Where Oral and Behavioral Health Meet

Oral health is increasingly becoming a focus of health care providers — including those who specialize in behavioral health. Being able to recognize when a patient has oral health concerns can help shed light on their emotional and physical well-being — and knowing what to do about it can change lives.

On WednesdaySeptember 7, at 1:00 p.m. ET, the SAMHSA-HRSA Center for Integrated Health Solutions hosted a webinar to discuss these key topics, with nearly 700 health professionals tuned in to the conversation.

The webinar featured two presenters: Renee W. Joskow, DDS, MPH, FAGD, FACD, senior dental advisor at HRSA, and Anita D. Glicken, MSW, program consultant and project leader at the National Interprofessional Initiative on Oral Health.
