Food can either work with your body, fuel it perfectly and even help it to repair, heal and grow strong or it can be damaging, making us tired or overactive, adding to inflammation, toxins and ultimately disease in our body.

Every time you eat and drink you are either feeding disease or fighting it.

Consider that – every time you eat or drink something it is healing you or harming you. Wow, that is a powerful and thought-provoking statement. It’s food for thought.

Rates of illness and disease are increasing, there is not a day that goes by at my holistic dental practice in Brisbane that we do not see someone with diabetes, cancer, allergies, heart disease and a whole host of other conditions, many of which would be considered diseases of lifestyle.

As a holistic dentist I’m always being asked what I think about fluoride in the water, what type of water should I drink, can I have bottled water and so on. In my opinion, the best water to drink would be non-fluoridated water that contains minerals like a good quality mineral water from Europe (Australian mineral water has the minerals removed so don’t be mislead by the names on the labels!).

But what really surprises me is, nobody seems to know how much water they should drink or why it is so important.

Wow, are you as confused as I am when it comes to food? Why are there so many different diets and eating fads around? Why are we obsessed with weight loss and not focused on nutrition? Are the health messages actually working or have we got an epidemic on our hands?

Despite the low-fat diet and heart-healthy food messages obesity, diabetes, heart disease and cancers are rising. We have been pushed into a way of eating that has too much sweet sugar and not enough fat.

Dr Rachel Hall Brisbane Holistic Dentist discusses sugar vs fat consumption and the impact on our health and wellness

Receding gums are a symptom of gum disease and needs to be treated to prevent it from getting worse. If you have receding gums how can you support yourself with natural approaches to prevent and cure the issue?

Prevention is the best way to fight receding gums and periodontal disease.

Left untreated, gum disease can cause receding gums, systemic infections and loss of teeth.

Oral bacteria are associated with endocarditis, cardiovascular disease and certain cancers.

The eyes may be the window to your soul, but your teeth and gums say a mouthful about your physical health. Because of this there at health problems your dentist can spot.

In holistic dentistry when we say, “Open wide.” we are examining your mouth for clues to your health as well as for signs of dental disease.

Many people are reluctant to visit a dentist. But having a regular checkup could be a lifesaver.

Because dentists have had medical training, we can detect early signs of major illnesses, often before you, the patient feels unwell.

Your mouth is the window to the inside of your body. If there is something going wrong with your teeth or gums this is a sign that something is out of balance.

Dentistry should be and can be a way in which we help you prevent major health issues in life and yet we have become too fixated with fixing cavities and making white smiles.

Dr Rachel Hall discusses what your teeth are telling you and what that means for your health as well as how you and your dentist can work together as part of your healthcare team.

Tooth decay and gum disease may happen in the mouth but they are an early warning signal that something is wrong with your health. If you have dental disease, other body factors are out of balance, and we should take this very seriously.

Brisbane Holistic Dentist Dr Rachel Hall urges the public and the dental profession to understand the links between oral health and your wellbeing to help prevent ill health and premature deaths.
