Orthodontics in a quantum world III: electromagnetic field theory and oral parafunction
International Journal of Orthodontics (Milwaukee, Wis.)
|November 5, 2008
Abstract:
The study of electromagnetic field theory and bioenergy has established that there is an extensive communication system throughout the body by way of a functional matrix. This enables the body to use the mouth to assist it during the expenditure of effort elsewhere in the body. A variety of oral behaviors can be identified as contributing to this. To some extent, these behaviors indicate where an imbalance is present in the body.

01:15Teeth
The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin and...

01:24ortho–para-Directing Deactivators: Halogens
Halogens are ortho–para directors. They are more electronegative than carbon. Therefore, as ring substituents, they can withdraw electrons through the inductive effect and deactivate the aromatic ring towards electrophilic substitution. Halogens also have an electron-donating resonance effect on the ring, which influences the orientation of the incoming electrophile. If an electrophile attacks at the ortho or the para position, the halogen donates electrons and stabilizes the intermediate...
