Things seem to come in threes. Lately, I’ve had a streak of patients having dental issues as a root cause of their chronic diseases. I felt that it was time to talk about how the mouth can be a reflection of overall health and that chronic disease can begin in the mouth.
Dr. Michelle Jorgensen, DDS is an author, speaker, and health-based dentist. She calls herself a “functional integrative dentist.” She has written five books and runs an education center for Living Well.
After practicing traditional dentistry for 10 years, she became ill from drilling out mercury fillings. Her own healing journey led to her creating the Total Care Way, an answer to chronic disease.  Patients from around the world seek out her care.
She has received certifications as a Therapeutic Nutritional Counselor and is a Traditional Naturopath.  A busy mom of four, she loves to spend time with her family.  She is happiest when teaching and helping people!
