Certainly, and I'm also very concerned about longevity, have been since I was too young to really worry about longevity. I would say that oral health has a lot to do with longevity. In fact, more than you would expect and highly underrated. And maybe it's all about longevity when it comes to oral health. So, I mean, let's talk about metabolic disorders, right?

That's BMI, high blood pressure, triglycerides, inflammation, all of that. I mean, all these metabolic disorders that we're suffering from. Oral health contributes to all of that. It is very, very tied into it. So it's Alzheimer's. There's a connection now between high blood pressure, Alzheimer's, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis. This oral systemic connection

has been around all along, but now dentistry is waking up to this. So is medicine. So is functional health. Oral health is intimately involved with pretty much everything there is to do with dying or living a good life, living a long life. And if you don't address oral health, longevity will be an issue for you.

Mm-hmm.

Right. Well, I'll cut right to the chase. A poorly done root canal or root canal that is done on a tooth that has fractures in it. that weren't noticed by the dentist can take you down. I mean, sepsis, death.

Oh, it's a systemic infection directly from the tooth itself. It's a very difficult thing to do. It's very technique sensitive. And if it's not done properly or if it's done on a tooth, that shouldn't... be getting root canaled, it will fail and those bacteria will will change again. It's a it's like a biome and it will get into your bloodstream and it will take out some of your organs.

It will require that you take a series of very strong antibiotics that could lead to ulcerative colitis or gut issues. And so root canals do have a bad reputation. Unfortunately, it doesn't mean that a root canal cannot work. There's actually a dentist here in La that she's a specialist. She's an endodontist. That's a dentist that does just root canals.
