In this episode we speak with Dr. Derek Gatta about the importance of our oral biome and how to take care of it.

Dr. Gatta is a dentist and the co-founder of RiseWell, an all-natural, science-backed oral care brand that is revolutionizing the industry with its dentist-formulated, non-toxic products. Derek is dedicated to promoting a healthy lifestyle and believes that optimal oral health is vital to achieving this. Together with his sister, Kori Estrada, and John Estrada, Derek embarked on a mission to help them create safe and effective alternatives to traditional oral care products after realizing that most products on the market were toxic. As the head of the scientific council for RiseWell, Derek leads the brand in searching for the healthiest, cleanest ingredients, like Hydroxyapatite, and raising industry standards for quality and purity. Formerly in the Navy, where he studied dentistry while on active-duty scholarship, Derek attended Vanderbilt University and Nova Southeastern University for dental school, with a residency in Prosthodontics. He is passionate about educating people on how to achieve optimal oral health and currently runs a busy practice in Boca Raton.
