    7: Ending the Silence: Can We DeW Better? Featuring Dr. Ronni Brown
    Apr 21 2021
    Today’s episode features Dr. Ronni Brown. We discuss Dr. Brown’s experience treating patients at a medium-security correctional facility in Northern California, which led to writing her book, A State of Decay. These years of service gave her an appreciation for different life circumstances and the impact of addiction to oral systemic health. This impact is a complex issue and Dr. Brown’s book provides clear instruction on how to navigate not only the recognition of this situation, but the path forward to recovery and improved oral health.
