The Mouth-Body Connection: How Oral Health Impacts Chronic Illness

In today's episode we’re diving into one of the most overlooked yet critically important pieces of the chronic illness puzzle — the mouth. Joining me is Dr. Alexander Volchonok, founder of TetraHealth Centers and a nationally recognized leader in biologic dentistry. Today’s conversation will explore how biologic dentistry connects the dots between oral health and systemic illness. Biologic dentistry is not just about teeth — it’s about understanding the mouth as an integral part of the immune and neurological systems. Dr Alex covers topics like mercury fillings, root canals, TMJ, and everything you need to understand the mouth-body connection. These issues often go undetected in conventional models of care, so this episode is a must-listen for patients and practitioners seeking answers when traditional approaches fall short. Dr Alex and his team use advanced diagnostics such as 3D CBCT imaging, biocompatibility testing, ozone protocols, and meticulous surgical techniques. TetraHealth helps patients reduce inflammatory burden and restore physiologic balance. TetraHealth also offers telehealth consultations. Dr Alex is generously offering a $100 discount on initial consults for listeners who mention this podcast.  For more information: mytetrahealth.com Instagram: Tetrahealth Biologic Dentistry Don't miss out—download, add, or follow to stay tuned for our episodes and new stories every Wednesday.
