Bring Life to Your OraVital Program Through Dementia Care Certification
November 9, 2022 7:30 PM ET
Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States and rising. 25% of the population has a genetic predisposition to getting Alzheimer’s. Until now it has been thought to be a terminal disease with no cure.
Since 2017 physicians around the country have been using a method called ReCODE (Reverse COgnitive DEcline) developed by UCLA neurologist Dr. Dale Bredesen. An August 2022 peer-reviewed study in the Journal of Alzheimer’s disease showed that 84% of patients improve using his method! The best drug reduces decline by only 20%.
Dr. Bredesen recognizes that our dental partners are imperative for optimal success. Certification for dental professionals was made available in 2021. Certification requires no new dental skills but dramatically heightens your credibility for referrals and case acceptance.
Thousands of physicians, health coaches, and patients are being taught that periodontal bacteria, airway obstruction, and mercury from amalgams are all root causes of Alzheimer’s and to partner with certified dental professionals for both reversal and prevention.
Learning objectives
- Learn about Alzheimer’s disease and why it is now both preventable and treatable.
- Learn why optimal oral health is critical if patients are to succeed, and the causation level evidence for the oral bacteria that is an important root cause of dementia.
- Learn how certification in dementia care by dental professionals can benefit patients, the practice, and you personally.
