The NAM principle in dentistry starts from the oral
cavity as a crucial locus for the health of our body. The mouth is a
neurological-anatomical-metabolic switching point, a relay for essential
settings in the direction of health and homeostasis and
disease/misregulation.
Immunological diagnoses and procedures as well
as support procedures such as physiotherapy and even psychosomatics
play a particularly important role in this approach.
PBM plays a
central role in this forward-looking approach as a side-effect-free and
effective accompanying procedure for many oral cavity disorders.
The workshop discussed the sub- and intracellular mechanisms of PBM with a focus on dentistry. Participants were dentists, physiotherapists, general practitioners and psychologists. It was led by Charles Breda and Tilman Fritsch.
