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.

💻 Dental Health and Technology

The speaker moves to avoid computer overheating and begins discussing dental health. They clarify that a cone beam x-ray and a cone beam scan are the same, which is important for dental imaging. They also address a situation where a brown streak appeared on teeth after local anesthetic, suggesting it's more related to the procedure than the anesthetic itself. The speaker then provides recommendations for children's gut health supplements, including lemon juice or apple cider vinegar to increase stomach acid, and probiotics and gut healing supplements from Mother Earth Labs. They also touch on the importance of keeping wisdom teeth clean, especially if there's difficulty in reaching them, and suggest using braided or woven floss for better cleaning.

🦷 Tooth Replacement and Long-term Health

The speaker discusses the decision to use dentures or dental implants, emphasizing that natural teeth are irreplaceable. They advise keeping teeth as long as possible and consider snap-in dentures as a preferable alternative to all-on-four implants due to ease of cleaning and maintenance. The speaker shares their experience and knowledge from three years of working with dental implants, highlighting the importance of understanding long-term success rates and risks before opting for such procedures. They also mention the typical cost of a cone beam scan, noting that it's not unusual and is often included in examination fees.

Keywords

💡Wisdom Teeth Removal

Wisdom teeth removal is a dental procedure that involves taking out one's third molars, typically during late adolescence or early adulthood. In the video, the speaker discusses the importance of providing the body with adequate minerals and vitamins, such as vitamin D3, vitamin K2, and broad-spectrum minerals, to facilitate the healing process after such a procedure. The video emphasizes the significance of proper nutrition for bone healing post-extraction.

💡Vitamin D3

Vitamin D3 is a fat-soluble vitamin that plays a crucial role in bone health by aiding in the absorption of calcium and phosphorus. The video mentions that after wisdom teeth removal, it's important to supplement with vitamin D3 to support bone healing. The speaker recommends a daily intake of 5,000 IUs of vitamin D3 to ensure the body has enough of this nutrient to repair the jawbone.

💡Vitamin K2

Vitamin K2 is another essential nutrient for bone health, as it helps direct calcium to the bones and prevents it from accumulating in the arteries. In the context of the video, the speaker suggests taking vitamin K2 in conjunction with vitamin D3 to enhance bone healing after wisdom teeth extraction, recommending a daily intake of about 500 micrograms.

💡Bamboo Extract

Bamboo extract is highlighted in the video as a beneficial supplement after wisdom teeth removal due to its silica content. Silica is known to support the absorption and utilization of vitamin D3 and vitamin K2, which are both vital for bone health. The speaker's recent discovery of bamboo extract's benefits underscores its potential role in aiding the healing process.

💡Retainers

Retainers are dental appliances used to hold teeth in their desired positions after orthodontic treatment. The video discusses the concept of whether permanent lower retainers should be removed to allow for cranial spinal fluid respiration and brain cycle improvement. The speaker suggests that retainers may indicate that teeth are not in a stable position with the muscles and that retraining the tongue and using removable retainers could be alternatives.

💡Cranial Sacral Therapy

Cranial sacral therapy is a form of alternative therapy that involves the manipulation of bones in the skull to alleviate various issues. The video shares a personal story where the speaker's retainer came loose after undergoing cranial sacral therapy, suggesting that the retainer might have been holding the bones in an improper position, affecting neurologic function.

💡Gut Health Supplements

Gut health supplements are products designed to support the digestive system's health, often containing probiotics and other beneficial components. In the video, the speaker discusses the use of such supplements for children, emphasizing the importance of dosing them appropriately according to the child's weight and recommending specific products like those from Mother Earth Labs.

💡Probiotics

Probiotics are live microorganisms that, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host, particularly related to the gut. The video mentions the use of probiotics as part of a child's gut health supplement regimen, suggesting that they are safe and beneficial for children when dosed correctly.

💡Dental Implants

Dental implants are surgical components that support the restoration of missing teeth. The video discusses the use of implants to hold dentures in place, comparing different methods such as 'teeth in a day' or 'all on fours' with the speaker's preference for a snap-in denture system due to its ease of cleaning and lower risk of complete failure if one implant is lost.

💡Cone Beam Scan

A cone beam scan, also known as a cone beam CT (computed tomography), is a type of 3D x-ray imaging used in dentistry for detailed views of the jaw and teeth. The video clarifies that a cone beam scan and a cone beam x-ray are the same thing, and the speaker mentions that a fee of $500 for such a scan is not out of the ordinary, although their office includes it in the exam fee.

Transcripts

hello everyone this is a bit of an

unscheduled live because I'm here at the

Grand Opening and I promised yesterday

on the live that I was going to answer

the questions that I missed yesterday so

here we go we're outside we got a

gorgeous setting out here today we have

all delicious food flowers we're having

a party here but I thought well let's

get some questions while we're

ATN and grab some that I didn't get to

yesterday okay what to use with help

with wisdom teeth removal healing you

know this is something that I'll often

tell

parents when you think about what has to

happen when a wisdom tooth is removed

there's a great big hole in the Jawbone

now and if there's a hole in the jaw

bone if there's a hole anywhere in bone

it's going to need a lot of minerals

it's going to require a lot of minerals

to heal that bone well often we're taken

out wisdom teeth when kids are teenagers

right they're in their late teens and

they're still growing they're still

growing other bones they aren't eating

their best they aren't sleeping their

best a lot of times they're stressed out

it's the worst time to put four holes in

somebody's head is when they're they're

in this growth phase still so you've got

a Super Supplement after wisdom tooth

removal you have to make sure they're

getting enough vitamin D3 vitamin K2 and

lots excuse me my voice isn't working

but lots of broadspectrum minerals

that's what's going to enable bone to

grow the other trick that I've just

learned recently is bamboo extract

bamboo extract has something in it

called silica and silica actually helps

the absorption or utilization of vitamin

D3 and vitamin K2 so those are the

things that I'm really recommending

after wisdom tooth removal is lots of

vitamin D3 and K2 probably 5,000 I use a

day is what I'd recommend of the D3 the

K2 is about uh equal to that is about

500 micrograms of K2 so that should be

daily and then a good mineral supplement

our tooth and Bone formula is my

favorite unfortunately it's on back

order right now we're working with the

manufacturer but I also love humic and

fulvic acid from Mother Earth Labs those

are all great choices for that you just

need a lot of nutrients to be able to

heal that jabone okay thoughts on a

permanent lower retainers should we

remove them to allow for cran it's

cerebral spinal fluid respiration and

improve the brain cycle okay so whoever

asked that question knew a lot of big

words that was very impressive let me

explain what basically it's meaning or

questioning so

retainers let's talk about this actually

because I've not talked about this a lot

but concept that we need retention that

we need to actually hold teeth in place

where we like them to be tells us that

they're not actually in a place that's

stable with the muscles with the lips

and the tongue and the muscles will

always win so you say well my teeth are

going to move if I take the retainers

off well it means that they're not in

the right place for the muscles so

that's the first key is to figure out

where they should be from a muscle

standpoint lips and tongue and you might

have to retrain the tongue to go up and

forward to swallow properly so we

recommend something called M functional

therapy which is actually tongue

training muscle training so that the

teeth can stay where they are but let's

say you already have a retainer you

already have something in the mouth

that's holding the teeth in place I have

to tell you a very personal story this

was so interesting to me so I had had a

retainer since I was I remember I my dad

was my orthodontist and I made him take

my braces off before ninth grade

graduation because in my school nth

grade graduation was a big deal so I

made him take my braces off so I was

probably what 14 maybe 15 at the time

and I had a retainer on from that point

until about five years ago what did I do

five years ago well I actually went and

I had cranial sacral therapy where I had

a therapist that was literally

manipulating and moving the bones in my

skull and he was doing it to help

alleviate some other issues and things

going on the day after IID had that

therapy done my retainer popped loose

and I'd had this retainer for 30 some

plus years and I didn't put two and two

together at first I was like oh that's

interesting I guess my my retainer came

off so I you know smoothed off the

cement spots and just went on my way

then about a day or two later I went

whoa wait a minute that just came off

after I had my my bones

moved could it have been actually been

holding my bones in a place that wasn't

very good for my skull for my basically

the neurologic function and the answer

is yes it actually can because we moov

the bones it popped that retainer off

again like I said I didn't put two and

two together at the beginning so so this

can actually hold things in an improper

position and it does affect sometimes

the cerebral spinal fluid flow or

basically the flow of the liquid in the

brain so what do you do well you can use

something removable that's always an

option so something that comes in and

out so it's not always on there and not

always holding something in place that's

an option or obviously talk to an

orod work

on removable if you haven't dealt the

muscles okay F I'm worried that my my

computer overheat here so I'm going to

turn out of the sun just a little bit

okay I'm trying to find someone local to

me is a cone beam x-ray the same as a

cone beam scan the place I called cannot

tell me if they are the same thing yes

if they say cone beam they have the

right thing so that's what you're

looking for after local anesthetic I

woke up with a brown streak on my other

teeth nearby why did this happen

overnight that's very interesting I

would suspect less the anesthetic and

more whatever the anesthetic was used

for so was the anesthetic used to num an

area to get a filling done that kind of

thing um typically a brown streak on the

teeth if it's intrinsic to the tooth

actually part of the tooth structure

itself is going to go away just with

toothbrushing unless that's always been

there and maybe you're just looking now

and you had never noticed it before or

maybe it's part of the filling material

or whatever was done on the mouth so

anesthetics shouldn't actually affect

the teeth in the area from a coloration

standpoint I know you've mentioned it

before but what is your recommendation

for kids gut health supplements until

you make your own is it from Mother

Earth Labs what was the name okay great

question so let's just talk through what

the supplements are first of all the

first supplement is if you do baking

soda test and you find out that the

stomach acid is low what do you take for

the kiddo well you do want something

that has an acidic component so one of

the easiest things to do is lemon juice

lemon juice and water for a kiddo or

some apple cider vinegar now how much

are they going to drink maybe not a ton

especially the vinegar so lemon juice is

probably a starting point in the water

and that is what I would recommend to

try to add some acid along with the food

because that's the key is you want

acidic you want more acid going on in

the gut the other thing you don't want

to do is to alkalize that so make sure

you're not drinking any kind of alkalol

and water that will alkalize that gut

and then the rest are going to be

probiotic and gut healing components so

you can use all of those the the

supplements that we have actually work

fine for a Kido because you can dose

them out so you can open them up and

they're probiotics and you really can't

overdose on probiotics so you're going

to dose it the size of the capsules that

we have now are for 150 150 pound person

so if you have a 50 pound person you're

going to use a third of what's in that

capsule phase two which is got Health

gut restored those are going to be um

probiotics and helping to build things

so use a third of them you know use less

of them and just add them to a meal add

them to a soup add them to a drink add

them to whatever and you're going to be

able to get that in the third version or

the third step which is the gut well can

absolutely be used for kiddos so again

150 pounds is for a scoop I would

recommend the gut well powder so you're

just going to use you know a quarter of

the scoop and it is actually delicious

you're going to be able to put it in a

in a drink no problem so the one that

really you can't dose out is the HCL

digest it's literally is acid and you

can't really open those capsules and

take them because they're going to burn

so you're going to just need to add an

acidic component in addition so that my

favorite would lemon juice for a kiddo

and just have it in some water have it

in a drink and that's going to acidify

the guts some and then the other ones

are fine to use for

children okay I have a problem with the

wisdom tooth how can I treat it well the

question is what is the problem with the

wisdom tooth I don't really know the

answer to this but let's talk about

often people will say well um do I need

to get my wisdom teeth out and what kind

of problem would indicate that I need to

get my wisdom tooth out so the first

thing is is if there's room in the mouth

you don't need to get the teeth out

that's the key is if there's room in the

mouth we let them stay there we leave

them be um and we look at it in that K

CT scan often you can see in a

traditional Dental

ex as well on the head so look in the

pan look in a panex or conb C scan see

if there's room in the mouth and if

there is then they're good to stay there

now sometimes they're difficult to clean

so some of the tricks that I do with

wisdom teeth is I will use braided or

woven floss which is thicker and I will

actually kind of push it over the back

teeth and down behind that wisdom tooth

and then use it like you'd use a towel

on your back to dry it off so you're

going to use it like this and you're

going to kind of just wiggle it all the

way down as far as it'll go under that

gum because that's often the problem

with the wisdom tooth is you can't clean

it adequately there's kind of some

tissue hanging over it you can't clean

it adequately so use that woven floss or

even some we say some yarn you know or

something thicker to go over the

backside of that clean it really really

well and make sure you're keeping them

clean otherwise you're going to get

tooth decay on those so those are the

most common problems with and teeth if

they have to come out uh they have come

out with denture implant what do you

think so there are implants that can

hold dentures in place and this has been

out for a long time actually for three

years I did just exactly that um I did

implants that held dentures in place the

problem with it is that you always there

there's never a replacement for a tooth

exactly like nothing's ever as good as a

tooth that came out so if you're looking

at Dentures obviously your teeth are in

a you know in a in a place where it's

not savable or things are not going to

turn around for you so that's too bad

I'm sorry to hear that if PE people all

the time tell me though is it just time

for dentures is it just time to take

everything out and I say no unless it

really is no it's not because you never

going to replace a tooth with anything

nearly as functional as your previous

tooth so we always recommend keeping the

teeth in as long as possible and keeping

them healthy as long as possible if you

have to replace them I actually prefer

something called a snapd in where we'll

put a couple of implants in and we'll

put snaps on the underside of the

Denture and they snap in place why do I

prefer that over these teeth in a day or

what are called all on fours because you

can clean them you can snap the Denture

back out you can clean the D the dental

implants really well now sometimes

people don't like anything that snaps in

and out I get it but I've seen so many

issues with these Allon four ideas why

because let's say you can't clean very

well around one of them and you end up

losing one of those dental implants well

the entire was built to the four

implants or the six implants if you lose

one you're starting all over on the

entire thing so this is a big deal and

you need to know this ahead of time

before going in and um like I said this

is all I did for three years so I'm very

very familiar with that sorry if my hair

is looking a little weird you're just

going to have to deal with that it's a

little windy right now which actually

makes it cooler so I'm appreciating the

wind um but you need to know going in

what the risks are and what the success

rate is over a long term so they can

tell you yes we have great success rate

you know five years from now but what is

the success rate 15 years from now so

that's one thing you need to make sure

of as well okay we're g to do one

I'm so um is $500 a normal fee for a

cone beam scan we actually just kind of

pull it into our own fees our new

patient fees when we do that uh at our

at our office so we don't charge the

full you know 500 but that's not out of

the ordinary fee or something like that

to have $500 fee so uh definitely that

is not out of the ordinary like I said

we just bulk it all into our exam fee

and a lot of offices will do that as

well they'll just kind of combine it

into their exam okay so we are going to

jump on here if I get another minute

I'll jump back on and we'll do this

again thank you so much for joining and

I'm just going to see if I can get

through a bunch of these questions today
