I have to start doing these kind of exercises!! I’m also so excited for my new andau medical . Thanks to my girl Jolaine for hooking a girl up. I’ll post a picture as soon as they arrive. 🙌🥰🥳

Ergonomics are so important in my industry. I have not been kind to my body. Starting as a caterer in my teens. Lifting milk crates filled with dinner plates and packing them on trucks, definitely without bending my knees 😂 Now the many years I’ve spent, aging in dentistry. My body hurts!!

I don’t believe in pharmaceuticals so starting now I’m taking care of me and my temple! Honour your body and it will honour you. 🙌🦷🧚🏻‍♀️

Take a look at this!! Another systemic health link between cancer of the breast and gum disease.

Prevention is the best cure for cancer, heart disease, stroke, diabetes and many more. These conditions require dental cleanings 3-4m apart. This lowers the bacteria levels that cause this serious gum disease and worsens these medical issues. Book now and let’s chat about how regular dental cleanings can lessen your risk’s with your conditions and in some cases reduce use of medications 👍🦷🧚🏻‍♀️

There are also amazing products available that are Canadian made like X-Pur products. The Opti .2% formula paired with the Remin toothpaste are a great start. ❤️🦷🧚🏻‍♀️

Researchers are uncovering a surprising connection between gum disease and breast cancer.

A well-known oral bacterium linked to periodontitis has been detected inside breast cancer tissue, raising new questions about how oral health may influence disease beyond the mouth.

According to recent findings, this bacterium can travel from the oral cavity to the breast, likely spreading through the bloodstream or the mammary ducts.

Once inside breast tissue, it doesn’t remain passive—it can adapt to the tumor environment and persist within cancer cells.

Even more concerning, laboratory evidence suggests this gum disease–associated bacterium may accelerate tumor growth and progression by interacting with cancer cells and the immune system.

This does not mean gum disease causes breast cancer, but it highlights a possible biological link worth serious attention.

The takeaway is clear: oral health is not isolated from overall health. Preventing and treating periodontal disease is not just about saving teeth—it may play a role in reducing systemic inflammation and potential downstream health risks.
