Your Patients are on Fire!
Your patients don’t leave their stressful jobs, poor sleeping
patterns (insomnia, apnea, snoring), their physical fitness (or
lack) or their eating patterns (mindless eating & evening
feeding frenzies) in the car before they sit in your chair.
There’s irrefutable scientific evidence that these habits can
ramp up inflammation or dial it down: One, their chronically
inflamed bodies need three to four month hygiene frequency.
Two, more attention must be paid to pre and post op
instructions. Three, provisionals need to be impeccable as their
immune systems are hyperactive with any new stimulus.
Well adjusted, rested, physically active, healthy eating
patients enjoy a physiology that supports a better response
to our prevention/restorative/surgical interventions. In this
high energy entertaining course, be prepared to have your
hair blown back as you discover the value of identifying
inflammatory lifestyles at the new patient or recall examination.
- Describe how eating habits can dial down or ramp up inflammation and how it affects your restorative, prosthetic treatment, and surgical outcomes
- Learn why it’s important to identify the sleep deprived patient (not just apnea) right away at the new patient exam
- Understand why your sedentary patients don't heal as well as your active living patients
- Gain greater insight into the relationship between chronic inflammation and disease and become a leader in your community
- Discover the value of referring to allied professionals like osteopathic or functional medicine doctors, chiropractors, sleep medicine centers, physiotherapists and dieticians
