Key Takeaways
- Biological and holistic dentistry is about systems versus symptoms
- People often observe major shifts in their health after dental procedures
- The culture of a family can affect dental health and it’s not just how you are eating but how often you are eating.
- There is no known safe level of mercury and mercury fillings produce mercury vapour.
- Lemon water is a strong acid and can’t be in your mouth for any amount of time without causing issues with your teeth.
- Compress drinking into a small amount of time to aid oral health
- Modern convenience foods are all pre-macerated
- Our access to processed foods is phenomenal with foods already in a bottle or a bag, pre-chewed and full of acid, sugar and preservative.
- Teeth colouration is influenced by surface-based staining and the colour of the dentin underneath.
- Darker colouration in teeth dentin is usually down to diet and biochemistry in your early years growing up.
- All teeth are formed from the same tissue as the central nervous system.
- When you remove a tooth there is a change to the energetic flow through the energy meridians of the body.
- Red light therapy is an effective way to support recovery after dental surgery so that no narcotics or anti-inflammatory prescriptions are required.
- On a daily basis, you should find time to be reflective – when you are able to be in a parasympathetic state your teeth are able to detox themselves.
- Getting a balance in energy is critical to your dental health.
