We came across this article featuring well-known Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow. It talks about how she sought advice from a holistic dentist to actually help her family deal and heal from her split with her musician husband, Chris Martin. The two notorious split in 2016 in what they described as deciding to “consciously uncouple.” She sought the advice of a dual specialist in both holistic pediatric dentistry and orthodontics to “gain a deeper understanding of holistic dentistry and the different elements that can provide healing.

As your trusted Wilmington biological and holistic dentist, we provide similar support levels to our family of patients. Beyond educating patients of all ages and stages of life about the many life-changing benefits of holistic dentistry, it’s our job to get to know you on a deeper level, both personally and medically. This ensures you’re going to get the best, most personalized experience possible.

What’s Happening in Your Life Can Affect Your Oral Health

Paltrow speaks in the article about how she remembers going to the dentist and wondering how the added stress of a divorce can wreak havoc on our oral and overall health. She wanted to learn about how holistic dentistry could help her kids heal while also giving them the care they need to have a healthy smile.

As a holistic and biological dentist in Wilmington, we have additional training and technology to address symptoms of dental disease differently. This is also where the idea of getting advice from us or sharing with us what’s going on in your life is essential to your oral health.
