Q & A

What is recommended for healing after wisdom teeth removal?

After wisdom teeth removal, it's crucial to ensure adequate intake of vitamin D3, vitamin K2, and broad-spectrum minerals to aid bone healing. Additionally, bamboo extract, rich in silica, can enhance the absorption of these vitamins.

How do you prevent issues with permanent lower retainers affecting cranial spinal fluid flow?

To prevent retainers from affecting cranial spinal fluid flow, consider removable retainers or address the muscle balance in the mouth through therapies like M functional therapy, which involves tongue and muscle training.

What happened to the speaker's retainer after cranial sacral therapy?

The speaker's retainer, which was worn for over 30 years, popped loose after cranial sacral therapy, suggesting that the retainer might have been holding the bones in an improper position.

What is the significance of a brown streak appearing on teeth after local anesthetic?

A brown streak on teeth after local anesthetic is likely unrelated to the anesthetic itself and could be due to the procedure performed, such as a filling, or an intrinsic part of the tooth structure that was previously unnoticed.

What is the recommended supplement for children's gut health according to the speaker?

For children's gut health, the speaker recommends probiotics and gut healing components, such as those found in Mother Earth Labs' supplements. For low stomach acid, an acidic component like lemon juice can be added to water.

Why is it important to clean wisdom teeth properly?

Proper cleaning of wisdom teeth is essential to prevent tooth decay, as they can be difficult to clean due to their location and potential for tissue to hang over them. Using braided or woven floss can help reach and clean these areas effectively.

What is the speaker's opinion on dental implants for dentures?

The speaker prefers dental implants with snap-on dentures over 'teeth in a day' or 'all on four' options because they are easier to clean and maintain, reducing the risk of losing the entire prosthetic if one implant fails.

What is the typical fee for a cone beam scan as mentioned in the script?

A typical fee for a cone beam scan is around $500, although some offices may include it in their examination fees.

Why is it not advisable to remove all teeth for dentures according to the speaker?

The speaker advises against removing all teeth for dentures unless absolutely necessary, as there is no replacement as functional as natural teeth. It's better to keep and maintain teeth for as long as possible.

What is the speaker's personal experience with dental implants?

The speaker has personal experience with dental implants used to hold dentures in place, having undergone the procedure themselves three years prior to the discussion.
