Dr. Lane Freeman joined us today for a wonderful show. This was another show that was 100% commercial free! We want to thank our Patrons and supporters who have visited this link for helping make the show commercial free. You know who you are and we love you! :) Dr. Freeman is from Healthy Smiles For Life in Marble Falls Texas which we have been to twice now to get mercury fillings removed along with 3 root canals. We also had infected cavitations (where my wisdom teeth were extracted incorrectly) cleaned up and had a wonderful experience. We are not affiliated with them in any way we just want to share with you our personal experience and want to say we HIGHLY recommend their practice. We discussed in this show why mercury (people call them silver or amalgam) filings can be so toxic and harmful for our health. We talked about all the preventative protocols for making sure mercury fillings are extracted properly. We talked about bio identical substances to make sure your body doesn't have an immune system reaction to materials used instead. We also discussed how to prevent cavities naturally, and why root canals can be such an immense burden on the immune system. It was interesting talking about the experiments Weston A. Price did with rabbits and root canal teeth. You'll want to hear what happened with that! We hope you enjoy this show. If you are having any health conditions whatsoever we highly recommend one of the first places you look is your teeth. Personally I believe that there are 3 main "causes" to our health challenges. Two of them are physical and the third is more spiritual or emotional. They are colon health, oral health and past traumas (spiritual emotional health).

It has become far too common for dentists to reach the point of burnout, and it’s important for us to understand not only what causes it, but also how to combat this unsettling trend. Today we have returning special guest Dr. Barry Polansky on the show to share how dentists—and health care practitioners in general—can maintain a healthy mindset and stay motivated. The owner of a practice in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, and the co-owner of Niche Dental Studio, Barry has been in private practice for over four decades. He has written nearly 100 articles for most of the dental journals and lectured throughout the world for the Texas Dental Association, the American Dental Association Annual Meeting, and more. He is also the author of four books, including his latest, The Complete Dentist: Positive Leadership and Communication Skills for Success. In this episode, Barry shares insights from all his books, as well as the important lessons he’s learned through recently receiving a certification in positive psychology. Listen in to hear why too many dentists have lost their passion and what you can do to ensure this doesn't happen to you.
