How Oral Health Affects Women’s Hormones and Gut Health with Dr. Sharon Dickerson
Made Good
In this eye-opening conversation, I sit down with Dr. Sharon Dickerson, a trauma-informed biological (holistic) dentist, to talk about something we all deal with but rarely connect to our overall health: our mouths. We explore how oral health is deeply connected to the rest of the body — and how emotions, hormones, trauma, and even pregnancy can all play a role in what’s going on with your teeth and gums. Dr. Sharon shares her perspective on: * Why the mouth is a mirror of the body * How past trauma can show up in dental care * The emotional side of TMJ (it’s not just physical!) * Why building trust with your dentist is so important — especially for women * The truth about root canals, fluoride, and mercury fillings * How nutrition and oral health go hand-in-hand * Practical tips you can start using now for a healthier mouth We also talk about what dental insurance doesn’t cover — and why listening to your intuition when making health decisions is more powerful than you think. Whether you’ve struggled with dental anxiety, are curious about more holistic options, or just want to take better care of your teeth — this one’s for you. 🦷💬 🔔 Subscribe for weekly episodes that help you grow in your faith, defend it with truth, and live it out boldly.
