Teeth - A mirror of Good Health from Ni Zain

One of the real bad things in health which can happen to you are ear, eye and tooth aches. Seams anything in our head area just knocks us off big time. But, with teeth, there is more to it. Good teeth are a sign of good health. Bad teeth a sign of bad health. Your dentist can tell the stage of your health, by the way your teeth look like. As well, as for the teeth of your child.

Many parents are still not aware, that healthy milk teeth are a sign of a well growing and healthy child. The longer the milk teeth last, the better. Means A: Your child has a good basic health and B: Your child does not grow teeth faster than it should, because of too high calcium levels.

Ideal for your child is having all milk teeth without decay until they fall out at the age of 6 to 8 years. I believe a child loosing its teeth at the age of 5 or younger has far to high calcium levels and is growing too fast. Fast growing does not always have to be good. As I mentioned in other articles. It is the quality that makes it, not the quantity.

Too much wheat, dairy products and sugar in a child's can bring the first onset of health problems, which show off in milk teeth. Parents give their babies bottled milk, which is high in sugar. Yes it is. Very often this milk is given in the night to an age of 2 years and higher without the child brushing its teeth. Where tooth brushing is not the key point in this, the key point is to have the sugar in the mouth. - Breastfeeding, like for any other reason does not come with such problems. Mother nature has done a great job to prevent your baby from tooth decay. A friend of mine was a dentist and when we visit him a few years ago in his home, one of the first things he said to me: You are breastfeeding. He saw it on the good and healthy teeth of my daughter.

Additional do not give your child over 1 1/2 years anything else to drink at night than pure water or breast milk. Now you will come with the argument that your child needs the milk at night. NO! Your child is only craving for milk at night because it has not got enough nutritional food during the day. You know that feeling of going to the fridge at 10h at night? Well, means your body gives the signal: I am hungry. Well, why do you think it is like this? We get hungry when we need nutrition and not when we need the bad joules. Same counts for your child. At night your child is growing, so it needs a lot of nutrients. Where to take from if nothing is there? Also if you get your child in the habit of night "eating" it will not be enough hungry during the day. Food during the day, sleeping at night.

So now. What to do if the teeth are getting bad already. first of all, introduce your child already at the age of 5 - 6 month to tooth brushing. If you brush your teeth, take your child with you and show your child what you doing. Give your child a little tooth brush, even there are not teeth yet. The earlier they get used to brushes and the taste of toothpaste the better. Make sure to use a toothpaste without any chemicals. Florid is not as good as people think. fluoride has a very bad influence on our Thyroid Gland and can cause major health problems later in life. If you eat health you don't need Fluoride. And there is natural fluoride in some food.

Do not give up the tooth brushing routine anymore. I remember at one point I had to use the high chair and the tooth brush would be thrown down 10 times in a row. But at the end if your child learns, it will take the routine. Little helps like a sand clock help to keep the fun up.

If teeth are already bad only get them fixed with plastic inlays. Never use any Amalgam. Also never get a root canal treated on children, as their roots are open and the whole chemical bomb of the root canal treatment goes into your child's brain. Something your really would not like to have happening to your child.

Do not leave rotten teeth untreated in your child's mouth. The bacteria released of those teeth can cause major health problems, which start with running nose, vision problems, eczema, rushes and can go up to heart problems and cancer. You think this is over the top, not at all. Unhealthy teeth can cause more health problems than people normally are aware off. Find a dentist which is treating your child in a "Biological Dentist Way". Many treatments on teeth are already marked as dangerous in some countries. but most countries still have an blind eye on what their dentist are doing.

Also, be aware. The only way to turn your child's health and teeth around is a balanced diet. Sugar, milk and wheat are not a part of this diet. If your child has problems with its milk teeth, it will have also problems with the next set of teeth. And if I tell you now, that this failure of wrong diet can cause a big list of health problems in the future. You might run for years to the doctor and never find the source of your problems until you have most of your rotten teeth removed. Dead teeth (root canal treated teeth) are dead and rotten. Again modern medicine has left a big gap open on healing many health problems in just checking peoples mouths. I have resolved major health problems in my clients in just telling them to remove their Amalgam fillings.

And isn't it wonderful if you look at a little one and they have a wonderful smile with bright white teeth, rather than this foully horrible look which is now seen everywhere. It makes me always sad to see a little beauty with a fancy dress and than rotten teeth. For me it is not just the rotten teeth, it is also knowing that this child is cueing up for major health problems in the future.

Just briefly I meet a 50 year old man with fantastic teeth. White and strong. Still all there. He told me that he always was eating a very healthy diet. As a child he lived on the country side and they only had natural food. Sugar was a special once a month or even never. He told me that he still lives on a very healthy diet and he is proud he still got such wonderful teeth.

My parents where starving in the second world war as children and teens. Both of my parents lost their teeth in their 50th. I had a bad diet as a child. To much sugar and wheat. I lost already many teeth, but for the last 10 years I am eating very well and surprise, surprise... I had not had any new holes. Only problems with old fillings from my childhood. Many of the children who come to me with poor health have yellow teeth. Many adults I treat with serious health problems have serious problems in their teeth.

So dear parents, get yourself another thought if you doing the right thing with the diet of your child. Have a look at the teeth of your child and be honest to yourself if you have done a good job for the last years... Not all they telling us in TV and newspapers is true. More and more we need to see, that we all have been super brain washed over the last 60 or more years. So now - make the change - for the future of your child!
