Exclusive 1-CEU Webinar Presentation | October 5, 2023
Parents and caregivers are well-informed about the connection between sugar in the diet and dental caries. However, parents often have a limited grasp of the broader implications of diet and how nutrient-dense dietary patterns help to support the child’s oral health. Additionally, there is much confusion surrounding the association between ultra-processed food and dental caries in children and adolescents.

Join Sara Karlin, DDS, and Ellen Karlin MMSc, RDN, LDN, FADA, on Thursday, February 1, 2024, from 2-3 p.m. ET, for a webinar that will discuss valuable tips to effectively educate your patients and clients about nutrition and pediatric oral health. These tips will enable you to empower and guide parents and caregivers towards making informed dietary choices to support the oral health of the infant, child, and adolescent. Engage with this dynamic duo as they discuss how proper nutrition and diet diversity play a key role in supporting a child’s long-term oral health and overall well-being.
