Show notes

Dr. Kammer shares how he continually finds joy despite major professional (and persona)l set backs.

For more than 20 years, Dr. Chris Kammer has been at the forefront of emerging technologies and approaches in dentistry, and has become America’s most active advocate for the “oral systemic” approach of disease prevention. A founding member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, Dr. Kammer has spent his career introducing and implementing technologies that have revolutionized dental treatment – changing lives, improving systemic health, and creating beautiful smiles. His work with the oral systemic approach, a recent movement in medicine and dentistry that improves general health by optimizing oral health, has helped many of his patients gain increased resistance to chronic disease, including heart disease, stroke, diabetes, some types of cancer, and Alzheimer’s, as well as pre-term birth, and obesity. His work in cosmetic dentistry has helped to change dental protocol in America and abroad.

Dr. Kammer’s work has been presented at numerous dental conferences, conventions, and seminars, and has been published in leading dental journals. He is also on the technology team for Dental Products Report. In recent years he has been a passionate educator in the media and in professional forums about the importance of the oral systemic approach. His Hygiene Transformation seminar was the first in the country to train dentists on performing in-office blood testing and how it relates to dentistry and systemic health.

179 On The Move with Deana Zost : Dentistry Uncensored with Howard Farran Oct 06, 2015

Show notes

Deana Zost is a walking, breathing example of what an office manager should be. Why does she do what she does, and what keeps her going and going?

Deana Zost, Dental Nerd/Office Manger/Vice President of the DFW Chapter of A.A.D.O.M, 2015 Scholarship Recipient to AADOM's National Conference in August 2015, Sunshine Spreader, Runner, Cyclist, Bikram Yoga Lover. I have enjoyed 24 years of caring for patients with some of the best people I've ever met. I have been so fortunate to learn every aspect of working in dentistry except being the dentist (but I do joke that "although I'm not a dentist, I play one on TV.) My joy comes from seeing so many people have life transformations due to the confidence and health that dental treatment has provided for them. My heart for people drives my love for jumping out of bed everyday. It's exciting because you never know who you are going to meet, what you are going to learn from them, and how you have the ability to change a patient's perception of dentistry. I love, love, love hearing how much patients love coming to our office-I hear many times "Wow, I never thought I would be so excited to come to a dental appointment!"
