What does truly integrated care look like in practice? Host Matt Crespin captured the conversations at ADHA's first-ever Integrated Care Summit in Broomfield, Colorado this past weekend — bringing together physicians, dentists, periodontists, and public health professionals making the case for breaking down silos. (1:56) Dr. Mychi Nguyen, Chief Medical Officer at Asian Health Services, shares how a patient's powerful words — "How can I be healthy if I don't have teeth?" — launched a dental clinic at her FQHC and explains the AHA's Healthy Smiles, Healthy Hearts initiative transforming dental visits into preventive health opportunities. (8:48) AGD President-elect George J. Schmidt reflects on the growing ADHA-AGD collaboration. (15:19) Dr. Elizabeth Ramos of the American Academy of Periodontology makes the case for hygienists as key communicators of the perio-systemic connection. (24:08) Michael Lazzara, VP of International Business Development of Dento, introduces oral health biomarker testing that gives patients real-time data to motivate behavior change. And (35:37) Holly Kingsbury of the Colorado Community Health Network walks through a promising model for integrating behavioral health screenings into dental visits at FQHCs statewide.
