PROACTIVE DENTAL CARE – A SUSTAINABLE SOLUTION FOR WORKFORCE HEALTH

Dental health is one of the silent yet critical factors that directly impact employee productivity, absenteeism rates, and overall healthcare costs for businesses. A very high percentage of screened employees in our clinics are diagnosed with dental issues, underlying the prevalence of this issue.   

Together with CarePlus, let’s take a closer look at the most common oral and maxillofacial issues affecting today’s workforce-helping organizations build proactive prevention and care strategies to ensure a healthy, stable, and high-performing team. 

1/ COMMON ORAL AND MAXILLOFACIAL CONDITIONS THAT DIRECTLY AFFECT EMPLOYEES 
Based on data from periodic corporate health check-ups and real-world clinical treatments at CarePlus, several prevalent dental and maxillofacial conditions have been shown to negatively impact communication, concentration, and work performance, including: 

• Gingivitis 
• Tooth decay 
• Pulpitis 
• Impacted wisdom teeth requiring extraction 
• Malocclusion 
• TMJ disorders 

2/ ROOT CAUSES OF COMMON DENTAL AND ORAL HEALTH ISSUES 
Dental problems among employees often stem from systemic and structural factors, such as: 

• Employees seeking dental care only when experiencing significant pain, neglecting early screening, and preventive monitoring. 
• Limited dental coverage within employee benefit packages and most common insurance plans. 
• Work-related stress and sedentary office environments increase the risk of gingivitis, teeth grinding, and jaw pain.  
• Food and Drinks high in harmful ingredients that accelerate dental problems.  

Late-stage dental treatments cost several times more than routine preventive care, making it difficult for businesses to control healthcare budgets and insurance expenses, if dental problems are not tackled proactively, regularly and at an early stage. 

3/ PROACTIVE DENTAL CARE – BUILDING A HEALTHY WORKFORCE FROM THE CORE 
Proactive dental care delivers clear and measurable benefits for businesses: 

• Reduced absenteeism caused by toothaches and acute dental complications. 
• Lower medical expenses and direct billing costs through early intervention. 
• Sustained productivity across the workforce. 
• Enhanced employee benefits experience, contributing to talent retention.
