In this episode of Straight Up With Steph, Dr. Mark Burhenne, famously known as “Ask the Dentist,” and I are diving deeper into the hot topic debate of fluoride vs. nano-hydroxyapatite.

With the rising controversy over the use of fluoride, Dr. Burhenne shares his insights on the systemic issues with fluoride, its potential toxicity concerns, and why nano-hydroxyapatite is undoubtedly the better choice for oral health. We explore what it means to be a functional dentist and how this holistic approach can change the landscape of dental care, focusing on prevention and the oral microbiome's role in maintaining oral and systemic health.

This episode is not just about dental mechanics; it's about shifting perspectives and embracing a preventative approach to health care. Whether you're a dental professional or someone interested in holistic health, Dr. B provides invaluable insights into why nano-hydroxyapatite is making waves in the dentistry world and how it stands up to traditional fluoride treatments. He also shares valuable resources for you to continue your research and make the best decision for yourself and your patients.
