Non-Members - Accreditation
The IAOMT Accreditation Program is the pathway to
the future of dentistry. The medical and dental communities are finally
coming to the realization that the oral cavity is indeed part of the
body, and that dental health and therapy cannot be divorced from systemic
health. Even patients are now demanding "qualified" or "specially
trained" biocompatible dentists.
Accreditation by the IAOMT will certify to the public that a member
has been trained and tested in the basics of biocompatible dentistry,
including current methods for safe removal of dental amalgam.
The Education Committee has established the following requirements
for IAOMT Accreditation:
- Active membership in IAOMT.
- Enrollment; consisting of a fee of $1000.00 (U.S.), made out to "IAOMT" and
sent to the office. If you wish, this may be submitted in installments;
$500 at application, $500 by completion of the requirements.
- Attendance at a minimum of two IAOMT meetings including the Fundamentals
of Biological Dentistry course.
- Successful completion of a Written Examination on the six Core
Curriculum Courses and IAOMT Standards of Care (requirement of 90%
correct for each section).
- Two Amalgam Replacement Case Histories, from examination to completion
and follow-up, presented at an oral interview conducted at an IAOMT
meeting (Friday afternoons; by appointment with the Executive Director).
Upon enrollment in the accreditation program, you receive:
- Video tapes of the six Core Curriculum Courses.
- The IAOMT Standards of Care (SOC).
- The written examination (to be sent to the IAOMT office upon
completion; 90% correct required per section; sections failed must
be repeated and resubmitted).
- Instructions and forms for the two case presentations.
All these items are for completion at home, except the interview
for the two case histories.
