Episode Details

Open wide everybody – today’s episode takes us back into the mighty mouth for a special exploration of all things oral health with my own personal dentists and world class experts in the field, Drs. Stuart M. Nunnelly and Candice Owens.

We’re reminded of the stark truths about fluoride and modern dentistry before learning all about parasites, deleterious dead teeth, and the many serious risks presented by root canal procedures, the long list of which being the main reason why Drs. Nunnelly and Owens do not currently offer the otherwise widely accepted treatment at their practice here in Texas.

But it’s not all gloom, doom, and decay in this one. Their holistic approach to dentistry, steeped in the wisdom of two research legends which we give a nod to, is one we can all root for. What’s more, we hear a little bit about how and why the psychospiritual realm is so important in this space.

In layman's terms, going to the dentist shouldn’t be a nightmare. With these two, and others on the right side of the science, it isn’t. Enjoy.
