Holistic Nutrition
introducing our new in-office Nutritionist, Lori
here's why we care about our overall wellness
Healthy teeth start from within; your oral health is connected to more than brushing and flossing. Nutrition, inflammation, stress, hydration, and overall wellness all influence the health of your teeth and gums.
Holistic nutrition focuses on supporting the body as a whole because what affects your body also affects your smile.
Mouth-Body Connection
Common dental concerns like: cavities, gum inflammation, dry mouth, teeth grinding and slow healing may be linked to diet, stress, immune health, and nutritional deficiencies.
What you eat can either support healing or contribute to inflammation and bacterial imbalance.
Hello everyone. You all know me as your hygienist and now I’m the new nutritionist working within the office, and my focus is on connecting everyday nutrition with oral health in a practical, supportive way.
A lot of what affects your teeth and gums is influenced by what we eat and drink things like meal patterns, sugar intake, acidity, hydration, amongst other daily habits. My goal is to help bridge that gap between holistic nutrition and dental care, so we can support not just your overall wellbeing, but also your oral health in a way that feels realistic and sustainable.
This isn’t about strict rules or cutting everything out, it’s more about understanding your current habits and finding small, meaningful adjustments that can reduce decay risk, support gum health, and work alongside your dental care plan. Everyone’s situation is different, so we’ll take it step by step based on what fits your lifestyle.
If you’re open to it, we can start by looking at your typical daily eating and drinking habits, any dental concerns you’ve been told about, and what you’d like to improve. From there, we can build something that supports both your smile and your overall health.
I’m really looking forward to working with you and I’m excited to help you build something that supports both your smile and your overall health.
