Doctor Emilio López lecture

 

Dr. Emilio’s lecture

On February 23rd there was a conference in “I.E.S Dr. Francisco Marín” for teachers and students. The lecture was carried out by the Doctor and odontologist Emilio López. The purpose of the lecture was to show students some advantages of having good saliva.

First, Mr. Emilio talked about the different components of saliva. In addition, he said a lot of interesting things about saliva like the number of bacteria in the mouth with respect to the rest of the body, the alarming decrase in the production of saliva, the amazing medicinal powers of saliva…

Also he gave a lot of advices on how to produce more saliva like chewing  our food slowly,  always keeping an olive bone in our mouth…

To conclude, the conference finished with some questions from the audience. The lecture was really useful and interesting. In my opinion, we’ve all learned many important things about saliva that will help us to have a healthy mouth and a healthy life.
