Following over 50 years of study and listening to experts, I want to share with you why good growth and good functioning of the mouth is so important. Let me explain why the Mouth is the Mirror of your Life. Good jaws mean a better neck alignment and a better airway and less snoring and less sleep apnea, good gums mean less bloodstream inflammation and good teeth will ensure you good jaw support, a good smile and a long healthy life.
1. Nasal Breathing
The first system depends upon a well-grown upper palate or maxillae and palatine bones. Our oropharynx is important because nasal breathing actually ionizes the air we breathe. The paranasal sinuses also add nitric oxide to our air as it passes to our lungs, which helps with our heart and our metabolism. Most of our breathing should be via the nose for this reason as well as their conditioning and the cleansing effect of nasal reaching.

3. Suckling for Breastfeeding
Breastfeeding is the number one health, prosperity and happiness measure function that we humans can partake in at birth. Not breastfeeding and not supporting breastfeeding is “wrong thinking” in life, in politics, in our economy and in modern medicine and modern dentistry. All breastfeeding mothers should have a tax deduction and a thank you note from their dentists. Plus, a financial incentive to continue breast-feeding from their government. This would recognize that breastfeeding is the number one health measure for newborns to grow and prosper. This pays off in the long run as an investment in preventive medicine. Every national government and the World Health Organization should pass a resolution that Breastfeeding is a birthright of all infants.
4. Swallowing
Swallowing lubricates our digestive tract and allows us to consume food unless we want a lifetime on an IV drip. The tongue is not a simple one-nerve muscle. The tongue is actually a specialized organ system powered by the five key cranial nerves of our basic embryonic developmental arches. Our incredible tongue–hyoid bone system is what drives swallowing and speech. Did you know that until about 6 months of age the human baby could both breathe through its nose and swallow through its throat to breastfeed at the same time?
5. Tongue-Powered Speech
Production of different speech sounds depends upon our all-powerful Tongue, which is powered by all five developmental nerves and is uniquely human in its construction and ability to produce speech sounds along with the unique airway of humans. Speech is just thought in action.
6. Assist Balance, Vision, and Hearing
Without a healthy tongue, trigeminal nerve system and healthy jaws, we can lose our balance and we can fail to walk in a straight line. Got a balance problem? Visit a dentist! Our ears are our balance and hearing organs, and they are intimately tied to our jaws. The upper jawbone supports our eyeballs and if it does not fully develop (as is often today the case) this puts strain on the eyeball and all the supporting muscles. Dr Harold Arlen was a strong proponent of medical-dental cooperation as he wrote in his article The Otomandibular Syndrome. Speaking about the connection between the Tensor Veli Palatini (TVP) muscle, the jaw, stuffy ears or hearing loss and the Trigeminal nerve says this, “The TVP is the only muscle of the soft palate innervated by the Trigeminal nerve and the only muscle that functions to open the Eustachian tube. This is the key to the relationship between the jaw and ear dysfunction that is plaguing modern man, along with the deterioration of other parts of the jaw and the dental apparatus.”
7. Posture
Man evolved painfully over millions of years to become an erect hominid. Today we are losing our erect posture and becoming bent forward with scoliosis, twisted spines and wrynecks. If the jaw is too far back or too deep, then that person tends to have a forward head posture. This is a brain compensation to preserve the airway since oxygen is the brain’s number one food. The modern human form is degenerating because our diet and lifestyle has changed for the worse. We are too connected to sugars and electronic devices. The number one symptom of poor jaw growth, posture and function, a sore neck or a headache.
8. Good Sinus Drainage.
If the palate fails to grow to the dimensions in our genetic blueprint then our sinuses will not drain well.
2. Mouth Breathing
- Nasal (Nose) Breathing.
- Mouth Breathing is an alternative to nasal breathing. We are not supposed to mouth breath all the time. Breathing well is dependent on jaw and tongue position since the front half of our mostly muscular airway is the tongue. If your lower jaw is retruded or you bite too deeply then you might snore, or have a tendency to clench your jaw muscles while you sleep. This mouth breathing is second best and snoring is not far behind. Mouth breathers probably have more infections than nose breathers. Remember the pneumonia that kills old people usually comes from mouth breathing and inhaling or aspirating mouth organisms while sleeping and snoring.
