HPV: The Role of the Dental Team
Live webinar 4/24/20
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a growing concern for health care providers and their patients. Oropharyngeal cancer has surpassed cervical cancer as the highest caused cancer from HPV. Oral health providers have a critical role in HPV, having the opportunity for patient education on the HPV vaccine, care coordination, and diagnosis of oropharyngeal cancers. This webinar will discuss the epidemiology of HPV, describe the HPV vaccine recommendations, and highlight a health center’s efforts to integrate HPV care into their dental clinic.
Objectives:
Describe the epidemiology of human papillomavirus (HPV).
Discuss the recommendations for the HPV vaccine and how the vaccine works.
Learn from a health center how to integrate HPV screenings and care coordination into the dental clinic.
