Healthy Eating for a Healthy Mouth

As a biological dentist, Dr. Keanna is a physician of the mouth; he is committed to providing you with dental care that takes your total health and wellbeing into account. Understanding the link between oral health and general health, Dr. Keanna identifies possible precursors of disease as they manifest in the mouth.

One aspect of your health that may manifest in the mouth and oral structures is your nutrition. As a Certified Traditional Naturopath (CTN) and a Diplomat of Advanced Nutritional Laboratory Analysis (DANLA) by the Clinical Nutrition Certification Board, Dr. Keanna helps you understand how to provide your body with the nutrition it needs for a healthy mouth and body.

While there are general principles of healthy eating that apply to everyone, there may be specific things you need to consider in your diet based on your unique health makeup. For example, if the teeth in your mouth are dissolving and or decaying in a certain manner, you may need to change the pH of your diet to prevent these problems.
