Summer Wellness Symposium – Oral Care Tips

The Summer Online Wellness Symposium is designed to support ovarian cancer survivors with practical insights and guidance for managing treatment-related challenges. During these two sessions, we will address two critical aspects of cancer care: oral health and gastrointestinal issues. Each session is tailored to provide valuable information and ways to navigate these aspects of your cancer journey. Whether you’re currently in treatment, in remission, or supporting a loved one through their cancer experience, we invite you to join us for an engaging and informative discussion. Although the program is virtual, we aim to cultivate a space where you can engage, share experiences, and find strength in community support.  You are not alone.

Dealing with cancer treatment side effects, including oral changes, can be tough. These changes might cause discomfort and other quality-of-life challenges. During this program, we’ll learn about basic oral care and the possible side effects you might expect from treatment. We’ll focus on easy ways to prevent problems and keep your smile shining bright!
