13 November 2021: This was my 13th annual presentation to the OCC. “The Effect of Jaw Problems on the Rest of the Body – Exploring the wider role of dentistry and child health.” It was again by zoom. Students of the OCC were joined with a number of osteopaths from various countries, eg: Brazil, South Africa, Singapore, and Italy. For those unable to attend the live event and for future teaching purposes, it was recorded. This session raised a considerable sum of money for this most worthwhile charity.

The presentation stressed the importance of good facial development in order to attain optimal nasal & pharyngeal airways and good posture. Osteopaths have an important role to play in monitoring this development and avoiding future problems.
