ARE YOUR TEETH MAKING YOU SICK?

Synopsis/ Abstract: 

This presentation will create an awareness like no other. Heavy metals, endotoxins, osteonecrosis and periodontal disease can play huge roles in the bodies ability to create ATP and it can drastically alter the immune system. This means dentistry can be connected to cardiovascular disease as well as autoimmune. We will cover nutrition, energetics of the tooth/body connection as well as microscopy. Learn how to take your practice of dentistry to a level that does more than just addressing decay. Learn how to impact your patient’s life and be the go-to practice for cutting edge information based on science.

Curriculum Vitae:
Dr. Dawn Ewing is a naturopathic practitioner in Houston, Texas, Executive Director of the International Academy of Biological Dentistry and Medicine (IABDM), and author of- LET The TOOTH BE KNOWN, now in its fourth edition.

She began her career as a dental hygienist after graduating from the University of Texas Dental School in 1988 and was eventually appointed to the Texas State Board of Dental Examiners by the governor, serving two terms.

A thirst for knowledge about the human body immersed her in the world of emergency medicine. Becoming a Nationally Registered Paramedic, she spent 12 years on a 911 ambulance and four years in international air ambulance transport.

She began teaching CPR to the public, Advanced Cardiac Life Support to health care providers and became an affiliate faculty member of the American Heart Association in 1987.

She was drawn back into dentistry by a biological dentist. He was looking for someone with knowledge of the body as a whole, not just the mouth. This new excitement led her to return to school for a doctorate in naturopathy, a PhD in holistic nutrition and a doctorate in integrative medicine at Capital University of Integrative Medicine.

Obviously a perpetual student, Dr. Dawn continues to do far more than the 80 hours of continuing education each year required for her combined licenses.

Outside of work, she is a certified SCUBA diver and pilot, and an active member of her church community, having served many roles in her Christian walk. Family is central, with both her husband and father helping out in her practice. The mother of a neurologically challenged son, she is very aware of just how important family is.
