Why Get Started? 

What if the most common chronic diseases in the world were already walking into your operatory every day? They are. The mouth is a first line to find the underlying causes.

Integrated Training

This program is all about the oral Microbiome, Dental Oral Systemic Medicine, and putting Functional Dentistry into your practice. You'll learn to test and interpret the oral microbiome, turn results into periodontal protocols, and apply functional periodontics and laboratory testing. This is where the clinical team becomes one.

Specialized IFD Modules

This program explores hygiene-specific content, including
advanced oral microbiome mapping, root-cause periodontal protocols
and functional patient coaching.

Functional Learning Series

You will complete dental-specific modules addressing environmental contributors to

periodontal disease and oral-systemic health, including toxic exposures,

biotransformation pathways, and inflammatory burden.

Curriculum Details

Master the Oral Microbiome program is a full dive into Dental-Oral-Systemic Health. This curriculum follows the mouth's connections to the brain, blood sugar, reflux, and hormones, strengthen your recognition of oral pathology and oral cancer, and explore therapies that support healing and regeneration, including ozone, remineralization, and platelet-rich fibrin, along with the genomics that help explain why patients respond differently. This is the practical mastery education for managing the oral microbiome in daily care.

Our motto is

#Mouth Matters| #Spit for Science| #Bridge the Gap


Join thousands of clinicians transforming the way they understand, diagnose, and address oral-systemic health.

Continuing Education Disclosure:

Continuing education (CE) credit for the Institute for Functional Dentistry (IFD) Certification Program is awarded on a module-by-module basis in accordance with AGD PACE guidelines. All IFD courses are self-paced and didactic; no hands-on clinical training is included. Each CE-eligible module consists of required educational components, which may include self-instruction lectures and associated assessments. Completion of all CE-eligible components and the module evaluation is required to earn CE credit. Case studies, integration sessions, and discussion-based learning experiences are included for educational enrichment but are designated as non-CE activities. Participants are encouraged to seek additional hands-on training and clinical mentorship before applying new techniques in patient care settings.The IFD curriculum is structured as a sequential program. Modules must be completed in order (Module 1 through Module 6). Each module builds upon foundational concepts introduced in prior modules. The learning platform is configured to enforce this order, subsequent modules will remain locked until prior modules are successfully completed. This structure ensures all participants enter each stage of the curriculum with the appropriate preparation.

All IFD courses are didactic and self-paced in format. They do not include live patient interaction, supervised clinical practice, or hands-on procedural training. Completion of this course does not confer clinical competency to perform procedures. Participants are advised to supplement didactic learning with appropriate clinical training, mentorship, or supervised hands-on practice before incorporating new techniques into patient care. It is the professional and ethical responsibility of each licensed practitioner to assess their own clinical readiness prior to applying new skills in a patient care setting.
