Guest guest Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 I don't know if this will work w/ teeth that erupted w/o enamel, but it's worth a try. It was most likely caused by some kind of deficiency in the mother during pregnancy. From what I read the enamel may never " grow, " but as long as the teeth themselves are healthy enough to fight cavities, it shouldn't pose too much problems. I'm pasting what I posted to Dental Chelation group so I don't have to retype it. :-P Are you familiar with Weston A Price's study from a few dacades ago? I believe the book Nourishing Traditions is authored by a WAP member. Bascially there are ways to cure cavities w/ nutrition. It's an excellent prevention. Some of the key elements are (I'm sure I'm missing some): vitamin K2 (activator X) which helps with mineral absorption (high-vitamin butter oil by Green Pasture) daily bone broth for minerals daily cod liver oil with 10:1 ratio of vitamin A to D (Green Pasture brand is good) daily vitamin C high-vitamin butter oil, natto, organ meats, shellfish, etc also are rich in K2 http://journeytoforever.org/farm_library/price/price16.html I agree w/ you on minerals being the big key here. WAP says magnesium is key to healthy teeth. Xylitol is good for your teeth. I use gums and little mints for when I can't brush my teeth after a meal. It alkalinizes your saliva. Glycerin found in all toothpastes hinder remineralization of teeth, but some say if it contains less than 55% it's OK. We've been using tooth powder. There's Dr. 's (which I use), Uncle Harry's, and a few others. Then there's toothsoap (toothsoap.com, not the imitations that are out there). A lot of people reported teeth sensitivities went away after eliminating traditional toothpastes. Bicarb (baking soda) is too abrasive for your teeth and can wear down enamel. It should only be used once a week max to whiten teeth. I know fluoride is controversial, but I think it's fine as long as it's not consumed internally (we have fluoride in most city waters in the US). I stopped getting cavities after I started rinsing with fluoride mouth rinse. Well, once after pregnancy I developed a tiny decay next to one of my fillings. There's a huge thread on mothering.com's forum regarding healing dental caries with nutrition using WAP protocol. It took me a few weeks to read it all, but there were some good info in there. The first post alone will tell you how it was done. http://www.mothering.com/discussions/showthread.php?t=399989 You can find a local WAP chapter to buy grassfed beefs, free-range chickens, eggs, raw milk, etc. There are some int'l chapters as well. http://www.westonaprice.org/localchapters/index.html HTH!

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 You can find links to fluoride info at this post... /message/236696 and danasview.net also has good links... I would note that my two " lead " kids have enamel problems - addressed off and on over the years, depending on finances...big sigh, perfect baby teeth, not so with their adult teeth...anyway, it was an ongoing battle, whether from new cavities or chipped teeth, etc...until, tada, about a year after I eliminated as many fluoride/aluminum/tin sources as I could - did this based on migraine girl's issues, but incorporated this one into our entire household...While their teeth are still not pretty, they are no longer sensitive, they have had no new cavities, etc, etc. I assume their teeth are stronger, healthier inside, yk? A side benefit I hadn't anticipated... Fluoride could have its uses topically to address enamel issues (not sure I believe even that much, at this point, but am relatively open-minded to that one idea, just can't see that it would apply to anyone - fluoride being rather unavoidable for the vast majority of people) And, to ingest fluoride does nothing to address these types of enamel issues....as I understand it.
