Severe mental illness (SMI) is a life-altering disease that
affects people just as they are beginning to discover the
freedoms of adulthood. In addition to the psychosocial
challenges faced by this population, many confront a
myriad of oral health issues including xerostomia and
tooth loss. This session offers oral health professionals
insight into SMI and how to provide care in a safe and
respective manner. This course also offers dental health
professionals an easy alternative to help the oral needs of
their clients such as xylitol that aids in wetness, reduces
dental decay and plaque formation. . The Five W’s of
xylitol; the Who, What, When, Where, and Why will
become clear upon completion of this course. In addition,
attendees will be able to offer a healthy tasty alternative
for increasing wellness and total health for their clients.
