Dental Meridians: The Energy Pathways That Link Teeth and Organs

Introduction: Beyond Anatomy

In holistic dentistry, every tooth is more than enamel—it’s connected to the body through energetic meridians. At Amore Dentistry, we consider how dental health can influence organs and systems.

What Are Dental Meridians?

• Rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

• Each tooth corresponds to an organ system (e.g., molars ↔ stomach/spleen, incisors ↔ kidneys/bladder).

• Energetic blockages in teeth may manifest as systemic imbalances.

Clinical Observations

• Root canal–treated teeth linked to chronic illness (Voll, 1970).

• Tooth infections may correlate with fatigue, joint pain, or digestive problems.

Holistic Dentistry and Meridians

• Use of tooth–organ charts during consultations.

• Collaboration with integrative physicians for systemic health.

• Gentle removal of toxic dental materials to restore flow.

Conclusion: Teeth as Windows Into the Body

By honoring dental meridians, we view dentistry as part of whole-body healing.
