Should you Drink Lemon Water? How Dangerous are Mercury Fillings? And What Can Your Teeth Tell You About the Health of Your Body with Dr Kelly Blodgett

1 hour 20 minutes

Angela talks with world-renowned expert on biological and holistic dentistry, Dr Kelly Blodgett about why you cannot divorce your teeth from the rest of your body and how oral health impacts on the whole body.

They discuss the impact of processed convenience foods and what really happens to mercury fillings in the mouth along with what causes colouration in teeth.

With all teeth originating from the same tissue that forms the central nervous system issues with oral health have far-reaching consequences for the rest of the body so getting the right balance with good dental health is vital to all of your body.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Biological and holistic dentistry is about systems versus symptoms
People often observe major shifts in their health after dental procedures
The culture of a family can affect dental health and it’s not just how you are eating but how often you are eating.
There is no known safe level of mercury and mercury fillings produce mercury vapour.
Lemon water is a strong acid and can’t be in your mouth for any amount of time without causing issues with your teeth.
Compress drinking into a small amount of time to aid oral health
Modern convenience foods are all pre-macerated
Our access to processed foods is phenomenal with foods already in a bottle or a bag, pre-chewed and full of acid, sugar and preservative.
Teeth colouration is influenced by surface-based staining and the colour of the dentin underneath.
Darker colouration in teeth dentin is usually down to diet and biochemistry in your early years growing up.
All teeth are formed from the same tissue as the central nervous system.
When you remove a tooth there is a change to the energetic flow through the energy meridians of the body.
Red light therapy is an effective way to support recovery after dental surgery so that no narcotics or anti-inflammatory prescriptions are required.
On a daily basis, you should find time to be reflective – when you are able to be in a parasympathetic state your teeth are able to detox themselves.
Getting a balance in energy is critical to your dental health.
