Holistic Dental Care
The Complete Guide to Healthy Teeth and Gums
By Nadine Artemis
Foreword by Victor Zeines
A beautifully presented and practical guide to natural, at-home oral care, Holistic Dental Care introduces readers to a whole-body approach to maintaining healthy teeth and gums.
Drawing on decades of research and hands-on experience, Nadine Artemis explores how oral health reflects overall wellbeing. Rather than focusing solely on symptoms, she examines the ecology of the mouth — including the physiology of teeth, the role of bacteria, and the impact of nutrition and lifestyle on dental health.
