Whole-Body Dentistry

The rational behind the title is that more and more scientific research is discovering and revealing that the etiology of an overwhelming array of health problems and diseases start in the mouth. As Dr Warrem M. Levin, M.D. puts it in his comment on the back cover of the book "Mark Breiner challenges the Medical and Dental professions to recognize that the teeth are vital living structures that impact the health of the entire body." One of the things that impressed me the most, when I read the book, is how Dr. Breiner explains some of the most complicated and controversial subjects in a simple straight forward, easy to understand way.Throughout the book, vignettes of case histories are provided as "Dental Detective Stories" that clearly demonstrate the area being discussed. This is an important book that provides a clear insight into where dentistry should be heading in the new millenium. It rationally establishes the inseparable link between dentistry, medicine and your ultimate ability to live in good health.
