At the dawn of the social media era, Belle Gibson became a pioneering wellness influencer - telling the world how she beat cancer with an alternative diet. Her bestselling cookbook and online app provided her success, respect, and a connection to the cancer-battling influencer she admired the most. But a curious journalist with a sick wife began asking questions that even those closest to Belle began to wonder. Was the online star faking her cancer and fooling the world? Kaitlyn Dever stars in the Netflix hit series Apple Cider Vinegar . Inspired by true events, the dramatized story follows Belle’s journey from self-styled wellness thought leader to disgraced con artist. It also explores themes of hope and acceptance - and how far we’ll go to maintain it. In this episode of You Can't Make This Up, host Rebecca Lavoie interviews executive producer Samantha Strauss. SPOILER ALERT! If you haven't watched Apple Cider Vinegar yet, make sure to add it to your watch-list before listening on. Listen to more from Netflix Podcasts .…

[embed]https://youtu.be/QmNQ2Z9UHN4?si=jHbn_w2Fo6YcztHx[/embed] Welcome to a groundbreaking episode of *The Wonder Tooth Podcast*! Today, Dr. Radwa Saad shares the incredible technology that allows us to repair and transform smiles in just a single day. Imagine walking into our dental office with a chipped or broken tooth and walking out a few hours later with a stunning, fully restored smile! This isn’t futuristic dentistry—it’s happening now, thanks to cutting-edge CADCAM technology at Dent Blanche Dental. How We Achieve Same-Day Smile Makeovers The process starts with a comprehensive scan of your teeth, eliminating the need for messy impressions. Our CADCAM (Computer-Aided Design and Computer-Aided Manufacturing) technology captures a precise digital model of your teeth, allowing us to plan and design your restoration right on the screen in real time. This includes full porcelain crowns, veneers, and bridges that match the unique shape and shade of your natural teeth. Once your design is perfected, we use an in-office milling unit to craft your restoration from high-quality porcelain materials. In about an hour, we can produce a beautiful crown, veneer, or bridge that’s as strong and natural-looking as anything created in a traditional lab. Step-by-Step Process of a Same-Day Restoration 1. Initial Consultation & Digital Scanning Dr. Saad will first discuss your needs, whether it’s repairing a broken tooth, covering up a discolored area, or filling in a gap. We then use our 3D scanner to take a precise digital image of your teeth, which appears instantly on our design software. This scan is painless, fast, and allows for a highly accurate digital representation of your tooth structure. 2. Custom Design Using the CAD software, Dr. Saad can immediately begin designing your restoration right on the screen. Adjustments are made to ensure that the restoration matches your bite, contour, and smile aesthetics. You can even see how the final look will appear and make any adjustments with Dr. Saad’s guidance to achieve the perfect shape and shade. 3. Milling & Crafting the Restoration Once the design is finalized, our in-office milling machine takes over. Made with high-strength, durable ceramic or porcelain, the crown, veneer, or bridge is crafted within an hour or so. This milling process is incredibly precise, down to the finest detail, ensuring that your restoration will fit comfortably and blend seamlessly with your other teeth. 4. Fitting & Final Adjustments Dr. Saad then carefully fits your new restoration onto your tooth, making minor adjustments to ensure a perfect fit. The restoration is bonded securely in place, restoring both the appearance and function of your smile. You’ll be able to leave our office with a brand-new smile, all in just one day! Benefits of Same-Day Dentistry with CADCAM Technology This same-day service offers tremendous benefits: - Convenience : No need to book multiple appointments; your restoration is designed, crafted, and placed in one visit. - Precision Fit : With digital design, we can achieve the perfect fit for your tooth, ensuring optimal comfort and durability. - Natural Aesthetics : Using high-quality porcelain, your new crown, veneer, or bridge looks and feels completely natural. - Durability : Same-day restorations are crafted from strong materials, offering lasting strength and functionality. - Immediate Results : Perfect for emergencies like a broken or chipped tooth, you don’t have to live with a damaged smile for weeks while waiting for a traditional lab-created crown.

This technology has revolutionized the patient experience, making it easier, faster, and more comfortable to achieve the smile you’ve always wanted.

[embed]https://youtu.be/KsByPQJ1tb8?si=4iERWI7zkGuaZ1sC[/embed] Did You Know? Ignoring Your Gum Health Can Impact More Than Just Your Mouth! In this eye-opening episode of The Wonder Tooth Podcast , Dr. Radwa Saad dives deep into a topic that often flies under the radar— gum health . Many people focus on keeping their teeth white and shiny but often overlook their gums. Yet, the health of your gums is absolutely critical, not just for your mouth, but for your overall well-being! Surprising Statistics You Won't Believe: Did you know that 47.2% of adults aged 30 and over suffer from some form of gum disease? That's nearly 1 in 2 adults in the U.S.! Gum disease is the leading cause of tooth loss, yet it remains largely preventable with proper care. Recent studies show that people with gum disease are 70% more likely to suffer from heart disease! Shockingly, gum disease has also been linked to conditions like diabetes , Alzheimer's , and even certain cancers . gum disease can be reversed —but only in its early stage, known as gingivitis . When treated promptly, gingivitis can be fully reversed with proper oral hygiene and professional care. However, if gum disease progresses to periodontitis , the damage is typically irreversible, although its progression can be managed and slowed down. There is a growing body of research showing significant links between gum disease (particularly **periodontitis**, the advanced form of gum disease) and various systemic health conditions, including heart disease, diabetes, preterm birth, Alzheimer’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and certain cancers. Here are some surprising statistics that highlight these connections: 1. Gum Disease and Heart Disease - Increased Risk: People with gum disease are **2 to 3 times more likely** to develop heart disease, according to studies. 2. Gum Disease and Diabetes - Bidirectional Relationship: People with diabetes are **2 to 3 times more likely** to develop gum disease, and gum disease can make it harder to control blood sugar levels. Individuals with severe periodontitis have a higher risk of worsening their glycemic control. The chronic inflammation associated with periodontitis exacerbates insulin resistance, making blood sugar management more difficult for people with diabetes. 3. Gum Disease and Preterm Birth - Preterm Birth Risk: Pregnant women with gum disease have a **7 times higher risk** of giving birth prematurely or having low-birth-weight babies. - Inflammation in Pregnancy: The presence of inflammatory markers from gum disease is believed to induce preterm labor by increasing levels of **prostaglandin** and **tumor necrosis factor (TNF)**, both of which can trigger labor. 4. Gum Disease and Alzheimer’s Disease Individuals with chronic periodontitis have a **70% higher risk** of developing Alzheimer’s disease compared to those with healthy gums. A bacteria commonly involved in gum disease (Porphyromonas gingivalis) has been found in the brains of patients with Alzheimer’s, suggesting it may play a role in the progression of neurodegenerative diseases. 5. Gum Disease and Rheumatoid Arthritis People with gum disease are 2 times more likely to develop rheumatoid arthritis. Both conditions involve chronic inflammation. The same bacteria involved in gum disease can trigger an immune response that attacks joints in people with rheumatoid arthritis. Treating gum disease has been shown to reduce the severity of rheumatoid arthritis symptoms by reducing systemic inflammation. 6. Gum Disease and Certain Cancers Research indicates that severe gum disease can increase the risk of developing certain cancers, including: - Pancreatic cancer: A 54% increased risk for people with periodontitis. - Oral cancer: Gum disease raises the risk of developing oral cancers by as much as 50%. - Breast cancer: Women with gum disease may have a 14% higher risk of developing breast cancer. - Lung cancer: Periodontal disease has been linked to a 30% increase in the risk of lung cancer, likely due to the spread of bacteria from the mouth to the lungs. Summary of Key Statistics: - Heart disease: 2 to 3 times more likely with gum disease. - Diabetes: 2 to 3 times more likely with gum disease, and a 6 times higher risk of poor glycemic control with severe periodontitis. - Preterm birth: 7 times higher risk in pregnant women with gum disease. - Alzheimer’s: 70% higher risk with chronic periodontitis. - Rheumatoid arthritis: 2 times more likely with gum disease. - Cancers: 54% higher risk for pancreatic cancer, 50% higher risk for oral cancer, and 30% higher risk for lung cancer. These statistics emphasize the critical connection between oral health and overall health, making it essential to prevent and treat gum disease to lower the risks of these serious conditions.

[embed]https://youtu.be/ONpn0m0CmJ0[/embed] Welcome back to *The Wonder Tooth* Podcast, your go-to source for expert dental advice, where we bust common oral health myths and dive deep into the facts! In this episode, Dr. Radwa Saad, a top cosmetic dentist and dental technology expert, tackles a question we’ve all asked ourselves: When should you really change your toothbrush? The answer might surprise you! Did you know? - 1 in 3 people only replace their toothbrush after it looks visibly worn—by then, it’s already too late! - Nearly 42% of people don’t realize that toothbrush bristles become less effective long before they fray, which compromises their cleaning ability. - Shockingly, 25% of adults admit they’ve gone more than 6 months without changing their toothbrush! 1. The 3-Month Rule: Myth or Fact? Most dentists recommend changing your toothbrush every 3 months, but is this really a hard-and-fast rule? Dr. Saad takes a closer look at how often you should swap out your toothbrush depending on factors like your oral hygiene routine, the type of toothbrush you use (manual vs. electric), and even your immune system health. We’ll show you what to look out for! 2. The Hidden Dangers of an Old Toothbrush Using an old toothbrush doesn't just mean less effective cleaning; it could be putting your health at risk. In this episode, we uncover how bacteria, fungi, and mold can accumulate in the bristles over time—yikes! Studies show that bacteria like *E. coli* and *Staphylococcus* can thrive on your toothbrush, especially if it's stored improperly. 3. Brushing While Sick? Time to Replace! Did you know you should always replace your toothbrush after you’ve been sick? We discuss how toothbrushes can harbor germs from colds, the flu, and other infections, potentially causing re-exposure. Many people don’t realize this, yet 60% of dentists recommend it as a best practice for a healthier recovery. 4. Signs You’re Overdue for a New Brush From frayed bristles to weird odors, your toothbrush will give you signs that it’s past its prime. Dr. Saad explains how to spot the tell-tale signs that it’s time for a new one and what happens if you keep using an old brush. Did you know that using an old brush can lead to gum inflammation and even infections? 5. Manual vs. Electric: Do Replacement Rules Change? Are you an electric toothbrush user? You’re not off the hook! Electric brush heads also need regular replacement, and you may be surprised to learn they should be changed just as often as manual brushes. Find out why worn-down bristles on electric toothbrushes compromise cleaning power, and how investing in replacement heads can save you from dental issues down the road. 6. What Happens If You Don’t Change Your Toothbrush Regularly? Think skipping a few replacements won’t hurt? Think again! Studies show that using an old toothbrush significantly decreases its effectiveness at removing plaque and bacteria, leading to higher risks of cavities, gum disease, and bad breath. In this episode, Dr. Saad shares statistics showing that people who change their toothbrush regularly are 50% more likely to maintain better overall oral health. Top Tips to Maximize Your Toothbrush’s Lifespan 🔹 Proper Storage: Learn how storing your toothbrush in the wrong place (like a damp, closed space) can breed bacteria. Dr. Saad walks us through the best ways to store your toothbrush to keep it clean between uses. 🔹 The Right Brush for YOU: Manual or electric? Soft bristles or medium? We’ll discuss how choosing the right type of toothbrush can improve both your oral hygiene and how long it lasts. Did you know that over 80% of dentists recommend soft-bristled brushes for optimal gum health? 🔹 Avoid Cross-Contamination: If you share a bathroom with others, especially kids, keeping toothbrushes too close together can lead to cross-contamination. Dr. Saad offers practical tips to avoid this common mistake. 🔹 Use Toothbrush Covers Sparingly: We know they look convenient, but did you know toothbrush covers can actually trap moisture and encourage bacterial growth? We break down the best way to let your brush air dry after each use. The Surprising Link Between Toothbrush Hygiene and Overall Health A study from the American Dental Association (ADA) found that nearly 20% of toothbrushes contain enough bacteria to potentially cause systemic issues, especially for those with weakened immune systems. Dr. Saad emphasizes how oral health is linked to heart health, diabetes, and more. She explains how maintaining a clean toothbrush is an essential part of your overall wellness plan!

In this episode, we’re diving deep into the world of dental myths—debunking some of the most common misconceptions that might be holding you back from your best oral health. Buckle up because some of these truths will surprise you! - Over 40% of people believe that brushing harder leads to cleaner teeth, yet this is one of the top myths that can damage your gums and enamel! - Nearly 30% of adults think that baby teeth don't matter because they'll eventually fall out—another myth that could affect your child’s future smile.

As always, we’re using digital dentistry and our state-of-the-art CADCAM technology to show you the facts visually—because we believe that **seeing is believing**. Here’s a sneak peek at what we’re covering in this episode: 1. Brushing Harder = Cleaner Teeth? Many people think that applying more pressure while brushing results in better cleaning. But this is a major myth! In fact, brushing too hard can wear down enamel and cause gum recession. We'll show you the gentle technique that works best for oral health. 2. Bleeding Gums Are Normal When Brushing One of the biggest myths out there! While it’s common for people to experience bleeding when brushing or flossing, it's actually a sign of gum disease or inflammation. In this episode, we break down what causes this and how to treat it. 3. You Don’t Need to Floss If You Brush Well A whopping 32% of adults believe that brushing alone is enough. We're here to show you why flossing is an essential part of a healthy dental routine. It reaches areas that your toothbrush can't, reducing your risk for cavities and gum disease. 4. Teeth Whitening Damages Enamel Another widely held belief is that whitening treatments damage your enamel. But, with advancements in dental technology—like the ones we use here at Dent Blanche Dental—whitening treatments are safer and more effective than ever! 5. Baby Teeth Don’t Need Care Almost 30% of parents think that since baby teeth will fall out, taking care of them isn’t necessary. Not true! Healthy baby teeth are crucial for the proper development of adult teeth. We'll explain why early dental visits are a must. 6. Only Sugar Causes Cavities Yes, sugar plays a major role in cavity formation, but it's not the only culprit! We debunk the misconception that sugary snacks are the sole enemy of your teeth. Acidic foods, poor oral hygiene, and even certain medications can contribute too. 7. Mouthwash Replaces Brushing Did you know that 20% of people think rinsing with mouthwash is just as effective as brushing? Mouthwash is a great add-on but can never replace brushing and flossing. We’ll tell you why mouthwash should be the final step, not the main one. 8. You Can Skip the Dentist If You Don’t Have Symptoms Shockingly, 25% of people only visit the dentist when they feel pain or see a visible problem. Preventive care is key! We’ll explain how regular dental check-ups can catch problems before they become big (and costly) issues. 9. Dental X-rays Are Dangerous Many patients fear that dental X-rays expose them to harmful radiation. However, today’s dental X-rays emit extremely low levels of radiation—less than what you’re exposed to daily from natural sources! 10. The More Sugar, the Worse It Is for Your Teeth While consuming sugar in large quantities isn’t great, what matters more is how long the sugar stays on your teeth. Frequent snacking on sugary or acidic foods causes more harm than eating a lot of sugar in one sitting. We share tips on how to enjoy sweets without sacrificing your smile!
