Today's visit to the dental office should be about wellness. Today's dentistry is no longer just about the teeth, it's about inflammation. Inflammation is at the root cause of many of the chronic diseases of aging. The evidence is clear that the mouth can contribute to the overall level of inflammation when periodontal disease persists.

This course presents a comprehensive program for incorporating wellness screening and therapy into existing dental practices.? ?
