The Dentalpreneur Podcast w/ Dr. Mark Costes 2305: Building a Dental Wellness Oasis in the Dominican Republic
On today’s episode, Dr. Mark Costes sits down with Dr. Cristian Pavel—dentist, certified yoga instructor, and wellness advocate—live from Thrive Live in Las Vegas. Dr. Pavel shares his unique journey of integrating breathwork, yoga, and mental wellness into dentistry and how that evolved into biannual service retreats in the Dominican Republic. Listeners will hear the inspiring story of how a life-changing breathwork session sparked the creation of his mission-based retreats, his plans to develop a permanent dental wellness clinic abroad, and how cacao—yes, chocolate—has become part of his daily sacred ritual. You’ll also get a peek into Dr. Pavel’s morning routine, the evolution of his cacao-based wellness brand Sacred Mornings, and his vision for bringing holistic care to underserved communities through both service and stillness.
