Holistic Dental Care

The Complete Guide to Healthy Teeth and Gums

By: Nadine Artemis, Victor Zeines - foreword

Narrated by: Kate Marcin

Length: 3 hrs

Publisher's Summary

A comprehensive guide to natural, do-it-yourself oral care, Holistic Dental Care introduces simple, at-home dental procedures that anyone can do. This audiobook offers dental self-care strategies and practices that get to the core of the problems in our mouths - preventing issues from taking root and gently restoring dental health. Based on a "whole body approach" to oral care, Holistic Dental Care addresses the limits of the traditional approach that treats only the symptoms and not the source of body imbalances. 

Taking listeners on a tour of the ecology of the mouth, dental health expert and author Nadine Artemis describes the physiology of the teeth and the sources of bacteria and decay. Revealing the truth about the artificial chemicals in many toothpastes and mouthwashes, Artemis also discusses the harmful effects of mercury fillings and the much safer ceramic filling options that are available. Covering topics that include healthy nutrition, oral care for children, and the benefits of botanical substances and plant extracts for maintaining oral health, Artemis introduces a comprehensive eight-step self-dentistry protocol that offers an effective way to prevent decay, illness, acidic saliva, plaque build-up, gum bleeding, inflammation, and more.

Critic Reviews

"Nadine Artemis's well-balanced, well-researched book credibly encourages readers to take control of their own dental health. Plenty to chew on in this stimulating dental compendium." (Kirkus Reviews)

“Achieving optimal oral health cannot be done exclusively in the dental office; oral hygiene and nutrition are key to preventing major dental work and the consequences it can have on the body. I have helped people at a professional level for 30 years and it is clear that we must give people tools to help themselves at home, for their everyday care. This book helps the dental profession and makes dental care more accessible.” (Lina Garcia, DDS, DMD) 

“Nadine Artemis brings great clarity and insight to the mouth-body connection. Holistic Dental Care is filled with pearls of wisdom that make a difference.” (Stuart M. Nunnally, DDS) 

A Must-Listen for all who still have teeth

She answered questions that my dentist couldn't. Shame that dentistry became a mere construction job.

Paradigm Shifting

This is a great book. The author gets right to point and packs a wealth of information into a short span of time. For me, it was a new perspective on dental health. As with conventional medicine, we consumers benefit from educating ourselves - rather than simply relying on the directives of professional doctors.

Very educational and insightful

Loved learning about healing and repairing mouth health. Wish I had known sooner, could of prevented a lot.

Wonderful!

learned and still learning from this book! you can save your teeth sometimes with help.

Insightful, practical and very well written

I only wish I read it few years sooner! But it gave me interesting insights and tips I started using right away and it helped! I will recommend this book to all my friends, especially those who have kids! One of the best healthy books I ever read! I feel grateful for it.
