My guest is <a href="https://doctorstaci.com/">Dr. Staci Whitman, DMD</a>, a board-certified functional dentist for kids and adults. We discuss the critical importance of oral care and the oral microbiome for brain and bodily health. We examine the negative effects of common oral care product ingredients such as alcohol, astringents, and bleaches. We also explore the history and real impact of fluoridated drinking water on oral, bone, and systemic health.Then we discuss healthy, lesser-known solutions for bad breath, canker sores, cavities, and teeth whitening. We cover how teeth can be made to repair their own cavities and the connection between oral health and cardiovascular health, male and female fertility, dementia, and cancer.This episode goes far beyond the best approaches to brushing and flossing and will be a valuable resource for anyone seeking to improve their oral health and appearance at any age.Read the episode show notes at <a href="https://www.hubermanlab.com/episode/how-to-improve-your-teeth-oral-microbiome-for-brain-body-health-dr-staci-whitman">hubermanlab.com</a>. <h2>Thank you to our sponsors</h2>AG1: <a href="https://drinkag1.com/huberman">https://drinkag1.com/huberman</a>Eight Sleep: <a href="https://eightsleep.com/huberman">https://eightsleep.com/huberman</a>BetterHelp: <a href="https://betterhelp.com/huberman">https://betterhelp.com/huberman</a>Joovv: <a href="https://joovv.com/huberman">https://joovv.com/huberman</a>Function: <a href="https://functionhealth.com/huberman">https://functionhealth.com/huberman</a>LMNT: <a href="https://drinklmnt.com/huberman">https://drinklmnt.com/huberman</a><h2>Timestamps</h2>00:00:00 Dr. Staci Whitman00:02:04 Oral Health & Oral Microbiome00:05:01 Oral Healthcare Ingredients, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS); Canker Sores00:08:45 Sponsors: Eight Sleep & BetterHelp00:11:38 Cavities & Teeth De-/Remineralization, Fluoride00:19:14 Cavities, Tool: Meal Frequency, Fasting00:21:51 Sugar, “Dissolvable” Carbs & Cavities, Tools: Feed the Rainbow, Clean Diet00:27:41 White Teeth, Bleaching, Hydroxyapatite, Mouth Breathing00:34:34 Antibiotics, Gut & Oral Microbiome, Tool: Probiotics00:36:20 Mouthwash, Alcohol, Astringents, Cardiovascular Risk, Bad Breath00:39:54 Sponsors: AG1 & Joovv00:42:21 Saliva, Dry Mouth, Salivary Analysis, Tools: Hydration; Nasal Breathing00:47:23 Mouth vs. Nasal Breathing, Hard & Soft Tissue Issues00:54:19 Deviated Septum, Therapies, Kids & Adults, Mouth Breathing & Sleep Disorders01:00:42 Gum Health, Flossing; Sexual Health01:01:50 Shifting to Nasal Breathing, Mouth Taping, Tools: 3-Minute Test, Kiss The Sky01:05:53 Chewing Gum, Mastic Gum, Tool: Xylitol; Chewing Food, Breastfeeding01:11:28 Sponsor: Function01:13:15 Gum Disease, “Leaky Gums”, Cardiovascular Disease, Dementia, Cancer01:20:05 Antibiotics, Ozone Therapy, Oil Pulling, Mold, Tool: Coconut Oil; Facial Trauma01:28:07 Nicotine Gum & Pouches, Oral Health; Coffee, Teeth Whitening01:34:16 Whole Foods, Hydroxyapatite Toothpaste; Tool: Testing Oral Microbiome01:39:39 Water Fluoridation, History, Other Fluoride Sources, Neurocognitive Issues01:54:57 Drinking Water & Fluoride, Toothpaste, Cavities01:59:51 Sponsor: LMNT02:01:07 Water Fluoridation & Levels02:04:52 Oral Health & Fertility02:07:03 Toothbrushing, Flossing, Waterpik, Tool: Toothbrushing & Meals02:13:23 Teeth Spots & Markings, Fluorosis, Hypoplastic Enamel 02:19:10 Oral Health, Women, Pregnancy, Menopause & Burning Mouth02:23:16 Geographic Tongue; Lip Balm; Mouth Breathing, Symmetrical Chewing02:27:09 Tongue Tie, Chewing & Speech Function, Intervention02:32:27 Red Light Therapy, Peptides & Exosomes02:34:40 Mercury Fillings, Ceramic Composites, Retainers, Sealants 02:39:08 Dentists, Depression, Anxiety, Suicide; Insurance02:45:05 Recap, Top Behavioral Tools for Oral Health, Tongue Scrapping02:52:10 Zero-Cost Support, YouTube, Spotify & Apple Follow & Reviews, YouTube Feedback, Protocols Book, Social Media, Neural Network Newsletter<a href="https://www.hubermanlab.com/disclaimer">Disclaimer & Disclosures</a>
