You've heard of leaky gut, but have you ever heard of leaky gums? If not, you're about to. Beyond gum issues, there's much more to oral health than meets the tooth! There's even a correlation between root canals and depression that we cover in this episode.

Biological -also known as holistic or natural- dentistry is based on the principle that oral health is intrinsically linked to our overall physical health and wellness. Biological dentistry is a revolutionary approach that integrates the entire body's health with dental care, extending beyond just the teeth and gums.

Biological dentists prioritize minimally invasive treatments and avoid harsh chemicals while offering healthy alternatives such as low-radiation X-rays, root canal alternatives, patient education, and biocompatible materials. Biological dentists often employ methods like ceramic dental implants and mercury removal techniques.

Our guest, Dr. Dominik Nischwitz, DDS, (aka "Dr. Dome") is a pioneer of Biological Dentistry and one of the 1st Ceramic Implantologists in the world. He is the published author of the bestselling book It's All in Your Mouth. He is a founder of the DNA Health & Aesthetics – Center for Biological Dentistry, and an International speaker and author of numerous specialist publications. He specializes in Holistic Odontology, Ceramic Implants, Nutrition, Holistic Health, Health Optimization and Whole-Patient Solutions.
