On this week’s episode of Fast Facts – Perio Edition your host, Katrina Sanders, RDH talks to us about cells of the Oral Mucosa!
Quotes:
“This renewal or basal layer that continues to renew, we believe, turns over approximately every 10 days, whereas skin, for example, has a turnover rate of 28 days.”
“It’s important to note that there are several different types of cells located within the oral epithelium, all of which are there and built to protect the underlying structures.”
