Understand the subtle yet significant existence of cranial bone movement and how restrictive cranial bone movement, called a cranial strain pattern, can, and does, directly impact dental restorative outcomes.
Learn the profound reciprocating influence between occlusion, cranial strains, and the rest of the body and use this knowledge to minimize negative dental outcomes and maximize positive outcomes.
Learn the science behind screening measures on the thorax and the neck to identify dental patients who are at high risk for restorative failures.
Learn the specifics of CBCT analysis that go well beyond dentition and occlusion to see the bridge to the body, including examination of orbital position, cranial bone position, temporal fossa orientation, upper neck vs occiput position, and influence.
Learn the difference between a mandibular flat-plane appliance and an AIA Pattern Altering Dental Appliance (PADA).
Understand the rationale behind “Body Centric”, Body Centric Relation, Dental Hemispheric Occupancy, and Dental Flow.
Understand Advanced Lightwire Functional (ALF) application and use to reduce cranial strain and alter body patterning.
Learn about the AIA Spectrum of Body Patterns (SOP) and how this knowledge will directly affect dental programming.
Understand 4 of the 9 cranial strain patterns and how this knowledge will affect dental programming.
Acquire insight into the developing field of Respiratory Neurodontics and the role the dentist plays in the future of this revolutionary collaborative model.
