Understanding oral health as a systemic factor
They recognize how dental interference fields, dental materials & oral inflammations influence systemic processes & learn to specifically consider these in diagnostics & therapy.
Why this one-day workshop will change your perspective on practice
Chronic conditions, treatment resistance, and unclear inflammatory processes can often no longer be viewed in isolation. Oral health plays a central, often underestimated role for the entire organism.
In this intensive one-day workshop, you will work together with Dr. Dirk Schreckenbach on real case studies from dentistry and functional medicine . You will analyze the connections between oral findings, systemic inflammation, mitochondrial function, and micronutrient status, and derive practical diagnostic and therapeutic strategies from this analysis.
Instead of traditional lectures, you will experience a compact workshop day where functional diagnostics becomes understandable, applicable and directly integrable into your daily practice – for greater safety, clarity and sustainable therapy success.
Highlights of this one-day workshop

Isabelle Viel, Licensed Alternative Practitioner
"For me, the partnership with MITOcare is a great highlight because I meet all the colleagues here with whom I can network - whether from conventional medicine or alternative practitioners who face similar challenges. We have the same successes and the feeling that we have to bring this out into the world."
Ingrid Staar, Licensed Alternative Practitioner
"I particularly appreciate the clear concepts and the Causa Logica, which give me structure in practice, as well as the MITOcare Academy, through which I can deepen my knowledge and achieve even greater success. I am very proud to be able to apply this in my practice - it makes my work in functional medicine even more valuable."
Reiner Kraft, expert in functional epigenetics
"My biggest challenge for a long time was deriving a sensible therapy from individual nutrients – it was complicated and prone to errors. With MITOcare products, it's different: There are clear combinations for various areas of application that are practical and effective."
Frequently Asked Questions & Answers
What is special about this one-day workshop?
This one-day seminar is not a traditional lecture day, but an interactive, practice-oriented workshop.
The focus is on collaborative work on real-world case studies from dentistry and functional medicine. Together with Dr. Dirk Schreckenbach, you will analyze the connections between oral health and systemic processes, develop diagnostic considerations, and derive structured therapeutic decisions.
Instead of theoretical lectures, you will experience an intensive learning day where functional diagnostics, dental influencing factors and therapeutic strategies become understandable, tangible and directly applicable in your own daily practice – with a focus on concrete decision-making processes and sustainable therapy successes.
Who is the workshop suitable for?
The one-day seminar is aimed at dentists, doctors, alternative practitioners and interdisciplinary therapists who want to understand the connections between oral and systemic health and apply functional medicine in practice .
If you want to be able to confidently classify dental influencing factors, use functional diagnostics in a practical way, and arrive at well-founded diagnostic and therapeutic decisions based on real case studies, this workshop offers you clear and sustainable added value .
How can the workshop benefit my daily work?
You will gain confidence in recognizing oral findings, dental interference fields, and dental materials as systemic influencing factors and in classifying them functionally. You will learn to specifically incorporate the connections between oral health, systemic inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction into your diagnostic and therapeutic considerations.
