The lecture attracted an enthusiastic audience of dental hygienists and healthcare professionals interested in understanding the growing scientific evidence connecting oral health with systemic diseases. Drawing on his extensive research background in periodontology, oral microbiology, and inflammatory diseases, Dr. Saini explored the relationship between periodontal inflammation and systemic health, the importance of maintaining a balanced oral microbiome, and the expanding role of dental hygienists in preventive and interdisciplinary healthcare. The session also highlighted emerging approaches to oral hygiene, including the potential role of naturally derived oral care solutions in supporting oral tissue health, maintaining microbial balance, and complementing routine preventive care. The presentation was highly appreciated by attendees, generating engaging discussions and reinforcing the importance of evidence based oral healthcare. In recognition of his presentation and dedication to professional education, Dr. Saini was presented with a Certificate of Recognition for his outstanding contribution as a featured speaker at FDHA 2026.
Reflecting on the experience, Dr. Saini stated: "Oral health is increasingly being recognized as an essential component of overall health, and dental hygienists are at the forefront of this important transformation.
