Oral herpes infections affect 50-80% of adults in the United States….so why don’t we talk about it more?! While dental professionals are protected from transmission with PPE, patients are at risk for autoinfection from one vesicle to other areas of the face. Today we’ll discuss ways to educate our patients and understand concepts related to primary herpetic gingivostomatitis, oral lesions, and more! Join Amanda and Dr. Heba Hussein about HSV-1 and its associated conditions!
Thank you for joining us today and see you again soon!
