"Our annual Breathing Wellness Conference brings together leading clinicians and researchers from a wide range of healthcare disciplines and serves as a platform where we can learn about the causes and serious health consequences of OSA and the latest advances in the world of sleep medicine while continuing to spread the message about Vivos' breakthrough technology," said Kirk Huntsman, Chairman and CEO of Vivos.
In years past, attendees have gained practice benefits and treatment options that can be life-altering for OSA patients. "The Breathing Wellness Conference is, hands down, my favorite conference of the year! The lecturers are always phenomenal, and the camaraderie of dental professionals is unparalleled," said Dr. Michelle Rowe, a Vivos Integrated Provider and owner and general dentist of Willow Spring Family Dentistry in Centennial, Colorado. "I have met some of my closest friends and some of the most inspirational dentists at this conference. I highly recommend this conference for all doctors who are starting their journey into sleep dentistry."
"I invested to bring 12 team members across the country for the Vivos Breathing Wellness Conference last year," said Dr. James Massa, owner of Massa Dental Center in Naples, Florida, and a Vivos Integrated Provider. "It was one of the best investments of my 30-year dental career!
