Dr. Claire Stagg HCD by the Smile Professionals

Dr. Claire Stagg HCD by the Smile Professionals A "Whole Body"​ holistically oriented Dental Practice. We nurture and develop nature’s beautiful smiles. Why Smile Professionals?

The head, neck and teeth are all connected and optimal health begins with the mouth! To Dr. Claire Stagg, Mercury Free Dentistry is not simply a decision to provide mercury free fillings, it is a commitment to provide dentistry that will improve and enhance her patients' dental and overall health. Simply put, Dr. Stagg’s philosophy is Excellence and Health. She understands the relationship between the mouth and the whole body, "The teeth are the tip of the iceberg... there is a whole body attached to the teeth." Dr. Stagg focuses on the connections of the mouth to the body's health and balance. She uses an integrative dental and craniofacial approach promoting vital functions such as smiling, eating and breathing for a higher quality of life. This is evident in her initial comprehensive examination that is exceptionally thorough. She listens to her patient's concerns and needs, and then takes the time to explain the best course of treatment. Most patients comment on how they have never had such a thorough exam. Excellence shows in her constant desire to learn more and apply that knowledge to patient care. Dr. Stagg actively attends advanced continuing education courses that only a handful of dentists in the US attend. We are the only dental office in Brevard with onsite Complex Motion Cranial Tomographic Imaging capability. We also have many other high tech systems for the diagnosis and treatment of TMJ and Sleep Breathing Disorders along with a multitude of treatment modalities for head, neck and facial pain. Dr. Stagg has found it very gratifying to provide lasting relief to patients that have lived with TMJ related pain for many years; refreshing and quiet sleep to snorers and sleep apneics. Her exceptional capabilities show in all aspects from a basic filling to a stunning smile makeover that feels great and can enhance overall health. We proudly serve Brevard County and surrounding areas; especially, the greater Melbourne area, Indian Harbour Beach, Satellite Beach, Viera, Port St. John, Palm Bay, Vero Beach, Suntree, Orlando, West Palm Beach, and Miami.

Crooked Teeth Are Often a Symptom 🦷

Crowding isn’t always genetic.

It’s often the result of:

• Poor tongue posture
• Mouth breathing
• Restricted jaw development

In my book, SMILE, It's All Connected... I explain why addressing function matters more than forcing alignment.

Fix the cause — not just the appearance.

✨ From Patient to Published Author — This Is Why I Do What I Do ✨

I am beyond proud to share something deeply meaningful. One of my patients, Daria Anne DiGiovanni, asked me to help edit and write the foreword to her new book — and it was truly an honor.

Her journey through PCOS, Hashimoto’s, and autoimmune illness is raw, brave, and POWERFUL. This book is not theory. It’s lived experience, persistence, and healing through functional medicine when the traditional sick-care system failed her.

My Escape from the Sick‑Care System is a guide for anyone who knows deep down there has to be a better way — and is ready to take their health back.

Watching a patient transform into an advocate, a leader, and now a published author is exactly why I do this work. Daria, I am so proud of you. 💚

✨ When the Dots Finally Connect — Cecile’s Story (Part 4) ✨

At 78 years young, Cecile shared something that truly stopped me in my tracks: she had never had a dentist explain how everything in her body is connected — until now.

This is what holistic dentistry is really about. It’s not chasing symptoms. It’s building the right foundation. We clear the fires, remove hidden stressors like mercury, stabilize the bite, and allow the body to recalibrate. When we did that, Cecile didn’t just notice changes in her mouth — she felt more relaxed, more limber, and better overall.

Once patients finally see the full picture, everything changes. Awareness creates empowerment. And empowerment opens the door to healing.

🚨 Everyone on TikTok is talking about “mewing”… but most of what you’re seeing is missing the science.

As a biological dentist, I’m seeing more patients confused — and sometimes harmed — by viral jawline and tongue-posture trends. 😬

In this article, I break down what actually matters when it comes to tongue posture, facial development, breathing, and airway health — and what TikTok gets wrong. 🧠🦷💨

This isn’t about chasing trends.

It’s about understanding your anatomy and protecting your long-term health.

📰✨ NEW ARTICLE: The Real Story Behind Dr. John Mew — What Really Happened?

I’m honored to share my latest feature with News 9 Miami, where I take a deeper look into the controversy surrounding Dr. John Mew, Orthotropics, and the global phenomenon now known as “mewing.”

What began as a viral trend is actually rooted in decades of science, airway-focused dentistry, and a father–son legacy committed to helping children breathe, grow, and thrive.

In this article, I explore:

Why Dr. Mew was criticized — and ultimately “canceled.”

How the BioBloc and Orthotropics were designed to grow faces forward, not backward.

Why airway-focused dentistry threatens outdated dogma.

The surprising science behind facial growth, breathing disorders, and long-term health.

Why millions around the world are searching for answers traditional dentistry never addressed.

This story is much bigger than a documentary.
It’s a conversation about innovation, children’s health, and whether our profession supports progress — or punishes it.

If you’ve ever wondered how facial growth, airway development, and whole-body wellness connect… this article is for you.

🧬 Your Bite Affects Your Entire Nervous System

Most people think their teeth are only for chewing — but in reality, your bite plays a powerful role in how your entire body functions.

In SMILE: It’s All Connected, I explain that the way your teeth meet sends constant signals to your brain, muscles, joints, and nervous system. When the bite is misaligned, even slightly, the body must adapt to keep you upright and breathing.

That compensation travels everywhere:

-Into your neck and shoulders
-Down your spine
-Into your posture
-Even into your stress and tension patterns

A misaligned bite can create ripple effects you feel every day without knowing where they started.

And the opposite is also true, when we restore balance to the mouth, the nervous system begins to calm, muscles relax, and the whole body realigns.

Yes… your smile really does impact your spine, your energy, and your sense of well-being.

Because when the mouth finds balance, the body finally gets to rest.

😴✨ Real Relief, Real Transformation — Cecile’s Story Continues: Part #2

When Cecile first came to Health Connections Dentistry®, she didn’t know she was living with undiagnosed sleep apnea and a TMJ disorder. She only knew she was tired, uncomfortable, and searching for answers.

But during her evaluation, something unexpected happened — her home sleep test revealed loud snoring and airway collapse, issues she never realized were affecting her daily life.

With proper diagnostics, collaboration with a physician, and Dr. Stagg’s holistic approach, Cecile finally understood what her body had been trying to tell her for years.

💬 “I love the review — I learned more than we were actually able to talk about at the time,” Cecile shares.

💚 “I love coming here. It’s always an educational experience… and a pleasant one.”

Together, they uncovered how much healing had already taken place — and how quickly it happened once her airway and TMJ were addressed.

This is what whole-body dentistry looks like:
Relief, clarity, and a new understanding of your own health.

😮 Did You Know? Mouth Breathing Can Change a Child’s Face Shape 👶💨

Did you know that when a child mouth-breathes, it can actually reshape their face over time?

According to the principles I teach in SMILE: It’s All Connected, chronic mouth breathing can lead to:

- Narrowed dental arches
- A recessed jaw
- Forward head posture
- Higher risk of sleep-disordered breathing

And it’s NOT “just a habit.”
It’s a sign that the airway needs help.

Healthy breathing builds healthy faces.
Healthy faces build healthy bodies.
