And not on the page, is the annual NYU/NYC walk in April. We are just waiting for logos and exact times to put that one up. I have to say that the RDH community is really picking up the ball on this. As part of the early detection team in the dental offices, they are qualified to do visual and tactile screenings, and in many cases actually spend more time looking at soft tissues than the doctors themselves. Getting them involved with OCF is something that somehow the ADA just does not get in the same vein... spending time looking for a life threatening disease, and doing this with every patient in an opportunistic manner as part of their practice, brings prestige to their profession. A visit for an annual cleaning is not just about hygiene, it is a non negotiable reason to be at the dental office.
