Most dental professionals aim to provide patients with the best care possible. Empowering patients to adopt the strategies needed to maintain health for a lifetime can be best achieved through implementation of a step-by-step approach.
Partnering with Dr. Peter Dawson, Witt has gained invaluable clinical experience in a world-renowned clinical culture. For nearly 40 years he has treated patients suffering with joint problems, bite problems, bruxism, headaches and sleep apnea. The majority of dentists have similar clinical concerns when diagnosing and treating masticatory problems: What is causing the problem? Is it going to break? Should I even get involved? Will I make it worse? How can I make it better? Witt helps dental professionals gain the skills and understanding to solve these challenges and guide their patients to complete health through dentistry.
Whether you work together remotely or in person, Witt will help the dentist and team tackle these issues:
Recognize the benefits of treating neuromuscular and mechanical oral issues
Resolve the challenging interplay of restorative, occlusal, and TMD problems with the complex relationships to general health issues.
Identify the risk factors and screening process for airway and breathing disorders
Understand the impacts of the 4Bs (Bacteria, Bite, Breathing, Body) on oral-systemic health
Review the role of dental teams in managing integrative systemic conditions
Explain the issues in diagnosing and treating masticatory and breathing problems (separately and comorbidly)
