Hi Listeners!
Most people think of oral health as simply preventing cavities, but your mouth may be one of the first places to reveal what's happening throughout the rest of your body. In this episode, Sara sits down with registered dental hygienist Tiffany Pickinkhe Ortega to explore the fascinating connection between oral health and whole-body wellness. Together they discuss why bleeding gums aren't normal, how oral bacteria influence inflammation, and why your dental team may be an important part of your healthcare team.
You'll also learn about the powerful relationship between gum disease and blood sugar regulation, how hormone changes during pregnancy, perimenopause, and menopause affect oral health, and why chronic stress can impact your teeth and gums. Tiffany shares practical strategies for improving oral health, reducing inflammation, and supporting long-term wellness through simple daily habits. Whether you're focused on gut health, hormones, metabolism, or overall wellness, this episode will change the way you think about your smile.
