The oral microbiome plays a crucial role in achieving true health and longevity. While science has only recently confirmed what many Ayurvedic practices, Functional Medicine doctors and biological dentists have long known—without a healthy mouth, teeth, and gums, overall body health suffers. Today’s guest is on a mission to revolutionize oral healthcare and educate listeners on how and why oral health can serve as a window into overall health.
Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with functional dentist Dr. Staci Whitman to discuss the top signs that your oral health is in jeopardy, the root causes of common dental diagnoses, and the correlation between poor oral health and chronic disease. Dr. Staci shares her tips for optimal nutrition, eating timelines, and strategies to prevent oral dysbiosis and cavities. She also covers the top supplements for oral health and factors to consider when dealing with root canals. Additionally, Dr. Staci breaks down the research behind fluoride and explains why it’s considered so controversial.
Dr. Staci Whitman is a leading authority in functional dentistry. With a unique blend of scientific expertise and compassionate care, she's dedicated to creating a cavity-free world. Dr Staci is a triple board-certified in pediatrics, integrative dentistry, and naturopathic dentistry and is one of only five dentists in the world to have her Functional Medicine Certification from the Institute of Functional Medicine. She founded one of the country's leading Functional Pediatric Dental offices, where she takes a whole-body and holistic approach to her care. She co-founded the Institute of Functional Dentistry, launching in 2025, and lectures globally on Functional Dentistry and the Oral Systemic Connection.
