The Dentistry & Oral Health CD-ROM is a joint production of Dr. James Morreale, Mohawk College and Andrew Connery.

|
Inexpensive and income-producing for the school |
|

|
Will increase awareness of the value of good oral health, both for the students and the patients they will be treating |
|

|
We can help design programs that can best fit your institution, for both day or night learning programs |

As health care professionals, you are well aware of the importance of maintaining good oral hygiene and preserving your teeth for a lifetime.
Nursing staff should be able to differentiate between healthy and unhealthy conditions of the oral cavity and its prosthesis, and demonstrate and perform oral hygiene techniques for the geriatric patient.
The maintenance of good oral health and the retention of teeth increases the quality of life for patients.

|
Please Note: The following video clips have been edited for the Internet --
File size (and therefore quality) has been reduced to facilitate Internet download time. They are provided here as a sample of content. The video clips on our CD-ROM are of much greater quality and higher resolution. |

|
In Section 1 you will learn to recognize the healthy tissues of the Oral Cavity, both the hard tissues and the soft tissues.
- Basic Anatomy and Physiology of the Oral Cavity
- Other Structures of the Mouth
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now that you can recognize healthy tissues, we will show you the effects of disease on these healthy tissues.
- Disease Conditions of the Oral Cavity
- Consequences of Oral Infection
|
| |
|
|
|
When teeth are lost, they should be replaced to restore aesthetics and function, contributing to the quality of life. Here in this section you will be shown the different prosthesis of the mouth.
- Restoration of Damaged Dentition
|
| |
|
|
|
Oral Hygiene is most important. We must maintain good oral hygiene practices for ourselves and our patients.
- Oral Hygiene
- Patient Oral Hygiene Categories
|
|
- Oral Hygiene of Crowns, Fixed Bridges & Implants
|
| |
|
|
| If long term care facilities are interested in providing total care to their residents, they must have an oral health policy which promotes rational dental care through a combined effort of the dental team and the nursing home staff. |
| |
| You can interact with the course through questions at the end of each section. You can take one section or all of the sections and go in and out of the CD-ROM as you please. There are further references for you if you want to learn more about a specific area of the CD-ROM. |
