AAOSH provides support to health professionals and the public by providing a higher quality and standard for health care service and public awareness of the health connections linking the mouth with the body. AAOSH is passionate in its vision to educate medical and dental professionals about the mouth-body connections and to help bridge the gaps within the medical disciplines and professions using current and emerging science and modern information technology which will support the rapid and accurate exchange of available knowledge. Not only will this benefit all health professionals, but millions of people worldwide will benefit and live healthier, longer and happier lives.Emerging science confirms that chronic low-grade infections in the mouth elevates systemic inflammation and has an impact on all body systems. The mouth is further linked with the rest of the body when considering the impact of oral airway and sleep apnea, TMD and headaches, dental caries infections, and oral cancer. The significance of these numerous mouth-body and oral-systemic connections highlight the importance of preventing and treating oral disease which has mounting and profound medical impacts on "whole body" health."Oral Health" must therefore have a new definition and be supported by an organization inclusive of all medical professionals and practitioners that are committed to working and learning together in a spirit of collaborative cooperation. Patients everywhere will enjoy the resulting benefits of improved oral and general health, healing, longevity and wellness.
