How to halt severe tooth decay in a young child with dietary changes alone within a matter of days. No dental intervention or surgery required.
The CDC is reporting that preschoolers’ teeth are in really bad shape. In a startling trend reversal, the number of preschoolers with severe levels of tooth decay is rising.
Dentists everywhere are confirming this trend.
More and more preschoolers from all income levels have 6 -10 or even more cavities. (1, 2)
It doesn’t seem to matter if the child gets regular checkups or whether good tooth brushing habits are followed.
The decay is often so severe that the teeth are literally crumbling out of a child’s mouth.
The solution recommended by conventional dentistry is immediate surgery.
Multiple fillings and root canals in a single visit necessitate general anesthesia as a child that young cannot sit still for the length of time required to fix so many severely rotting teeth.
Sometimes sedation with laughing gas and a local anesthetic works, but not always.
Something is obviously very, very wrong with the diet of the vast majority of children to cause such severe tooth decay at such a young age.
Constant snacking on refined carbohydrates and juice is no doubt a big part of the problem as is the complete void of nutrient-dense foods in most children’s diets.
Conventional Dentistry Ignores Cavity Reversal
Fortunately, more parents are discovering the power of simple dietary changes to save their children’s teeth.
I’ve written before about how I healed my child’s cavity in a few weeks with dietary change alone. Â
No filling was ever required for that tooth. This was over 15 years ago!
How about severe and rampant decay in a preschooler’s mouth, however?
If you think that your child’s teeth are beyond help and surgery is the only option, there is hope!
The video below of how it only took 5 days for severe decay to stop with dietary change alone is sure to change your thinking about the possibilities for your own child.
Be aware that conventional dentists ridicule this approach. They never learned that cavities can heal in dental school.
However, the fact is that tooth decay CAN be reversed was documented and photographed by renowned dentist Dr. Weston A. Price in his book Nutrition and Physical Degeneration.
Just because conventional dentists don’t believe it, doesn’t mean it doesn’t work.
At the very least, dietary change is worth a shot before putting your child through surgery, wouldn’t you agree?
Simple Dietary Changes for Astounding Results
The protocol the Mom in the video below used for reversing severe decay in her young child is outlined in detail in the book Cure Tooth Decay by the late Rami Nagel.
I had the honor of meeting and conversing with Rami extensively about his views on oral health at a health conference in 2013.
I highly recommend his book as a must-read if you are having cavity problems in your child (or even in yourself!).
The Mom in the video below was told surgery was the ONLY way to go due to the severity of her daughter’s decay.
This conventional dentist was wrong!
Only simple dietary changes were required to fix this child’s severe tooth decay. This avoided certain surgery and likely general anesthesia.
Toddler Tooth Decay Halted
Please note that while dietary changes were responsible for healing this rampant tooth decay, a natural remineralizing toothpaste that facilitates the reparative process can also be helpful.
This brand of tooth gel and remineralizing powder is also safe and effective if you are not able to make your own.
Beware of commercial remineralizing toothpaste and treatments, including those sold at dentist’s offices.
Conventional remineralizing toothpastes contain fluoride which negatively impacts a child’s IQ, according to Harvard scientists.
Biological Dentists Recognize that Teeth Can Heal
I get many, many requests about who I recommend as a truly holistic, biological dentist.
I recommend Dr. Carlo Litano of Natural-Smiles.com in Pinellas Park, Florida (727) 300-0044. He has treated our entire family for many years.
He sees both children and adults and does phone consults for those who don’t live close enough for an office visit and may need a second opinion.
Medical tourism is a growing trend well worth considering as well.
Tell Dr. Litano that The Healthy Home Economist sent you and get 10% off your first cleaning or exam.

Make sure you use toothpaste without glycerin. My family all had really bad teeth my 29 year old sister has all dentures, my younger sister gas several teeth rotting out. My youger susters children have perfect teeth, no cavities and they eat crap but their mother rarely brushes their teeth. My neice als has bad teeth and her son eats okayish and she brushes his teeth like your apparently supposed to and at 5 has bad teeth to. Its genetics, its epigenetics, diet, toothpaste.

I’ve fixed dental problems with no sugar no unprepared grains or best yet no grains, add some fermented cod liver oil / raw butter oil. Best to make bone broth too. Follow that for a few weeks and the pain goes away. Up to a few years to fully fill bad teeth. Just my two cents

Look for a biological dentist as well for a more holistic friendly dr.

Another issue is fluoride in drinking water. We have 4ppm in our city water. (which all is not necessary) Here’s an article:http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2013/01/20/fluoride-denialism.aspx ~Beth

This very thing happened to my oldest. We brushed religiously, ate healthy, never took a bottle to bed or even drank milk etc for more than an hour before bed. His front teeth were down to nubs by 4yrs! We found out a few years later that he had Celiac & his body was leaching the calcium from his teeth.
