Oral Microbiome Test to Cure Gum Disease - Dr Victoria Sampson - MBC#55

Ever considered how your oral health might be indicative of something much bigger? Serious conditions such as heart disease, auto-immune disorders, and even Alzheimer's Dementia may have deeper roots than traditionally recognized - roots that might lie in your oral health.

Functional dentistry delves into these connections, probing the root causes of oral diseases. It's not just about your teeth; it's about the community of bacteria dwelling in your mouth, known as the oral microbiome. Over the decades, a wealth of evidence has identified imbalances in this bacterial landscape as a potential risk factor for severe, life-altering diseases.

Wouldn't it be empowering if a simple microbiome test could unveil these risks? Along the frontier of health technology, renowned microbiome labs are making this a reality. Conducting gut microbiome testing - an intimate look at the state of your bacterial environment - has become an accessible, powerful diagnostic tool within a functional healthcare setting.

Demonstrating this value is Dr. Victoria Samson, a devoted functional dentist based in London. She harnesses the power of these tests to understand your health risks better and provide personalized, proactive care.

What's more, all this might let you address one of the most common oral diseases - gum disease - without solely relying on a dentist. Self-care practices, guided by accurate microbiome testing, can be a transformative approach to improving both your oral health and systemic well-being.

This innovative perspective underscores the importance of understanding our microbiomes and their profound impacts on our health.
