Better late than never! 💉
This week the team at Springfield Dental Centre got our first dose of the HPV vaccine, Gardasil!
Emma, with The Local Pharmacy, came to our office to administer dose one of three. This vaccine could protect us (and you) from 7 different cancer causing strains of HPV- including oropharyngeal cancer (a type of head and neck cancer)!
This vaccine is nearly 100% effective at reducing HPV related cancers, if administer before exposure. This is why it is suggested to be administered between the ages of 9-14 years old. However, it can still be impactful in those beyond that age range.
Even if you’ve already been exposed to some HPV strains, getting the vaccine can still protect from other strains. The vaccine also reduces transmission with individuals who are already HPV+. It may also be an important part of HPV-related infection treatment. After abnormal cells have been removed, the HPV vaccine can help prevent the regrowth of abnormal cells.
Some of our team had the opportunity to attend a lecture on HPV by Dr. Samson Ng, Jo-Anne Jones, Dr Cheryl Cable, and Ajit Johal… and felt empowered to do something about it.
Talk to your health care professionals about protecting yourself against HPV-related cancers, and if this vaccine may be a good choice for you.
In a week and a half, we say goodbye to a cherished member of our dental family. For over two decades, Heather has been the welcoming face of Springfield Dental Centre. Bringing warmth, expertise, and unwavering dedication to our team and patients alike.
Her contributions have shaped our practice in countless ways, and her compassion has left an undeniable mark on everyone who has walked through our doors. While we’ll deeply miss her presence, we are so excited for her as she begins this new chapter in her journey!
We will miss you Heather. ♥️
