What if the key to your chronic health issues starts with your mouth? In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Michelle Jorgensen reveals the powerful, often-overlooked connection between oral health and full-body wellness. Sharing her personal transformation from conventional dentist to holistic health advocate, Dr. Jorgensen uncovers the hidden dangers of common dental procedures—like mercury fillings, root canals, and untreated airway obstructions—and how they can silently fuel disease.

You’ll learn how nutrition, genetics, and even the position of your wisdom teeth can influence everything from hormonal balance to gut health. From the science of tooth meridians to the surprising role of the oral microbiome, this conversation will completely change the way you think about dental care—and empower you to ask smarter questions at your next appointment.
