As health-minded patients have become more aware of the mouth-body connection, biological dentistry has been growing in popularity across the nation, and more patients than ever before are searching for a “biological dentist near me.” As a biological dentist, Dr. Yolanda Cintron at Go Natural Dentistry in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, loves helping patients achieve optimal oral health while also taking their whole-body wellness into account.
