27. Why Biological Dentistry & Oral Health Hold the Keys to a Healthier You with Dr. Stuart Nunnally and Dr. Lane Freeman

Do you know what's actually going on in your mouth? It’s more vital than you might think. This week, I’m joined by two guests, Dr. Stuart Nunnally and Dr. Lane Freeman, biological dentists as well as my own personal dentists, who shed a much-needed spotlight on the link between oral health and your overall well-being, plus the questions you should be asking at your next dentist appointment. In this episode, you'll discover: What Is Biological Dentistry: Deep-dive into how this integrative modality differs from conventional dentistry. How to Support the Oral Microbiome: Understand how your approach to oral hygiene can make or break your holistic health in the long term.  The “Most Important” Prevention Tips: Learn what you need—and don’t need—to combat future health issues. (Hint: A water flosser is a great idea, says Dr. Freeman.)
