The most comprehensive educational platform for today's dental teams - where biological, functional and modern dentistry come together in one place.

Our Mission

This isn't CE just for the doctor. It's a shared learning experience for the whole team — when the front desk, the hygienist, the assistant, and the doctor are all on the same page, something remarkable happens: patients feel it. Trust deepens. Outcomes improve. Your practice becomes a community anchor for real health.

Dentistry is no longer just about teeth.

The mouth is a window into the whole body — and every dental appointment is an opportunity to impact health. WHDA trains entire dental teams to see and treat the whole patient through live, accredited CE built for the modern dental practice.

Adult Airway: What Every Dental Team Should Know

Your patients are breathing through their mouths, waking up exhausted, and nobody has connected the dots — yet.

Whole Health Dentistry 101

The foundation for comprehensive, functional dentistry — built for your whole team. This course covers the clinical science connecting oral health to whole-body wellness. Two live sessions cover ozone, mercury-safe protocols, fluoride, nutrition, root canals, airway, and more. Walk away with the knowledge and language to speak to patients with real confidence. Evidence-based. Immediately applicable.

The Comprehensive Approach

What it means to be a biological dental team.

  • Listening to and caring about the patient as a whole person, not a collection of symptoms

  • Seeing the mouth as part of the whole body — connected to airway, sleep, nutrition, and systemic health

  • Prioritizing overall health and always asking: “What's the best treatment for this patient?” (not just the tooth)

  • Using the least invasive, most supportive approaches

  • Educating patients with clarity, consent, and respect — not fear

  • Integrating conventional dentistry with evidence-informed complementary tools and techniques

  • Focusing on long-term health outcomes — not just short-term fixes

This philosophy is complementary to functional medicine — and it requires a team that shares it.

This isn't CE just for the doctor. It's a shared learning experience for the whole team — built so everyone, from the front desk to the operatory, speaks the same language and works as one cohesive unit. One place to learn biological, functional, whole health modern dentistry, together, to benefit the patient.

Who This Is For

Built for the entire dental team.

This is not a CE course just for the doctor. It's an onboarding system for the whole office — so everyone speaks the same language and delivers care with the same values.

General Dentists

Interested in biological, comprehensive dentistry but don't know what it's about? Or are you a new associate in a biological practice? Start with Whole Health Dentistry 101. After that, you'll have a steady grasp on core concepts and will be better able to relate with patients seeking a biological dentist. You may also rediscover your 'why' and start seeing every patient as an opportunity for real, lasting impact.

Dental Hygienists

For hygienists who are ready to see beyond the mouth. The 101 course and monthly specialty sessions give you a deeper understanding of the systemic connections between oral health and whole-body wellness — and walk away with powerful tools and language to educate your patients in a way that truly impacts them — because you are often the reason patients stay.

Dental Assistants

Ever nodded along while a patient talks about heavy metals, supplement names, or biomimetic dentistry — and secretly had no idea what they meant? Our courses change that.

You'll walk away with the clinical knowledge and language to hold your own in any patient conversation, support your team with confidence, and see your role as far more than passing instruments.

Front Desk & Coordinators

The front desk doesn't just manage schedules — it holds the heartbeat of the practice. And in a biological office, that heartbeat has to speak the language.

You'll walk away with the knowledge and confidence to attract the right patients, answer their questions, and guide them through their care — from the first phone call to checkout. You'll see your role as far more than logistics.

"This isn't revolutionary dentistry — it's evolutionary. Finally treating the mouth as what it always was: part of a living, breathing, whole person."

— Dr. Bernice Teplitsky, DDS, NMD
