Nutritional Counseling

At Dental Health, we have a commitment to improving your total health through dentistry. Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food. — Hippocrates, father of medicine, 431 B.C.

Hippocrates is considered the father of modern medicine. This famous quote is often used because it so succinctly expressed the importance of our daily food choices. The relevance this phrase has is stronger than ever. Nutrition is an underlying theme for just about every health concern we experience today.

To address the underlying causes, we must consider the influence our diet has on our wellbeing.

At Dental Health, we have a commitment to improving your total health through dentistry. There is increasing evidence that oral health and total health are connected. So, we have partnered with Coda Health Kitchen to provide you with programs that allow you to understand how food affects your teeth, gums and overall health.

We offer raw food classes in our Coda Health Kitchen. You can see Christine Ruch, one of our local food heroines, giving some tips in the Coda Health Kitchen:

The team at Coda Health Kitchen has created a wellness program that aims to provide you with the information, tools and services that will guide you towards your dental health goals, minimize the number of dental treatments you require,  and increase your quality of life.  The Coda Health Kitchen is based out of the raw-food kitchens located within select Dental Health Centers.

Restoration of pH Program
Part of your routine exam at Dental Health includes your salivary pH reading. An acidic salivary pH is a prime indicator of imbalance in the body which can stem from a variety of dietary and lifestyle factors. An acidic salivary pH can increase your risk for cavities, gum disease, other oral health issues and general health problems in the body including lowered levels of energy, obesity, joint irritation, diabetes and others. An acidic environment in your mouth can also decrease the life of your fillings or crowns. Through individualized holistic nutritional counseling and planning our Holistic Nutritionist can rapidly balance your pH, increasing your oral and overall health while reducing your risk for dental and general health issues. Our Restoration of pH program includes:

  • 3 one-on-one holistic nutrition counseling appointments
  • Individualized nutrition and lifestyle plan including meal plans and recipes
  • pH monitoring
  • Unlimited email support for the duration of the program
While this program’s focus is to balance your salivary pH for optimal dental health, it will also increase your general health and well being at the same time!
