Biological dentistry and the surprising impact of oral care on your health with Dr. Dominik Nischwitz

In this episode, Ben is joined by Dr. Dominik Nischwitz - a dentist and naturopath from Germany, who is a pioneer and leader in the field of biological dentistry and ceramic implants. Dr. Dome - as he is also known - is on a mission to educate and start the conversation on how your oral health impacts your entire body and overall wellbeing.

This conversation is filled with incredible information on why teeth are considered organs, what cavities are and how to avoid getting them, implantology with bio-identical materials vs. metals, the process of mercury removal and toxicity, how your mouth microbiome affects your gut microbiome and so much more.

Dr. Dominik Nischwitz is the President of the International Society of Metal-free Implantology (ISMI) and lectures word-wide on his holistic approach of odontology. Alongside his father, he runs the Centre for Biological Dentistry and Implantology in Tuebingen, Germany.
