Conventional Dentist Faces Paradigm-Shifting Health Crisis: Summary
Dr. Michelle, an internationally recognized holistic dentist, shares her journey from being a general dentist to becoming a Board-Certified Holistic Health Practitioner after mercury exposure in her practice made her gravely ill. She describes her initial symptoms, including severe brain fog and numbness in her hands, which led her to realize that the traditional practices she had been taught might be harmful. A chance conversation about mercury fillings led her to discover that the procedures she was performing were endangering her health and potentially her patients’ health too. This revelation pushed her to adopt and advocate for ‘Health-Based Dentistry,’ linking oral health to overall wellness.
In her discussion, Dr. Michelle emphasizes the harmful effects of mercury vapor released during dental procedures, revealing that many dentists are unaware of the dangers due to outdated education. She recounts how she began implementing protective measures and advanced techniques like using ozone and PRF stem cell therapy to mitigate the risks. Dr. Michelle highlights her personal transformation and how educating both herself and her patients about safer dental practices has become central to her mission. She points out the significant lag (15-20 years) in medical and dental education, resulting in harmful outdated practices still being used today.
Dr. Michelle shares powerful patient testimonials, illustrating dramatic health turnarounds after addressing dental infections and removing compromised dental work like root canals. She stresses the importance of holistic practices and personalized patient care, encouraging people to understand their unique health needs. Her upcoming book aims to close the knowledge gap by providing actionable insights into maintaining optimal health through better dental care, thus empowering both patients and professionals to foster a more integrative approach to wellness.
