Change is Needed to Save Lives; the role of dentistry and medicine

I was privileged to attend a recent course with Dr. Bale and Dr. Doneen focused on Heart Attack, Stroke and Oral Health. Bringing to the fore-front once again, the work dental professionals provide matters when it comes to cardiac health.

Interview with Dr. Debbie Wilson Dr. Debbie Wilson is a general dentist in the north Toronto area. She has been practicing dentistry for 34 years. Dr. Wilson is one of the most preventative focused dentists I have had the pleasure of meeting.
