Wait, what?
We’ve all heard the term “fake news” and we can all agree the internet is full of misinformation. But even with that in mind, it doesn’t stop people from searching for answers to questions about their health and wellness online. I think back to that heart sinking moment when scrolling Pinterest, I saw an article stating you could heal tooth decay with coconut oil. Attached, was a picture of a horribly decayed tooth that they unknowingly believed to be healthy. I knew it wouldn’t be long before we started hearing and seeing the unfortunate results associated with this type of misinformation.
Let’s Think This Through
Now, we hear all too often “I’ve been taking care of this myself at home.” When pursued for more information, they share the home remedy that they found online. As expected, they are almost always sick with an infection and their options become few and quite costly both to their health and pocketbook. If you or someone in your care has a dental or medical issue of any kind, please reach out to a provider you can trust. A provider that understands your body is uniquely created and can provide treatment for you as a person and not just treat the illness. Origin Dental Wellness is home to both Oklahoma’s premier biological dentist and hygienist. They are highly educated and trained with over 40 years of combined experience.
For Your Better Health
If you have concerns or need to know what you can be doing at home, give our office a call and actually SPEAK to someone that understands the functionality of the body. Communicate with a known professional that understands your health history or can listen to your story and advise the best option for your body instead of typing your questions in a search bar. Don’t make the mistake of comparing your internet search to your trusted practitioners degree and many years of experience. Be well and stay well friends.
