Author of the book, Eclectic
Dentistry, a gold mine of information on restoring and maintaining proper
dental and overall physical health, Dr. Green believes that dentists can use
the mouth as a barometer of the immune system, helping patients to develop
higher awareness of health.
Correcting the altered body
chemistry that leads to dental disease reduces pain and increases our
capacity for love. Irritable or inflammatory feelings are the first
clues to a disturbed immune system. Sensitive teeth, bleeding gums,
mobile teeth or sore jaw muscles are important clinical signs.

Dr.
Green's Bio |
|
The root cause of exaggerated
response is reduced electrical vitality of the cell. This immediately
reflects in thoughts and diminished vitality. Significant amounts of
magnesium, best found in four fistfuls per day of deep-green vegetables, can
stabilize most irritable cell membranes.
Inflammation is characterized by
enhanced pain response, muscle spasm, trigger points, diminished joint
lubrication, tooth decay, and the swelling, hypersensitivity, increased
gingival bleeding, pus and putrefactive odors of the periodontal diseases.
Controlling inflammation involves identifying and reducing immune triggers
and boosting anti-inflammatory systems. |
