Denver moms: Did you know that your oral health plays a critical role in your overall well-being? From heart health and hormone balance to fertility and disease prevention, what happens in your mouth impacts your entire body.
Centennial Holistic Dentist
Centennial-based holistic dentist and author Dr. Katie Lee has made it her life’s work to spread awareness of the link between oral health and full-body wellness at her natural dentistry practice. The connections are truly staggering:
- There are more than 700 bacteria found in the mouth and 11 specific strains that can lead to infertility, gut issues, heart disease, diabetes, cancer and Alzheimer’s.
- The microbiome plays a major role in a person’s immune defense system, metabolism and even mental health. The two largest microbiomes are the mouth and gut, which is why inflammation and disease in the mouth have such a big impact on the entire body.
- An oral infection of Fn or Pg can cause infertility or difficult conception and negatively affect pregnancy outcomes.
- An infection with Pg and Fn can decrease sperm count, affect their motility, and cause impotence.
Just to name a few.
Do you know what’s lurking in your mouth? Without a saliva test, the answer is no.
One tool that holistic Centennial-based dentist Dr. Lee is truly passionate about is saliva testing. It provides valuable insights into the balance of bacteria in your mouth, inflammation levels, and your risks for systemic diseases. It’s a non-invasive way for people to help take control of their long-term health. If you’re interested in taking this simple, proactive step toward wellness, enter the contest below to win the test and evaluation for free!
In her tireless efforts to increase access to comprehensive care and improve patient outcomes, Dr. Lee recently opened a fully-integrated dental and medical center in Centennial called The Collective Health Society. The functional medicine practice is revolutionizing how we think about oral healthcare, focusing on women’s health and biologic dentistry while also including a functional primary care doctor in order to treat patients holistically.
There are membership plans with access to an integrated team of specialists, advanced diagnostics and savings on preventive care and treatment plans to help patients truly achieve optimal wellness. You can learn more about this innovative approach at www.collectivehealthsociety.com or by calling (303) 223-2343 to book an appointment.
