Partnerships
To pursue these objectives, we work closely with impactful professional associations. Here are just a few examples of such partnerships:
In 2017, we also worked on a project with with the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). With the support of SUNSTAR, the IDF partnered up with the European Federation of Periodontology (EFP) in 2017 to discuss the bi-directional relationship between periodontal disease and diabetes. This resulted in a scientific consensus report and guidelines for oral care professionals, healthcare professionals, and patients to improve early diagnosis, prevention, and co-management of diabetes and periodontitis. Moreover, in December 2017, at the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) Congress, Abu Dhabi, we presented a virtual reality (VR) educational video "The Perio Link". This video was exclusively created for this event and reflects SUNSTAR’s passion and commitment to fighting Type 2 diabetes.
