Menopause is more than hot flashes. Menopause is a metabolic turning point. Hormonal changes drive weight gain, bone loss, and higher risk for costly conditions like obesity and type 2 diabetes. More than 1.3 million women in the United States transition to menopause each year. Dental professionals play a vital role in recognizing and managing oral conditions associated with menopause, from dry mouth and burning mouth syndrome to increased periodontal concerns, brain fog, and bone loss.

Join us for an enlightening online seminar that delves into the multifaceted health transition of menopause. This webinar is not just a chance to expand your knowledge; it is a way to enhance your practice and better serve your patients in this important phase of their lives. So, come join us and discover how you can make a positive impact on your patients’ health during this pivotal transition!
