From Disease to Remission: A New Framework for Periodontal Care
CE Credits: 0.5 CEU Release Date: 4/13/2026
Periodontal disease has traditionally been framed as something we control or maintain—but what if that mindset is already outdated? Today’s conversation challenges the idea that “stable” is good enough. Instead, we’re exploring a more precise, more proactive benchmark in periodontal care: remission. What does it really mean to move a patient out of active disease—and more importantly, how do we keep them there? Our guest today is Marianne Dryer. She is a RDH with a masters in education. She is an international speaker, published author, and Program Director of Dental Hygiene at Cape Cod Community College in Massachusetts.
