The best dentistry is no dentistry. I’m not saying we should avoid the dentist — I’m saying the ultimate goal is to keep your teeth and gums so healthy that you don’t need me to fix anything.

Every filling, crown, implant, or root canal — no matter how perfectly done — is still a substitute for nature’s original design. The real win is preventing the need for those procedures in the first place by protecting enamel, keeping your oral microbiome balanced, breathing through your nose, and eating in a way that supports your mouth’s natural defenses, including saliva!

See your Oral Hygienist every 6 months to ensure gumhealth🦷🦷 and overall systemic health. Prevention is our game!

🌸🌸To the often unseen everyday heroes in life! Happy Woman's Day! 🌸🌸

04/08/2025

🚨🚨🚨 So important, this can save your life!! 🚨🚨🚨

My patient came in for a routine cleaning. Mid-40s. Healthy on paper. Bleeding gums.

Six months later, she had a heart attack.

What if bleeding gums aren’t just a mouth problem?What if they’re the first visible sign of cardiovascular disease?

We now know they often are.

The same bacteria that cause gum disease have been found in arterial plaque

Gum inflammation drives up CRP—a marker of systemic inflammation and heart risk

Bleeding gums can raise your CRP score more than a poor diet or lack of exercise

That’s why I wrote a letter to every physician I work with. To connect the dots. To make sure we’re not treating the mouth in isolation.

If you want the letter, comment “HEART” and I’ll send it to you.

It comes with blank spaces so you can fill in your name and start using it with your doctors or with your own patients. Thousands of cardiologists and functional dentists around the world already have.

If your gums bleed when you floss, don’t ignore it. Ask your dentist what it might be saying about your heart.
