Your mouth impacts how you sleep, breathe, and heal. And if you ignore your oral health, your body can stay in a stressful state.

This is why I look at the mouth, airway, and nervous system together. Healing works better when the systems support each other.

Follow my account to learn how to approach your whole body health from an oral perspective.

These might seem odd, but here are the rules I follow for my own health to try and stay out of fight or flight:

👉 I breathe through my nose as much as I can
Nose breathing helps my airway stay open and keeps my mouth from drying out.

👉 I keep my tongue on the roof of my mouth
This helps my jaw stay in a good place and lets my airway stay wide at night.

👉 I relax my neck and jaw before bed
A calm jaw means less clenching and better sleep.

👉 I avoid commercial mouthwash
My mouth needs good bacteria to stay healthy.

👉 I drink filtered water
It lowers the stress on my body and supports healing.

If you want help getting out of fight or flight and supporting your sleep and your breathing, comment follow my account.
And remember you can also call my office to schedule your appointment = and to support your whole body health through an oral perspective.

Stop Walking Around Feeling Like a Zombie!!

When your airway is too small, every part of your body works harder. 😩

That’s why the first habit I’d kick is Mouth Breathing!
Mouth breathing narrows the airway, strains the body, and keeps you from truly resting.

If you’re only thinking about snoring or trying to sleep longer, you’re skipping the root cause. Protecting your airway is what lets your body recharge.

In my practice, I look beyond the teeth to see how your airway shapes your health.

👉 Comment AIRWAY to learn how you can get an airway assessment at my office. I would be pleased to help you!

😩 Your body keeps hitting a wall. You want more energy, but you still wake up tired and feel worn out during the day.

Many adults never think about their airway. When your airway is narrow or blocked at night, your brain wakes you up to get more air. You can sleep for hours and still feel wiped out in the morning. Your body stays tense and healing slows down.

ALL THREE work together:
Your airway
your mouth,
and your sleep.

When we check your airway, we can see why your body might not be resting the way it should.

FOLLOW my account and call my office to book a visit if you want help with your sleep and your energy.

WHAT is in your water? 🤢 Likely you drink without thinking about what it touched before it reached your glass. A lot of water today carries leftovers from plastics, food containers, and pipes. Our bodies are not built to deal with that load every day.

Plastics can build up in the system and make it harder for the body to detoxify.

If you want to protect your health, start with clean water. Filter it. Store it in glass or stainless steel. Pay attention to what your water sits in.

Your body works better when the water you drink supports your cells instead of stressing them.

SHARE this post with someone who needs to know what's in their water!
And call my office if you're ready for whole body health from an oral approach.

Did you know that different types of magnesium do different jobs:
• Glycinate can help your body relax at night.
• Threonate can help your brain think and remember.

Both feed the mitochondria, your cells’ power makers. Stress burns through magnesium, so low levels can show up as brain fog, jaw clenching, and restless sleep.

If you wake up tired or feel foggy, I can help. At my office we check things like your mouth, bite, and airway, and create a simple plan so you can support better sleep and healing.

CALL my office to book a visit and learn how to support your whole body health through the mouth.

Ready for your daily dose of medicines, metals, chemicals, and leftovers from other people’s bodies? 🤢

You think tap water looks safe, but it can carry things that are not meant to be in your system.
You drink it. You cook with it. You shower in it. Your skin and your mouth take it all in.

Over time, this slows healing and puts more stress on your whole body.

Clean water helps your body stay steady.
It supports your energy.
It can help your mouth recover after dental work.

This is why I encourage my patients to use the cleanest water they can. For example, filtered water at home.
Small changes like this make a big difference in how your body heals.

When you're in chronic fight or flight, your body struggles to heal.
Digestion slows. Muscles stay tight. Cortisol rises. Sleep is practically impossible.
You might find yourself waking at 2 or 3 a.m., and feeling tired all day.

I help my patients switch into rest and digest. In my office, we use simple tools to calm stress and set a better sleep rhythm. A calm body can heal better after a dental procedure. A calm and rested body can function properly.

If you're looking to feel calm and relaxed before, during, and after dental work, CALL my office. We would love to help you have the best care we can offer.

And SHARE this video with someone who can relate.

⚠️ Cold sores can feel embarrassing and hard to deal with when they keep coming back. They often show up when the body is run down. This can make leave you wondering why it keeps happening.

This is why Methylene blue can be used to help with viral infections. It's a different approach than using antibiotics. Methylene blue supports the mitochondria, the parts of the cell that give the body the power it needs to handle viral flare patterns.

At my office we can use Methylene blue, vitamin C, and even laser therapy to support the body during these flare patterns. Patients may notice quicker healing and fewer repeat outbreaks when we address the deeper cause instead of only the sore on the surface.

Call my office for an appointment if you are looking for whole body health from a root cause approach. I want to help you move toward better healing and fewer setbacks.

Your body can only rest when your nervous system feels safe.
This Pulsetto device helps calm my system so I can breathe, sleep, and think clearly throughout the day.

If your body feels wired all the time or you can’t slow down, you need help getting your body into the state of rest and digest.
