Dr. David Reznik, DDS | Director of Oral Health, Grady Health System
In 2019, HHS released a new initiative known as the Plan to End the HIV Epidemic. Understanding this plan and the roll that the dental profession can play in helping patients stay engaged in care and referring or providing HIV screening are important to ensure success. Oral health is an integral component of primary care. As stated in the Surgeon General’s report: “Oral Health in America”, one cannot be healthy without oral health.
Join Dr. David Reznik, Director of the Oral Health Center of Grady Health System’s Infectious Disease Program, for a 1-hour webinar covering information on the important role of the oral health care team regarding the overall well-being of people with HIV (PWH).
By attending this webinar, you will learn proper dental management for PWH, including a discussion of important lab values, antibiotic stewardship, nPEP, oPEP, and PrEP and what this all means towards providing comprehensive dental care for people with HIV.

HIVdent is a not-for-profit coalition of
concerned health care professionals
committed to assuring access to high quality
