CHICAGO, Illinois--"I recently spent two days at a medical preceptorship on preventing heart attacks, stroke, and diabetes--and the oral inflammatory connection with whole-body inflammatory burden--and came away a changed dentist and person!"
Those words came from Lee Ostler, DDS, of Richland, Wash.

"After years in the game as a practicing dentist, writing software utilities to foster collaboration, and automate clinical protocols, this has truly changed my perspective and approach," continued Dr. Ostler.
The Inaugural Scientific Session will bring together leading cardiology, diabetes, and oral health authorities to present topics related to the connections between oral and overall health and wellness.
Dr. Ostler and Bob Maccario, MBA, will present how to build professional relationships and use Web-based technology to automate clinical protocols and physician communications and referrals.
