What if the real source of your inflammation, fatigue, hormone imbalance, or stubborn health symptoms isn’t your gut, sleep, or stress… but your mouth? This episode pulls back the curtain on the oral–systemic connection—one of the most overlooked drivers of chronic illness and long-term vitality.

Dr. Maya Assi, DMD, a leading biological dentist and Invisalign® provider in Coral Springs, FL, brings an entirely different lens to dental care. As co-founder of Alpha Dental Practice & Implant Center, she integrates state-of-the-art technology with a deep respect for the body’s biology, using minimally toxic materials and whole-body thinking to guide every treatment decision. With years of experience treating complex cases, Dr. Maya specializes in revealing the “hidden stressors” inside the mouth that can influence everything from immunity to metabolism.

In this conversation, Dr. Maya and Dr. Shivani shed light on the profound effects of root canals, mercury fillings, fluoride exposure, orthodontic treatment, wisdom teeth removal, and even everyday habits like tongue posture. You’ll understand why a biologically aligned approach matters, how oral infections can silently drain your immune system, and how airway-focused dentistry can improve sleep, cognition, and emotional regulation.

Key Highlights

• How the mouth acts as a biological command center and why inflammation, metals, and chronic infections in your teeth can influence your entire physiology.
• What biological dentists look at differently, including the immune load created by root canals, dead tissue, and pathogenic bacteria.
• The hidden risks of mercury fillings and how SMART-certified removal protects your brain, gut, and detox pathways during the transition.
• Understanding fluoride’s impact on thyroid function, bone density, and neurodevelopment and what safe, effective remineralizing alternatives actually strengthen enamel.
• Why airway-focused orthodontics and tongue posture can change breathing patterns, sleep quality, facial development, and energy levels.
• How proper nutritional preparation including minerals, protein, and targeted supplements can dramatically improve healing after dental surgery and reduce long-term complications.

Why You Should Watch. This episode reveals safer dental choices, deep-rooted causes of unexplained symptoms, and science-backed strategies to support longevity, resilience, and whole-body healing through a biological dentistry approach.
