Unlock The Secret: How Your Hormones Influence Your Oral Health
Today on the Holistic Dentistry Show, Dr. Sanda speaks to Dr. Lorraine Maita about how hormones affect your oral health, Sjögren's disease, and autoimmunity.
Lorraine, AKA the Hormone Harmonizer, began working in a NYC emergency room, but
after an eye-opening transition into perimenopause, she started her business, The Feel Good Again Institute. Lorraine debunks common fears around hormone replacement therapy. It’s all about knowing your risk factors! Menopause significantly affects oral health as the oral microbiome changes and bioidentical hormones can help. She generously shares her experience when her teeth turned black after taking too many antibiotics and how we fixed the issue with Orasana probiotics. Lorrain then walks us through the most common times of life when women develop autoimmune disorders, all based on when hormones fluctuate. Be sure to check out Lorraine’s courses, like the Anti-Aging Solution, through her Feel Good Again Institute!

Updates in Dental Radiation Procedures!
Today on the Holistic Dentistry Show, Dr. Sanda reviews the American Dental Association’s (ADA) updated dental radiography safety recommendation, specifically advocating against led aprons.
Modern digital X-rays and precise beam targeting are essential when taking dental X-rays. Dr. Sanda reviews the ADA’s paper outlining their new safety recommendations, Optimizing radiation safety in dentistry, to show that ionizing radiation from dental X-rays is a carcinogen. Children and younger adults are more susceptible to the effects of radiation because their cells are growing and their organs are more sensitive to radiation. Dr. Sanda recommends antioxidants to combat oxidative stress from dental imaging. Practicing safe radiation exposure is vital for your health!
