Osteoporosis Protection and Mineral Support Formula for Orthodontics, Oral Surgery, and Periodontics
Pharmaden has developed a unique proprietary formulation called Osteotherapy that significantly enhances bone remineralization. Dr. Ron Schefdore's step-by-step approach DVD for periodontal wellness and 1-hour phone "Lunch-n-Learn" will energize your staff and explode profits. This functional approach uses neutraceuticals—pharmaceutical-grade nutrients (not available in stores). Pharma­ceutical-grade nutrients ensure superior quality for greater efficacy and absorption and are balanced in the proper proportion to create the optimum synergistic blend. Osteotherapy was designed to assist the body in efficiently restoring optimal density to the alveolar bone involved in the procedures of orthodontia and oral surgery as well as depletion resulting from periodontitis. Osteotherapy is excellent for patients with tooth sensitivity and may also be used as a supplementation for bone loss associated with osteoporosis.
