In this insightful episode, Ginny Yurich welcomes Dr. Staci Whitman, a functional pediatric dentist, who shares her transformative journey from traditional dentistry to a holistic approach that connects oral health to overall well-being. Dr. Whitman explains how modern dental care often misses the bigger picture, focusing on quick fixes rather than addressing root causes. She reveals the link between diet, nutrition, and oral hygiene, while challenging misconceptions about fluoride and highlighting the importance of whole-body health for both children and adults. With practical advice on improving oral care routines and the role of functional dentistry, this episode equips parents with essential knowledge to support their children's health beyond just preventing cavities. ** Learn more about Dr. Staci here Order from Feed Your Good Guys here .
