Continuing Education & Certifications

Dr. Linda Golden continually advances her knowledge through hands-on residencies and cutting-edge training in biological surgery. In 2023, she completed a prestigious Tufts-certified residency in Biological Dentistry, Surgical Extraction, and Regeneration based on Guided Open Wound Healing, developed by Prof. Dr. Shahram Ghanaati and the Academy for Biological Innovations in Surgery (ABIS).

Tufts / ABIS / Ghanaati – Open Wound Healing & Regeneration Masterclass

Dr. Golden completed advanced training in Prof. Shahram Ghanaati’s open wound healing protocols — a biological approach that enhances tissue regeneration and immune compatibility. The course was hosted by the American Bio-Implant Society (ABIS) and Tufts University School of Dental Medicine. This certification reflects a high-level commitment to natural healing methods, autologous materials, and precise biological surgical techniques.

Photobiomodulation & Red Light Therapy for Dentistry

This specialized training focused on the science and clinical application of red light and near-infrared photobiomodulation (PBM) in dentistry. Dr. Golden uses PBM to accelerate healing, reduce inflammation, and improve tissue outcomes post-surgery.

Titanium & Zirconia Toxicity – Biomaterials Research Certification

Dr. Golden stays at the forefront of implant safety through her studies on particle release from titanium and zirconia implants. This research informs her clinical choice to use zirconia, a more biocompatible ceramic with lower inflammatory risks.

Focal Infection Theory & Systemic Disease

With a deep understanding of the historical and modern debates around root canals and jawbone infection, Dr. Golden engages with the literature on focal infection theory — a concept linking oral pathogens to systemic illness.

Functional Diagnostic Tools – OligoScan, Igloo, OralCDx

Dr. Golden holds training in advanced biological testing tools, including mineral scans (OligoScan), on-site diagnostics (Igloo), and early oral cancer screening (OralCDx). These tools allow her to deliver highly personalized treatment plans rooted in data.

Biological Dentistry & Somatic Healing – Dr. Mora

Dr. Golden expanded her integrative knowledge through in-person study with Dr. Mora, who teaches biological dentistry as part of a broader healing ecosystem. This program emphasizes trauma-informed care, somatic presence, and deeper attunement to patient physiology and energy.
