Tooth Development From a Young Age and Overall Oral Health
Tooth Development From a Young Age and Overall Oral Health
By The Wave Agency
When it comes to dentistry, e.s.i’s Dr. Kilimitzoglou’s experience has become an invaluable source of knowledge when it comes to the development of teeth. In particular, Dr. K emphasizes the warning signs of what the body is trying to tell oneself about oral, and overall health.
“Miners brought canaries into the coal mine because it had an accurate yet sometimes sad way of predicting disaster. The mouth has a similar ability to predict a person’s overall wellbeing,” explains Dr. K.
Dr. K makes sure that his experience is implemented through every level of e.s.i. Healthy Dentistry. e.s.i. emphasizes the comfort and satisfaction of patients paired with impeccable dental care, making for a dental experience like no other.
“Teeth may have dark spots, white spots, stripes, bands or internal stains,” writes Dr. Kilimitzoglou in his book, Speaking the Tooth. In it, teeth are compared to trees. Through this comparison, Dr. K explains that there are ways to tell through previous damage, and other indicators how well one’s oral health is being treated. “By knowing exactly when teeth develop we can go back in time and figure out what these tooth scars tell us.”
It has become clear throughout years of study that one’s development in youth can affect anything from tooth placement to gum health. As a result, dental professionals can notice markings on teeth based on health during one’s toddler-years.
People should also consider the impact of their health in their adult years on their teeth and gums. Acidic diets are a key cause of tooth decay, cavities, and other oral health issues. Keeping your teeth clear of harmful acids and regular brushing and flossing habits will also help to keep bacteria at bay.
