Ok, let’s hear it. How many out there have a “No more mercury” button?

We’ve been safely removing those worn down and dangerous mercury-laden fillings for years. Why is that a big deal?

This is such a great video from the creators of the BaleDoneen Method, which helps find out if patients have arterial inflammation and if so, applies individualized treatment to extinguish inflammation to halt its progression with genetically guided, evidence-based therapies.

Your new patient appointment at ODW will take some time. A couple of hours to be exact. That’s the only way we really get to know you — and you really get to know us.

We don’t believe meaningful care happens in rushed conversations or quick glances at a chart. We believe it happens by listening closely, asking better questions, understanding your goals, your health history, your concerns, and the story behind your smile.

Because to us, you’re not just a set of teeth.
You’re a whole person.
And that deserves our full attention.

For some patients, walking into a dental office feels routine.
For others, it feels impossible.

IV sedation isn’t about “being dramatic.” It’s about helping people feel safe enough to finally get the care they’ve avoided for years. Fear, past experiences, strong gag reflexes, medical anxiety, long procedures — these are real things. And sometimes the bravest thing a person can do is simply show up.

Comfort matters. Trust matters. And no one should feel ashamed for needing a little help getting through treatment.

Is your root canal infected?

What if it is? Is it really a problem if you can't even feel it?

An infected root canal poses serious systemic health risks because lingering bacteria and toxins can enter the bloodstream and spread throughout the body. Some of the primary concerns include:

Chronic Inflammation
Cardiovascular Strain
Immune System Burden
Blood Sugar Management
Sepsis
Bone Loss

Proper diagnosis is the key! Traditional dental radiographs do not always show the hidden infections associated with a failing root canal treated tooth. This is exactly why every patient at Origin Dental Wellness has a cone beam CT scan taken. It is the best diagnostic tool when trying to detect these hidden infections or when pursuing the root cause of other health complications.

Doctors Bale and Doneen received acclaim from the scientific community in late 2016 for their role in publicizing the oral-systemic link through their evidence-based conclusion that periodontal disease is not simply a risk factor for, but a contributing cause of, heart disease. Their most recent post is too good NOT to share:

"Most people think oral health stops at the mouth.
But inflammation and harmful bacteria in the gums can affect far more than your teeth. Research continues to show connections between oral health and heart disease, blood sugar issues, cognitive decline, memory concerns, and even pregnancy complications.

Your mouth is not separate from the rest of your body.
It’s connected to everything.

That’s why true prevention looks deeper."

“If it doesn’t hurt, nothing’s wrong” is one of the biggest myths in dentistry:

The truth? Many dental issues are silent… until they’re NOT!

That’s why proactive, health-centered care matters.

Call your dentist to make sure there's nothing lurking beneath.
