Vivos provides extensive training in both live and online formats.  We strongly recommend that providers take the time and make the commitment to attend as many of the in-person trainings in Colorado as possible. Online training works well for refresher courses and general orientation, but our most productive providers with the highest ROI have all focused on in person training with their team present.  Most courses run Thursday / Friday / and half a day on Saturday.

Any staff employed in your practice can train as often as they wish at no additional fee. If you have an associate who will also be treating patients with The Vivos Method, he or she will need to pay the one-time associate fee.

Originally, the VIP training program was set up for unlimited access over the course of 12 months following enrollment.  With the advent of Covid-19, we have decided to extend access beyond the 12-month term at no additional charge.  This policy will remain in place during 2022 and will be reevaluated thereafter.  Unlimited access to online training will be available to all Vivos Integrated Providers with no expiration.

Most training can be done online, however, the best results and most rapid path to starting cases in your practice typically occur after the provider and team attend live training courses in Colorado.

Yes, we encourage the entire team to get onboard with treating airway in your practice.  Not all training will be relevant to your staff and your onboarding specialist can recommended who needs to attend what.

All licensed dentists who prescribe must be properly trained and certified by Vivos. Training fees for associate doctors are very reasonable and can be fully recouped after treating just a couple of patients with The Vivos Method.

We strongly encourage providers to follow the prescribed path of learning and development.  Most providers are ready to submit cases after their first 2 training sessions.  Our Practice Advisory team will engage with your team to orchestrate a “Family and Staff Day” to establish standard protocols within your practice.  Most providers will start 3-5 cases on this training day and are then ready to clinically assess, diagnosis (with an MD), close, and start cases with confidence going forward.

You will become part of the Vivos Provider Network upon completion of the first series of online courses and attendance at the LIVE hands-on training.

Most major commercial insurance payers reimburse for our adult treatment. The average level of reimbursement is approximately 50% (ranging from 5% to 70%), although medical insurance is never a guarantee of payment, and patient deductibles typically vary. At the present time, commercial health insurance reimbursement is primarily limited to adult patients.  Parents of pediatric patients will typically make use of their orthodontic insurance benefits or choose to pay out of pocket for treatment.

Patient compliance is key to treatment success.  Generally, when patient compliance is high, treatment outcomes are successful.  Individual results will vary, and no treatment is 100% effective.

Vivos providers effectively treat patients as young as 3-4 and as old as 84-85.

That will be determined by their treating dentist and physician.  Some Vivos patients begin treatment using both CPAP and the Vivos Method and many eventually get off their CPAP machines and finish out in just their Vivos device.

No. Vivos maintains strict quality controls over product designs, materials, and finished products.  In order to meet rising demand, Vivos has certified a limited number of approved contract labs to manufacture Vivos devices.  All of our labs are FDA certified and approved. 

We teach you precisely what records to take and why each element of the patient record is essential for medical documentation and insurance coverage.  This question will be more thoroughly reviewed and answered during our training courses.

No, Vivos uses our own sleep screening device that can be used in the comfort of the patients own home.  The test is read and interpreted by a sleep physician licensed in the patient’s state of residence.

Typically, 15 X 15 or larger is acceptable.

This number varies from place to place and time to time.  New Vivos providers are always coming on board. 

This will vary depending on a patient’s treatment plan. Typically, during the first year, every 6-8 weeks.  Thereafter, every 10-12 weeks or at the discretion of the treating provider.

As little as 9 months or up to 24 months and beyond.  We believe patients who incorporate Vivos’ myofunctional therapy protocols into their treatment tend to experience better compliance, shorter treatment times, and better clinical outcomes.

The FDA has cleared certain Vivos appliances to treat mild to moderate OSA and snoring in adults.

Enrollment programs are constantly being revised and updated.  Please speak with one of our Enrollment Specialists for the latest offerings.
