Little did I know that your mouth can be the gateway to several health problems that extend beyond a toothache or cavity.

It might sound like a horror movie but the fact is, if you have certain species of pathogenic oral bacteria in your gums, they could be slowly making their way into your brain as you read this. These bacteria among 100s of others responsible for oral health issues, including tooth decay, cavities and periodontal disease (or gum disease).

Dr. Steven Lin sits down with host of The Neuro Experience podcast, Louisa Nicola today to talk about functional dentistry. Louisa and Dr. Lin discuss the history of the development of our jaws, vitamin D deficiency, the ecosystem in our mouths, dangers of mouth breathing, what bleeding gums really mean, and many other fascinating topics.
