Short YouTube interview (Dr. Sanda Moldovan, periodontist and nutritionist) combining clinical oral-health advice and personal/professional anecdotes. Primary points: tongue brushing can reduce bad breath; improper use of string floss can damage gums; she emphasizes minimally invasive periodontal procedures that avoid bone grafting and can restore missing teeth (patients report looking younger); she mentions outreach work with recovering addicts and attending the 2015 Oscars gifting suites where she promotes xylitol as a sugar substitute.

Hi, guys. I'm Dr. Sandha, Beverly Hills periodontist and nutritionist. Dr. Sanda, amazing. The mouth is the gateway to your health. I walk out of here with a beautiful smile. We do have periodontist Dr. Sanda Moldovani in my practice. I see a lot of patients that are using string floss, and they actually damage their gums, and they swell up a little bit. That's why they're tender. It's almost like having a splinter in your hand.
One of the biggest causes of bad breath is not necessarily battle or hygiene, but it could be not brushing your tongue.
Recently, I spoke with Clean Radio about my work with recovering addicts. As a periodontist, I treat the foundation around the teeth. I look at the gums and the health of somebody's mouth and overall health you can see in the gums. Actually, we avoid any kind of bone grafting, so ultimately, it's a minimally invasive procedure. I've had patients that haven't had back teeth for 10, 20 years, and they said, oh, my God. Everybody's telling me that I look 15 years younger.
I'm here at the 2015 Oscars gifting suites, and I'm so amazed to see how we've grown as a culture. I'm only hoping that next year we'll have xylitol instead of sugar. It tastes just like sugar, and it looks like sugar, so your kids wouldn't even know the difference.
So we're just finishing up Danielle's procedure. Everything went perfect in one day. Everyone that is just, to me, remarkable. Love that, you know.
