Currently 1 in 13 people in the US are taking incretin-mimetic weight loss medications like Ozempic and Mounjaro. As practitioners, how much do we know about their impacts on our patients' oral health? Participants in this course will review the mechanisms of action and rationale for use of GLP-1-RA and GIPR medications. Attendees will also review the clinical implications for patients seeking dental care who are taking GLP-1-RA and GIPR medications.
