736 Oral Systemic Health with Dr. Chris Kammer and Dr. Jacqueline Russo : Dentistry Uncensored with Howard Farran - a podcast by Howard Farran: Dentist | Dental CE Speaker | Founder & CEO of Dentaltown.co

Jacqueline Russo:

Jacqueline Russo began her journey in healthcare as a registered nurse and ultimately became a dentist and enjoyed a private practice in FL for 15 years.    After having health issues of her own which caused her to retire early in her career as a dentist, she became disillusioned by the mainstream medical approach of treating symptoms and not cause of disease.

She became a voracious student of all things “alternative” like nutrition, supplementation, genetics and stress management.  As her own health improved, she began coaching clients, and noticed that those with periodontal issues had more difficulties returning to overall health.  Then she met Chris Kammer at the inaugural meeting of AAOSH in Madison WI and all the pieces started fitting together.  She now is a board member for AAOSH, continues her pursuit of knowledge in integrative medicine and is passionate about sharing the mission of AAOSH and elevating the profession of dentistry so we can save lives!

 

Chris Kammer:

For more than 20 years, Dr. Chris Kammer has been at the forefront of emerging technologies and ideas in dentistry, and has become one of America’s most active advocates for the "oral systemic" approach for disease prevention. He's the founding father of the American Academy for Oral Systemic Health (AAOSH). This organization has partnered with the world class medical experts from the Cleveland Clinic to educate physicians and dental teams on the critical significance of how the health of the mouth impacts the health of the body. His work with the oral systemic approach has helped many dental teams and their 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.

Dr. Kammer was one of the first clinicians in America to develop a protocol for disease prevention with the oral systemic approach, using his comprehensive “Gums of Steel” program. He has helped bring the practice of oral systemics from its early philosophical stage to its current widespread recognition as an important healing approach that integrates medicine and dentistry and has the studies and results to back it up.

Dr. Kammer’s work has been presented at numerous dental conferences, conventions, and seminars, and has been published in leading dental journals. He has also been a chief dental consultant for Reader’s Digest, and has been quoted in many publications including USA Today, The New York Times, Cosmopolitan, Redbook, and Woman’s Day. He was featured on ABC World News Tonight with Diane Sawyer as their Person of the Week. He has also appeared widely on national television and radio programs including The Today show, Fox and Friends, CBS MarketWatch, CNN, NPR, Montel Williams, and even Late Night with David Letterman and American Idol.
