Are you picky about the toothpastes you recommend?

What if your mouth could tell you more about your health than just whether you have a cavity?

This week on @straightupwithstephpod I’m talking with dentist, nutritionist, author, and holistic health advocate @jamesgoolnik about the mouth-body connection—and we cover A LOT.

We get into sugar and how to kick it,  the oral microbiome, bleeding gums, sleep and airway, saliva testing, mouthwash, DIY whitening, oil pulling, and what true prevention in dentistry could look like.

And can we talk about dental office breakrooms? We educate patients about sugar all day and then walk into a breakroom filled with candy and baked goods. Make it make sense. 😂

This one is for dental professionals AND anyone who wants to better understand their own health.
