Beyond Your Smile: The Surprising Truth About Oral Health

Beyond Your Smile: The Surprising Truth About Oral Health

How often do we think of oral health as part of our overall health picture?


In this fascinating episode of IMAGE The Check-in, Ellie Balfe is joined by dentist, Dr Bronagh Keane, better known to many on social media, as Ireland’s Tooth Fairy, for a conversation that opens up the much bigger story behind our teeth and gums.


They explore why oral health is far more than check-ups and cleanings, and how the health of our mouth can reflect, and influence, our wider wellbeing. Bronagh explains the links between gum disease and systemic inflammation, what emerging research is telling us about oral health and conditions such as dementia, and why women need to think about dental care through the lens of hormones, ageing and lifelong prevention.


They also talk practical habits, common misconceptions, what signs not to ignore, and the small daily actions that can have a big impact over time.


It is a conversation that may well change how you think about your next dental appointment.
