September is National Gum Care Month, and Melanie, one of our periodontics patients, said it better than we could.

"Thank you for repairing my gums and making me feel valued, Dr. Shehabeldin. Thank you also for your patience in reminding me of next steps and what the research shows so I don't become discouraged. The students are very lucky to have you as a mentor and valued teacher."

Our periodontics team, recognized nationally for its expertise in patient care and research, treats gum disease every day, and they teach the next generation of dentists while they do it.

Gums that bleed, feel tender or have started to recede are worth a look. Caught early, these conditions are treatable, and getting ahead of them matters for more than your mouth.

Our Periodontics Clinic can evaluate your condition and recommend a plan. Visit UTDentistry.org/Periodontics or call 210-450-3715.

The new Institutional Faculty Advisory Body at UTSA - The University of Texas at San Antonio held its launch retreat last week, with three School of Dentistry faculty among its members.

Dr. Bennett T. Amaechi, Dr. Enas Bsoul and Dr. Sohini Dhar are serving on the IFAB, a university-wide body bringing together faculty from every college and school across the academic and health campuses.

The IFAB serves as a central forum for faculty perspectives, feedback and recommendations to institutional leadership on faculty affairs, graduate education, research and scholarly activities, and university curriculum.

We're glad to see our faculty contributing to that work alongside colleagues from across the institution.

Roadrunners, we've got you covered. 🦷 🏈

Ahead of kickoff, School of Dentistry faculty member Dr. Scott Stafford scanned the teeth of UTSA - The University of Texas at San Antonio football players and 3D printed a dental model of each player’s mouth in our lab.

He delivered the models to UTSA's athletic training staff and student athletic trainers, then taught them how to form custom-fitted mouthguards so players can get a fresh guard any time they need one this season.

Why it matters: a custom-fitted mouthguard offers better protection and durability, and it's comfortable enough that athletes actually keep it in.
