Few people in oral healthcare have the rich and storied background of Ann-Marie DePalma, CDA, RDH, MEd. Ann-Marie has extensive experience in clinical practice, education, dental software, and volunteering, and her experience lends valuable insight into the interoperability challenges we face in dentistry today.

Ann-Marie joined me on The Patient First Podcast to share her story as an oral health speaker and educator, as a clinician, and as a patient herself.

In this episode, Ann-Marie and I talk about how dental teams can successfully implement new technology, the need for increased awareness of the connection between oral health and women’s health, and how solutions like Toothapps® are exactly what we need to bridge the gap between medicine and dentistry.

I’m Dr. Bryan Laskin—dentist, author, entrepreneur and innovator of solutions that connect dentistry to overall health.
