Results shown are from individual practices. Outcomes vary based on team participation, implementation, scheduling, and other practice-specific factors.
See Living Oral Biofilm in Real Time
A phase contrast microscope shows what is happening in your patient’s mouth today. No staining. No drying. No textbook image.
With proper sampling and focus, your team can observe:
• Biofilm density and activity
• Shifts in cocci and rods
• Spirochetes and other higher-risk patterns
• Amoebae and trichomonads
• Yeast and other opportunistic findings
• Inflammatory cells that support a deeper periodontal conversation
When patients see their own living biofilm on screen, the diagnosis becomes real. They understand why treatment matters and are more prepared to act.
Real Teams. Real Transformation.

YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
Phase Contrast Microscope Training FAQs
Straight answers about the training, timing, investment, microscope setup, and what your team keeps after the program.
Book a Complimentary CallHow does the program work?
The TOSH Method combines two live Zoom trainings each month with self-paced, 25–35 minute videos, workbooks, patient education materials, scripts, protocols, and personalized support. Everything is customized to your practice so your team can implement the system in real clinical workflows.
What is the program investment?
Training is month-to-month during implementation. The investment is roughly comparable to the production from one full-mouth periodontal therapy case per month. We will review the scope and exact investment for your practice during a complimentary call.
How long does training take?
Every practice starts in a different place, but most teams complete the primary implementation in about six to eight months. We adjust the pace to your team, technology, and goals so the systems are truly installed, not simply introduced.
Should we buy a microscope before training?
No. We first establish your periodontal protocols, scheduling, billing, and practice workflows. Then I can help you select the right microscope and determine how many your team needs. Multiple hygienists can share one microscope, although availability will limit how many samples can be taken each day.
How long do we keep access to the program?
Your team receives lifetime access to the training videos, workbooks, and online learning platform after completing the program. You can return for refreshers or use the materials to train future team members.
Is a microscope required to diagnose periodontitis?
No. Periodontitis is diagnosed using clinical and radiographic findings. Phase contrast microscopy adds real-time visualization of living oral biofilm, helping your team recognize microbial patterns, communicate risk more clearly, and show patients why treatment matters.
