IDM Foundations emphasizes the golden opportunity for dental professionals to gain the knowledge and skills to begin addressing the dental patient’s complete health. To care for the whole person preventatively, not just treating disease as it occurs.

Drawing from scientific research, expand your influence as true specialists in oral medicine. Learn the common links between bruxism, dental wear and malocclusion, headaches, dysfunctional breathing, sleep apnea, gastric reflux, ADHD and TMD that are rarely recognized in the medical community.

What is dentistry’s role in modern medicine?

We have a key role in identifying and addressing several factors of accelerated aging and chronic health conditions that affect total health. Join Dr. Wilkerson and make The Shift. Join the scientific revolution intentionally saving teeth, smiles and lives through Integrative Dental Medicine.

Integrative Dental Medicine (IDM) is the study of dentistry’s role in complete health care.  To simplify this potentially complex subject we will narrow the focus to 3 key pillars that are central to both oral and whole body health:

  • Infection and Inflammation
  • Airway, Breathing & Sleep
  • Temporo-mandibular Disorders and Dental Occlusion

IDM Foundations will address the following questions:

 

1. What is Integrative Dental Medicine and why is it so important?

2. What’s the critical relationship between oral and systemic inflammation and infection?

3. Why are airway, breathing and sleep disorders central to both Dentistry and complete health?

4. What is the critical connection between TMD, malocclusion, airway and inflammation?

5. How do we build a very successful business model around Integrative Dental Medicine?
