Hello friends! I’m SO excited to share this week’s episode with the biological dentist Dr. Toni Engramand this one is really an eye-opener. We dive deep into the powerful connection between oral health, gut health, inflammation, and the rest of the body—and how what happens in your mouth can impact your hormones, immune system, brain, and more.
Dr. Toni shares her personal journey with Crohn’s disease, which completely changed her approach to dentistry and led her into the world of biological and functional dentistry. We talk about hidden dental infections, root canals, sealants, respiratory health, jaw development, cavitations and what it really means to treat the cause; not just the symptoms.
If you’ve ever wondered if your dental work could be impacting your overall health, or if you’re trying to take a more holistic approach to healing… then this episode is a must-listen.
