Listen "Dr. Shandra Rosenfeldt on Integrative Dentistry, Red-Light Therapy, and Whole-Patient Care"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Innovators of Health, Dr. Shandra Rosenfeldt shares how she built Serenity Valley Family Dental around whole-patient, evidence-driven care—linking oral health to systemic health. She details where photobiomodulation (red/near-infrared light) fits into modern dentistry (pre/post-procedure pain, inflammation, recovery) and how pairing PBM with other therapies improves outcomes without adding chair time. Dr. Rosenfeldt also breaks down practical clinic-to-home protocols, patient education that drives adherence, and why cross-disciplinary collaboration is the future of dental care.Takeaways🦷 Patient-first practice: Warm, comprehensive care that treats the person—not just the tooth.🌐 Mouth–body link: Oral health impacts systemic health; care plans reflect the whole picture.🔴 PBM as a core adjunct: Short red/NIR sessions reduce pain & inflammation and speed recovery.🔗 Layered therapy wins: PBM integrates seamlessly with other dental treatments for better results.🏠 Clinic → home: Simple dosing routines extend benefits and boost patient adherence.🧠 Educate & empower: Clear options + protocols improve confidence and outcomes.🤝 Collaborate to elevate: Working with other providers lifts patient care and access to innovation.🚀 Future-ready dentistry: Embrace safe, evidence-based tech that scales care (and operations).Watch all of our Innovators of Health Video Episodes at: https://www.youtube.com/@InnovatorsofHealth Learn more at Red Light Therapy at redvivehealth.org
