Greeting from Chile
As a junior dental student preparing to educate patients with mental disabilities on the importance of oral hygiene, what are the best resources to ensure accurate and effective information for my presentation?
Thank you so much for this information. We will watch for future webinars.
I would like to inquire about the design guidelines for fact sheets related to oral health and mental health. If we were to develop fact sheets on this topic, would we be required to adhere to FDI’s existing fact sheet design, or would we have the flexibility to create our own format ?
Thank you Dr.
