It's National Children's Dental Health Month and in this episode id like to share my personal experiences and would love to highlight the importance of addressing hidden factors like breathing patters, pH balance, and nervous system health when it comes to children's oral and overall wellbeing.
Key Takeaways:
-Mouth breathing is a red flag that can lead to issues like decreased saliva production, cavities, poor sleep, and altered facial growth.
-Maintaining proper pH balance in the mouth through diet and lifestyle is crucial for oral health.
-Balancing the nervous system and addressing trauma and stress can have a significant impact on children's oral health and development.
-Early intervention, including observing feeding and breathing patterns, is key to preventing long-term oral health problems.
-A holistic approach that addresses oxygen, water, nutrition, exercise, respect, and sleep (the OWNER framework) is essential for supporting children's overall health.
