Oral health has been shown to play a significant role in overall health and thyroid health. Thyroid conditions have also been shown to impact oral health, and in my experience working with people with thyroid and autoimmune thyroid conditions, I’ve seen an increase in dental cavities, especially among patients with hyperthyroidism.

Today, I’m sharing what research shows about how thyroid conditions affect oral health. In this episode, you’ll learn about:

- What I’ve seen in my practice when it comes to oral health and hyperthyroidism
- Why it’s essential to work with a dentist familiar with the thyroid and an endocrinologist familiar with oral manifestations of thyroid disorders
- Common oral manifestations of thyroid disorders
- Dental management of hypo- and hyperthyroidism
- How thyroid dysfunction can impact oral health status
- The association between cavities and autoimmune thyroid disease

As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
