This is episode 43. We’re chatting with Dr. Bernice Teplitsky - the leading holistic dentist at Wrigleyville dental in Chicago. Dr T's educational background began with a bachelor’s in biomedical science and certificate in gerontology from Marquette University. She graduated from Marquette’s school of dentistry and then completed a general practice residency at Advocate Illinois Masonic where she worked all over the medical center including the emergency and operating rooms which gave her great surgical experience. 

Soon she discovered holistic dentistry and began visiting dental colleagues all over the country to learn how they practice it. Dr. T said “I saw how they were able to cure patients with chronic diseases by using nutrition, biocompatible dental materials, and removing toxins from the mouth. I was hooked.”

In this episode you'll learn the difference between general and holistic dentistry. You'll also learn what foods to avoid to prevent cavities, when to get a second dental opinion, when to worry about silver/mercury/amalgam cavity fillings, why you might consider oil pulling daily, and that there's a real link between root canals and chronic disease like cancer and mood disorders. PS: Did you know our teeth are ALIVE. What does that really mean? Why should we care? Take a listen to find out!!

Consider a holistic or biological dentist if you have other underlying health issues because they might be related to the conditions in your orgal health or dental history.

We can't wait for our round two interview with Dr T because there's so much more to uncover in the holistic dentistry world. We could have talked for hours! We hope this episode entices you to check out holistic dentistry in your area. A healthy mouth is the gateway to health, wellness and longevity.
