On today's episode, Dr. Mark Costes reconnects with longtime friend and guest Dr. Michelle Jorgensen—holistic health expert, author, and founder of Living Well with Dr. Michelle. Michelle shares her powerful journey from traditional dentistry to health-based care after a near-career-ending health crisis caused by mercury toxicity.

She opens up about her transformation, the science-backed risks of common dental practices like amalgam removal and fluoride exposure, and how she now leads a thriving, purpose-driven practice that attracts patients and dental teams from around the world. Dr. Jorgensen also unpacks the root causes of burnout, infertility, and mental health struggles in dentistry—and why dentists should see themselves as true healthcare providers. If you're ready to challenge long-held beliefs and make dentistry more fulfilling and impactful, this episode is a must-listen.
