Praise for
Reversing Gum Disease Naturally
“Reversing Gum Disease Naturally emphasizes the
blending of the classical and holistic approaches to oral
hygienic health care. Sandra Senzon, R.D.H., emphasizes
the gentle, natural nurturing of the gingival tissues in order
to resist bacterial invasion, and thus maintain your proper
gingival health. She also stresses the concept of teeth
lasting for a lifetime through enlightened prevention,
including proper home care and oral hygiene. This book
allows the patient to be an active participant along with
healthcare professionals.”
—Jay P. Goldsmith, D.M.D.
“Reversing Gum Disease Naturally presents techniques and
information so that you can reverse already unhealthy states
in your mouth or prevent the onset of gum disease. Sandra
Senzon enhances patients’oral health through traditional as
well as holistic methods.”
—Barry Musikant, D.M.D.
“After reading Sandra Senzon’s book, there is a ray of hope
at the end of the tunnel for all those who suffer from gum
disease. We ultimately don’t have to lose our natural teeth.
Sandra Senzon shows us the many ways in which the mouth
is connected to the body, and how, with the use of natural
herbal products and proper mechanic techniques, you can
reverse gum disease naturally.”
—Joseph P. Greer, D.O.S.
