I Make Dental Pharmacology What It Was Always Meant To Be — Your Most Valuable Instrument In Treating Today's Medically Complex Patient

Treating today's medically complex patients requires dental professionals to understand both the medical side of dentistry and the dental side of medicine. My mission is to help dental professionals and students use pharmacology to bridge these two worlds.

Since 2001, I have presented more than 2,000 seminars and webinars internationally, and I'm honored to serve on the faculty at colleges and universities nationwide.

Your attendees won't leave one of my presentations with a drug list to memorize. They'll leave able to make confident, informed decisions they can use in practice the very next day.

The three most important questions of any dental appointment:
  • What do you take?
  • Why do you take it?
  • Did you take it today?
