Heart disease is a leading cause of death in the United States.

Despite its prevalence, we often overlook the warning signs, assuming they're limited to factors like diet, exercise, and genetics. However, there's a lesser-known indicator that deserves your attention: the condition of your mouth.

Consider this scenario: You're at the dentist, undergoing a routine teeth cleaning. As the hygienist scrapes away plaque and tartar, you might think it's merely a cosmetic procedure. But what if I told you it holds deeper implications for your health, particularly your heart?

Your mouth is dirty.  

Filthy really.  Some “dirt” is healthy (and needed), but most is harmful to your health.  Most toxins enter your body through your gum tissue. 

Bleeding gums are a direct portal of entry into your bloodstream and your heart.  Inflamed gums become “leaky” and allow toxins, including bacteria and heavy metals to enter your bloodstream which is why there is a direct correlation between oral health and heart disease. 

Today, we are going to dive into the reasons you may need a dental detox and how you can get rid of bad breath, cavities, and gum disease for good!

Bleeding gums after brushing or flossing, mouth pain, bad breath, seeing the roots of your teeth, and loose teeth…

Sound familiar? If so, chances are you have gum recession. So, you run to your dentist and ask if there is anything they can do to help you…and most likely they say “Unfortunately no. Just don’t brush so hard.”

NOOOOO…don’t believe those lies! Unfortunately, the dental industry is stuck in an outdated paradigm. One that doesn’t understand that YES - you can heal a cavity AND fix gum recession.

If you don’t stop the process that causes gum recession, it will just continue to get worse. You will end up with damage to the enamel and the root - degeneration of your bone - inflammation and abscesses.

Your mouth is a dirty place.  It is exposed to a crap-load of toxins every day. Even if you are brushing regularly, everything from the air you breathe to the food you eat, introduces new toxins to your mouth.

I call this "re-tox". The re-toxifying of your mouth everyday - simply just from everyday living!

And since you re-tox daily, you need to DETOX twice daily.

I know- you're busy and can't add "one more thing to your busy schedule"... don't worry!  This one is easy.  It's creating a quick but thorough detoxifying routine that’s easy to do - and just twice a day!

Yikes - your gums are sore and bleeding. It’s not a pretty sight. What is causing your gums to bleed and what can you do about it?

Left untreated, gingivitis progresses into the more severe form of gum disease called periodontitis. More than 64 million American adults have periodontitis - suffering from loose teeth, tooth loss, and jawbone degeneration. So, the GOOD NEWS is - your bleeding gums are a sign that something is not right in your mouth - and you can change that by addressing the issue starting today!
