- Cavity
- The thing you get that forces you to stop procrastinating your visit to the dentist. Caused by eating the wrong types of foods.
- Composite
- A fake tooth material used when your body stops producing real tooth material.
- Crown (or cap)
- A sign of honor placed upon your tooth when you have not eaten a good diet. FYI, many "porcelain" crowns still have metal in them.
- Dentin

- Enamel

- Filling
- The stuff that you put in pastries that causes toothaches.
- Gingivitis
- 1. An ancient chinese herb for health.
- 2. Arthritis of the mouth and tooth joints. Each tooth is cemented into place with ligaments and special cartilage. Gum inflammations occur when the body is out of balance, many times from poor digestion.
- Impacted tooth
- A tooth confused about which direction to grow due to a poor diet. Teeth impact not because of genetics but because there is not enough space in the jaw for the tooth to fit. This lack of space is due to a poor diet, it is a result of blocking our genetic potential with inferior foods and drugs.
- Orthodontist
- Usually a male who drives around in a new Mercedes or BMW and owns a second home in Hawaii. Ideally they correct facial imbalances which are a result of a poor diet. I have some recommendations on where to find holistic orthodontists in the middle of the page.

2. Also a ligament that supports teeth.
