Biological dentistry goes far beyond cavities and cleanings—it’s about understanding how your mouth connects to your entire body. In this episode, Dr. Toni Engram explains how the oral microbiome impacts inflammation, hormones, digestion, and even healing from chronic illness.
We cover:
Why dental materials (like mercury fillings and fluoride) matter for long-term health.
How to safely approach dental care during cancer treatment.
Everyday practices—like nutrient-dense food, flossing, and tongue scraping—that protect oral and systemic health.
Listen now and discover how supporting your oral health can support your healing.
