Explore. Erosion. Explosion.

AWARENESS, Inc. is an independent, volunteer, not-for-profit continuing education organization that provides high quality continuing education for the dental hygiene and dental community.AWARENESS began in 1972 through the efforts of founding co-chair Tillie Ginsburg and Virginia Chybowski, with representatives from Marquette University’s Dental Hygiene Alumni Association and Sigma Phi Alpha chapter, and several members of the Milwaukee Regional Dental Hygienists’ Association. They sought to bring students, faculty, professional association representatives, practicing dental hygiene and dental professionals together for seminars reflecting current, high quality research on all aspects of dental hygiene and dental care.AWARENESS programs are planned by a Board of Registered Dental Hygiene volunteers from the dental hygiene programs at Milwaukee Area Technical College and Waukesha County Technical College, MATC and WCTC Sigma Phi Alpha chapters, Southeast WI-DHA Component and Marquette University School of Dentistry.AWARENESS supports life-long learning for all dental professionals, offering an annual seminar on the first Saturday of November.AWARENESS utilizes the proceeds from its annual seminar in support of the endowed dental hygiene scholarships at Milwaukee Area Technical College and Waukesha County Technical College, as well as the Annual Meeting of the Wisconsin Dental Hygiene Student Conference. Previously, AWARENESS supported the ADHA Carol Baus Benson Memorial Scholarship and the Marquette University Program in Dental Hygiene Scholarship Fund.BOARD MEMBERS:Gina Alfano-OrendorfLaurie BarrLynn BryanLucy Conard *Lynne Einsiedel *Kim JohnsTonia MorleyCece Williams-Saloutos *Kay BlankCarrie Grunwald* denotes Board of DirectorsAWARENESS does not sponsor, recommend or endorse any third party, product, service or information.If you would like to become a board member of AWARENESS please email your interest to:info@awarenessrdh.com

<P CLASS="subsection" STYLE="text-align: left; padding-left: 30px;"><SPAN STYLE="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">Recent discoveries about polymicrobial biofilms are both disturbing and thought provoking. </SPAN><SPAN STYLE="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">Dental diseases are not classic infections. New molecular techniques demonstrate caries and </SPAN><SPAN STYLE="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">periodontal disease are manifestations of dramatic, sustained shifts in microbial ecology that </SPAN><SPAN STYLE="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">overwhelm the host immune system. </SPAN></P>
<P CLASS="subsection" STYLE="text-align: left; padding-left: 30px;"><SPAN STYLE="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">Microbes, once thought to be key in these disease processes, may play a minor role, while r</SPAN><SPAN STYLE="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">elatively unknown species, or even the entire microbial community, may be responsible for </SPAN><SPAN STYLE="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">increased virulence, sustained acid production, enhanced inflammation and continued tissue </SPAN><SPAN STYLE="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">destruction. </SPAN></P>
<P CLASS="subsection" STYLE="text-align: left; padding-left: 30px;"><SPAN STYLE="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">Homeostasis still remains the ultimate goal, but new disease concepts like dysbiosis, microbial </SPAN><SPAN STYLE="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">consorsiums, inflammophilic bacteria, commensal pathobionts and keystone pathogens are changing the </SPAN><SPAN STYLE="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">conversation and challenging how dental disease is viewed today.</SPAN></P>

Modern day drinks, made from a sophisticated </SPAN><SPAN STYLE="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">concoction of ingredients, accelerate tooth erosion, setting the stage for dentinal hypersensitivity. </SPAN><SPAN STYLE="font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: small;">These drinks also impact the development of dental caries, a pH-mediated disease.</SPAN></P>
