Session Description
Saliva is critical for oral health. This session will bring a multi-disciplinary team to show the new advancements in dental, oral and craniofacial diseases with the ultimate goal of maximizing treatment success in areas related to saliva and salivary glands. Our first speaker will focus on multiomic approaches to assess signaling pathways in irradiated salivary glands. Next, we will discuss novel approaches to improve salivary gland regeneration after head and neck radiotherapy. Furthermore, we will discuss about the use of specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators that promote resolution of inflammation in salivary glands. Finally, we will present how saliva secretion impact oral health with a focus in caries detection. In summary, attendees will learn about the applications, challenges and perspectives of state-of-the-art strategies in salivary research.

Learning Objectives
  • Learn about new technologies to restore salivary gland function.
  • Learn about multiomic approaches to study irradiated salivary glands
  • Learn about emerging approaches that use saliva to determine caries risk.
