"Prevention has always been central to our professional identity as dental hygienists.

🎤 Speaker Spotlight: Sheena Hinson, RDH, Director of Partnerships

Sheena Hinson, RDH, Director of Partnerships at Dental Warranty is taking the stage at the 2027 Oral Health Prevention Summit on January 27 in Boston.

This year’s theme, "The Convergence of Prevention: Where Science and Systems Intersect," reflects a major shift in oral healthcare.

Caries and periodontal disease can no longer be treated as isolated conversations. The future of prevention connects biofilm ecology, host response, salivary diagnostics, behavior, AI, clinical workflows, and scalable care systems.

Our speaker lineup includes leaders challenging dentistry’s traditional operating model and helping build a more connected, prevention-centered future.

This is not recycled CE or theoretical futurism. It is a working forum for the people shaping what oral healthcare becomes next.
