Have you ever noticed any of our framed training certificates around the office and wondered what they are for? They are certificates awarded when we complete important training courses in dental education and processes. Please read on to see how these sessions benefit you and why we think LVI is so special!
The LVI Philosophy
We recently returned from training in Las Vegas at the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies (LVI). We have attended many of their training sessions over the years. We find their philosophy and training enables us to bring you the most advanced treatment methods and cutting-edge technology in dentistry.
The LVI emphasizes that the body is a system that works together — problems in one area can and do affect other areas — and they provide training that uses this knowledge to bring better treatment to patients. Your teeth, gums, tongue, and muscles in the face, jaw, and neck need to be in proper balance so your teeth will close together correctly and your oral system can work properly. It may be difficult to believe, but a misaligned bite can cause pain in your jaws, neck, and ears, in addition to causing headaches. I understand how the system works together so I can diagnose your oral problems and create a treatment plan that will resolve the issues, not create new issues.
Our Trips to Las Vegas Bring YOU the Jackpot
We have made many trips to study in Las Vegas at LVI over the years. The knowledge we have accumulated and continue to build upon flows directly into your dental care. We use state-of-the-art radiology equipment to obtain x-rays and will analyze your bite with myotronics — state-of-the-art devices for evaluation and treatment of the muscular and physiological aspects of the orofacial area and their impact on occlusion. Our advanced equipment helps me identify problems in your oral cavity, head, and neck that cause referred pain in other parts of your body. I can then create the best treatments to treat the cause and clear up the associated symptoms.
It is our mission to provide you the best quality dental care available. But the latest technology can only be used for diagnosis and treatment when you are in the office in our chair. When was your last checkup? Call us to set up an appointment today.
All the best,
Dr. Britt
