CEO Henry Schein help healthcare professionals connect oral health with systemic health and empower patients to prioritise wellness. The aim is to strengthen preventive care, reduce chronic disease and ease pressure on health systems.“ Regular check-ups, healthy habits and early intervention lower risks and costs,” Jennifer notes.
Henry Schein has long advocated that oral health is overall health. The campaign highlights links between oral disease and conditions like diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
“ People do not always join the dots. The mouth is the gateway to your body, so medical – dental integration is critical,” Jennifer explains.
Globally, she sees innovative models emerging that more closely integrate dental and medical care. Henry Schein wants to equip practitioners with tools, technology and resources to make prevention possible in every exam room.
“ We empower practitioners to make prevention possible, helping health happen in every exam room and community,” Jennifer says.
