Abstract:
The toothlessness and, specifically, the oral gap which is present between the lower and upper gums in the oral cavity of the toothless baby, while only temporary anatomical deficiencies, are, nevertheless, very important ones. It is suggested herein that this phenomenon of toothlessness and temporary physical abnormality has the ability to cause sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) in a significant number of babies in their early months. What follows is a presentation of a new biological approach to the underlying causes of SIDS and, in the Conclusion section, concrete and practical suggestions are given for a completely new method to counteract and neutralize the threatening dangers of SIDS.
