Course Outline:

This Alternative Dentistry course is an approach to Dentistry that promotes health and wellness instead of the treatment of disease. This approach to Dentistry encompasses both modern science and knowledge drawn from the world’s great traditions on natural healing. It is sometimes called "Biological" dentistry or "Biocompatible" dentistry. Alternative Dentistry acknowledges and deals with the mind, body, and spirit of the patient, not just his or her "Teeth".

Course Learning Outcomes:

By the end of this course, student should be able to:
1. Know the Proper nutrition for the prevention and reversal of degenerative dental disease
2. Avoid and eliminate toxins from dental materials
3. Prevent and treat of dental malocclusion (bite problems=physical imbalance)
4. Prevent and treat gum disease at its biological basis
5. Understand the differences between the two primary medical philosophies being
practiced today: allopathic (conventional) medicine, and natural medicine (also known
as Alternative medicine, or complementary and alternative medicine (CAM)). The
conventional allopathic system focuses on disease management, whereas the older, more

reestablish health.
6. Provide scientific bases for Alternative medicine such as: Allopathic and Homeopathic
medicine, Acupuncture, Chelation and Oriental Medicine.
