What type of dentistry does your dentist practice? If your answer is "um... tooth dentistry?", you need to listen to this episode. The old 'drill 'em and and bill 'em' paradigm is dead. Since so much of your general physical health starts in your mouth, it's crucial that you find a dentist who uses a holistic approach, and that you educate yourself on the latest developments in the industry. Outdated dentistry can be catastrophic to your health, and a bad dentist isn't going to warn you of that fact. He or she is just going to start drilling... and filling.  

But choosing a dentist is not like finding a great auto mechanic. Unlike your vehicle of choice, your teeth are alive. They're not bones or pieces of rock stuck in your jaw. They're an organ and should be treated as such. A qualified biological dentist understands this, and treats your teeth and mouth as a part of your body’s whole energetic system.

While many of the dangers of outdated dental practices have become more widely known, the vast majority of dentists in the world are still using archaic, and in many cases dangerous methods of treatment.

From mercury-laden fillings to infection-causing root canals, fluoride poisoning, and a host of other harmful procedures, we are just now beginning to emerge from the Flintstonian era of 'mouth medicine,' and enter into a new era of oral care.

Our guest Dr. David Villarreal is one of the world's leading biological dentists and has a vast body of knowledge to share on the subject. Do your mouth a favor, and take some time to dive into this fact-rich interview with a real innovator.

If you know someone with teeth they care about, please share this show with them.
