The importance of optimal soft tissue health cannot be overstated. Periodontitis is a major problem that affects most people, and it’s linked to various systemic health concerns, such as diabetes, respiratory ailments, and much more. Despite the link between periodontal health and systemic health, the two are treated as separate fields entirely. Dr. Esha Katyayen is a periodontologist and implantologist in Oslo who advocates for periodontitis to be treated as a medical disorder.
Our team at Zircon Medical recently hosted Dr. Katyayen on our podcast series to discuss the importance of periodontal care and optimal soft tissue health in implant patients.
