Dental Hygienist M.A.,PGC,RDH raising awareness that alcohol is a public health issue. Sharing facts, tips and conversations around alcohol and cancer risk.

[Margaret Flynn, Registered Dental Hygienist @FlynnMargaret]

😷Your dental visit is about more than your teeth.🦷
It's an opportunity to talk about the habits that influence your long-term health—including alcohol use, tobacco, nutrition, and oral cancer prevention.
Small conversations can make a big difference.

Fascinating work from @ForsythResearch Understanding the oral microbiome is helping advance precision oral healthcare and deepen our understanding of the connection between oral and overall health. #oralheath #oralmicrobiome #dentalresearch #ADAForsyth #publichealth

Dry January isn’t about restriction — it’s about awareness. 🧠✨
Even a short break from alcohol can lead to:
✔️ better sleep
✔️ clearer thinking
✔️ improved oral & overall health
✔️ fewer inflammation triggers
Alcohol is a known carcinogen, yet it’s often overlooked in health conversations. Taking 31 days off gives your body (and mind) a chance to reset — and reflect on habits that truly support your long-term health.
Whether you’re alcohol-free curious or fully committed this month, every intentional choice counts. 💙
Cheers to clarity — no alcohol required. 🥂🚫🍷

[Margaret Flynn, Registered Dental Hygienist @FlynnMargaret]

Alcohol is a Group 1 carcinogen.
That hasn’t changed.
What has changed is how openly we’re willing to talk about it—especially in healthcare.
Oral health is often the first place alcohol does harm, yet it’s rarely discussed.
Prevention starts with honest conversations. 🦷🧠

[Margaret Flynn, Registered Dental Hygienist @FlynnMargaret]

🍷💬 Think before you drink.
Alcohol doesn’t just affect your liver — it impacts your entire body, including your mouth. 😷🥂
