
CE Credits: 1 CEU
Thirty-three million Americans are afflicted by Diabetes Mellitus, with 7.2 million cases undiagnosed. With the increasing diabetes epidemic, it is estimated that by the year 2050 one in three Americans will be diabetic in their lifetime. Diabetic patients are 2-3 times more likely to develop periodontal disease than non-diabetics. With 80% of diabetics residing in the middle and lower socioeconomic American society, dental clinicians have the ability to make a difference in the life of these individuals. In 2020 there have been new CDT codes implemented to aid dental care workers to identify and help manage the oral systemic link of diabetes. This CE webinar will help identify the types, causes and treatments to provide the best care possible.
