Before You Decide on Wisdom Teeth, Fluoride, or Braces… Listen to This with Dr. Berry Gillespie
Why is it so hard to find real guidance about wisdom teeth, fluoride, and braces for our families?When I first invited Dr. Barry Gillespie onto the podcast, I thought I was bringing on a traditional-turned-biological dentist. This is what I shared in my community The Rebalancing Collective, and what I shared on my instagram stories when I was gathering all the questions you wanted answered. But as soon as we began talking, I quickly realized I had misunderstood and what unfolded ended up being far more empowering than the conversation I originally imagined.What makes this conversation so powerful isn’t just Dr. Gillespie’s wisdom. It’s the honesty that only comes from someone who has lived inside the traditional system, followed the rules, believed in the model, and then had his entire perspective altered by real life. He’s here sharing his opinions after fifty years of seeing both sides… what dentistry teaches and what he now knows to be true about whole-body healing. And for me, that carries a different kind of weight. When I walked into my house after this interview, Ty and our kids asked me how it went, and the only words I could find were, “I feel like I just sat with one of those wise people you see in documentaries… someone who has actually lived the things he’s talking about.” His insight means so much to me, and I know to every single one of you listening, because we’re not here for symptom-masking or band-aids. We’re here for lived experience. And hearing from someone who has walked both sides and now chooses a different path is deeply grounding and profoundly empowering.You’ll hear his honest, unfiltered opinions on the things so many of us feel pressured into… wisdom teeth removal, fluoride, braces, root canals, and why, as he says, “you don’t want to go along with the herd.” He takes you out of fear and back into discernment. The conversation around wisdom teeth alone is going to shift how you think about dental timelines. We compare it to circumcision, how the culture tells us to do something simply because “that’s what everyone does,” instead of making decisions with intention and understanding. If you’re someone who’s ever sat in a dental chair or a doctor’s office wondering, “Is this really the only way?”... this episode is for you. It’s humbling, empowering, and filled with the kind of wisdom that helps you see your health in a whole new light.I can’t wait for you to meet Berry! Let’s get into it!Thanks for listening!
