By now, you’ve heard of the gut biome and how critical those little bacteria are in supporting your overall wellbeing. Well, today, Dr. Mark Burhenne joins me to dive into even further detail with one specific, important, and very famous, part of our digestive system – our mouth!
It’s about so much more than bad breath and coffee stains, although we cover the importance of the small stuff too. The truth is that oral health is directly involved in six-to-seven out of ten major chronic diseases. How well, or poorly, we take care of our mouths, is reflected in our longevity and ability to combat illness.
In this illuminating episode, we learn how modern dentistry incorporates this information (or not), what toothpaste and mouthwash are really doing in our mouth vs. what we think they’re doing, and of course – how our oral health can impact pregnancy and general fertility. Settle in for the most enjoyable trip to the dentist you’ve ever had!
