Proper Dental Muscles Alignment is the Key

(HealthNewsDigest.com) – In a study done by Dr. Koichi Miura, M.D., monkeys had the height of their back teeth reduced on one side of their mouth (equivalent to 30-40 years of use). The loss of height had incredible effects on their dexterity and standard of life. They lost the use of the arm on that side, and were unable to climb or swing from trees. However, when the height of the back teeth was restored, the monkeys’ normal functioning returned.
Is it really plausible to hypothesize that your teeth can have this much of an effect on your entire body? Dr. Miura then became more advantageous and performed tests on human subjects. Starting in 1986 with over 100,000 subjects to date, Dr. Miura tested over 100 different medical parameters – 75 of the 100 medical parameters improved by 75% after one month with the wearing of a night time 10 mm high posterior template and a smaller 5 mm high template for day time and chewing. Therefore one could say that yes, your teeth have a significant impact on health and well-being.
I like to describe this phenomenon Faulty proprioception feedback to the brain or Dental Distress Syndrome. Occurring when the lower jaw (mandible) is locked behind an under-developed premaxilla (upper front teeth). The cause of it is something that we all must face. Aging. As you age, your teeth are worn down and can also be caused by pulling teeth rather than fixing them.
When the front teeth hit too soon, it activates or increases the signal to the sympathetic nervous system and decreases the signal to the parasympathetic nervous system. Remember the overview of embryology previously discussed. The four upper front teeth are extensions of the brain and spinal cord and have a major affect on the sympathetic nervous system. The increase in the sympathetic nervous system and a corresponding decrease in the parasympathetic nervous system that results from the front teeth hitting together too soon can result in the following: increased body activity, increased stress, increased blood pressure, increased heart and breathing rate and decreased glandular, stomach and intestinal function.
The body becomes more acidic and, stress and disease are present. If the missing back teeth are replaced, or if the height of the existing back teeth is corrected and put on the proper plane, the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system will have a good chance of remaining in balance. A balanced autonomic nervous system equals lack of disease.
There are two temporary solutions to this problem I would recommend.
Low-Level Laser Therapy
The quickest way of eliminating faulty proprioceptive feedback to the brain and reprogramming the brain is with low-level laser therapy. A simple technique is to place a one inch piece of Popsicle stick between the back teeth and apply mode one low level lasers on proprioceptive points.
Proprioceptive Guides
Proprioceptive guides are devices that fit over the lower back teeth, providing a raised platform that places the jaw in proper X-Y alignment with the skull. Increasing the height of the lower back teeth with the proprioceptive guide activates the parasympathetic nervous system and lessens or balances the sympathetic nervous system. Proprioceptive guides come in two different types.
In order to permanently correct the problem you must go to a dentist for cosmetic dentistry. Dentists who currently perform this very procedure can be found at leadingdentists.com, and further information about propriocetion and low level laser therapy visit www.qlaserhealinglight.com
