At Go Natural Dentistry in Fort Lauderdale, Dr. Cintron and her team believe that a healthy mouth is key to a healthy body. Instead of treating oral health and hygiene as an isolated issue, they believe that oral health is connected to the health and the wellbeing of the human body in its entirety.
Today we will examine how the 30th first molar tooth also known as the right mandibular first molar is interconnected with certain organs and systems within your body with the help of the Meridian Tooth Chart. The chart is a graphical representation of how teeth are connected to various systems and organs in the body through ‘meridians’ or pathways of energy.
The 30th first molar tooth is considered one of the most common teeth subjected to tooth decay and up to 45% of all teeth that are extracted are 30th first molars.
When looking at the Meridian Tooth Chart, the 30th first molar is connected to the Large Intestine Meridian, and its energy flows through the right large intestine and the ileocecal valve. It is also connected to the pituitary gland as well as ethmoid cells in the sinuses. The meridian is also connected to the upper and lower extremities in musculature, as well as to joints such as the inner knee, big toe, foot, radial hand, elbow, shoulder and sacroiliac joint.
Furthermore, the 30th first molar also has relationships with problems such as rheumatism, stone formation, myalgia in legs, excretion of citrates, oxalates, phosphates and urates, headaches behind ears, vein as well as pituitary issues.
For example, the infection of the 30th first molar can cause either of the above organs, systems or joints to possibly have issues, and vice versa. This is why good oral hygiene is crucial for a person’s overall wellbeing.
