SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Intro to Saliva & Glucose-Guided Treatment Planning
DESCRIPTION:WEBINAR: Intro to Saliva & Glucose-Guided Treatment Planning\nPresented by Ms. Lora Hooper\, BSDH\, RDH\, EFDA \nDiscover the future of dentistry at the intersection of oral and systemic health. In this 1-hour webinar\, Lora Hooper\, The Saliva Hacker™\, will reveal how saliva diagnostics and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) expose the hidden perio–metabolic connection. Attendees will see firsthand how combining these tools transforms periodontal and implant treatment outcomes. This session is your exclusive preview of the groundbreaking 2-day workshop designed to set a new standard in oral–systemic care. \nObjectives \n\nExplain why scaling and root planing alone often fail due to biofilm and systemic drivers.\nDescribe the perio–metabolic pathway and how CGM data links to oral inflammation.\nInterpret a case example integrating saliva test results with glucose variability.\nPreview saliva-guided protocols that form the foundation of precision perio and implant care.\n\nMs. Lora Hooper earned her BS in Dental Hygiene and EFDA certification from The Ohio State University in 1995. She is President of the Integrative Dental Medicine Scholar Society and a Preceptor of the Bale Doneen Method. She completed the SSRP peptide program\, focusing on disease reversal at the cellular level. \nConflict of Interest Disclosure: Ms. Hooper has financial or other interests of some nature in ProBiora Health and IDM Scholar Society. \nWant more of a deep dive on this topic?

The goals of anxiolysis\, including clinical applications\, indications\, advantages/disadvantages and biohazards of administration will be presented. The monitoring and recognition of potential complications will be discussed. \nA review of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen equipment and technique for safe administration will be presented followed by a demonstration of the administration and use of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen inhalation equipment in a dental clinic setting. Participants will then practice administration and monitoring using actual inhalation equipment. \nThis is a one-day course with approximately five (5) hours of classroom instruction followed by two (2) hours of clinical demonstration and practice. At the end of this course\, participants will clearly understand the indications for use of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen and be able to provide safe administration and monitoring. \nObjectives \n\nDiscuss and understand the basic pharmacology and effects of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen.\nReview the anesthesia continuum and the Colorado Dental Board regulations regarding the administration and monitoring of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen in the dental office.\nKnow the goals of anxiolysis including the advantages and disadvantages of inhalation administration.\nDiscuss indications and contraindications for safe administration of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen.\nUnderstand how to monitor patients and recognize potential complications of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen.\nReview the inhalation equipment used for the administration of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen in dental offices.\nBecome proficient in the administration and monitoring of Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen by practicing with inhalation equipment in a clinical setting.\n\nDr. Jeffrey Young earned his DDS from the University of Iowa and is a retired Army Colonel.
