In this episode, we have the pleasure of speaking with Hatice Hasturk, Director of Center for Clinical and Translational Research Center at the Forsyth Institute, who delves into the theories and pathways linking dentistry and medicine, emphasizing the promotion of overall health through improved oral health practices. Dr. Hasturk highlights the urgency of dismantling these longstanding divisions and nurturing a mindset shift that prioritizes preventive measures and comprehensive healthcare. Along with Jonathan and Mariya, she explores the intricate mechanisms linking oral health to systemic health, with a specific emphasis on the significant impact of oral inflammation on conditions like diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and Alzheimer’s disease. Dr. Hasturk also underscores the pivotal roles of education, innovation, collaboration, and communication in driving positive changes within the healthcare system to enhance patients’ overall well-being.
