Cuidado de toda la boca: repensar los hábitos de salud dental | Dr. Kami Hoss | TEDxUConn

El Dr. Kami Hoss, ortodoncista y fundador de la empresa de cuidado bucal SuperMouth, sostiene que la boca está relacionada con el resto del cuerpo y no es un sistema aislado. La charla, presentada en TEDxUConn, aborda las posibles relaciones entre la salud bucal, las enfermedades cardíacas, el sueño, el embarazo y la salud mental. También cuestiona consejos dentales desactualizados y propone hábitos de prevención. TED señala que la charla refleja las opiniones del orador y no sustituye el consejo médico.

• La salud bucal como parte del bienestar general
• Vínculos entre la boca, las enfermedades cardíacas, el sueño y el embarazo
• Crítica a los consejos dentales desactualizados

NOTE FROM TED: Please do not look to this talk as a substitute for medical advice. Research around lifestyle, oral care products, and health remains an ongoing field of study and best practices remain debated. This talk reflects the speaker’s own views and interpretation. TEDx events are independently organized by volunteers. The guidelines we give TEDx organizers are described in more detail here: http://storage.ted.com/tedx/manuals/tedx_content_guidelines.pdf In my talk "How to Actually Brush Your Teeth", I'll reveal that oral health isn’t just about a bright smile - it’s a gateway to total body wellness, influencing heart disease, sleep, pregnancy, and even mental health. Yet, most of us are unknowingly damaging our teeth with outdated, incorrect advice. By revealing the hidden science behind oral care, I’ll empower people with simple, life-changing habits that can transform their health, longevity, and well-being - one brush at a time. Dr. Kami Hoss is an orthodontist, dentofacial orthopedist, entrepreneur, and leading voice in oral-systemic health. For three decades, he has challenged the long-standing belief that the mouth is separate from the body, advocating for a biologically driven, prevention-centered approach to health care. He is the co-founder of one of the largest multispecialty dental practices in the United States and the founder of SuperMouth, an innovative oral care company focused on age-specific, science-based prevention. He is also the author of the bestselling book If Your Mouth Could Talk, which explores the powerful links between oral health, pregnancy, airway and sleep, mental health, systemic disease, and longevity. Through his clinical work, research, and international lectures, Dr. Hoss encourages both professionals and the public to rethink outdated models of care and recognize the mouth not as an isolated system, but as the gateway to whole-body health. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
