There are major parallels between oral health and overall health, and it is our responsibility, as oral surgeons, to educate our patients about these connections. Today, on Everyday Oral Surgery, Dr. Imran Ahson is joining the conversation. Dr. Ahson’s goal, when speaking publicly, is always to connect oral health with systemic health, and today, he is here to do just that!
