Since the age of 'reason', I was aware of my 'difference'. I was prognathic, with a very pronounced protuberance on my lower lip. Beyond the physical difference, my teeth were severely misaligned, breaking all the time... As an adult, I had moved several times and I had often heard: "You know now, by cutting your lower jaw here and here, we get very good results." The risk? "Minimal, because we will describe an 'S' on your lower jaw nerve. There are cases, but very rare, where the risk is to see 'fall' your lower lip!" My response over time was well rehearsed! Thank you Doctor, I'll think about it! ! ! My character traits were a bit more 'darker' than normal might be... it's said that people with a prominent chin go forward... This year, I started using the activator, and then a phenomenon of adaptation occurred. I might be making a face, but I had the impression that my head (the inside too) was transforming. Still as enthusiastic, but with more reflection, a better analytical spirit, in short, I felt different; things that seemed impossible became very approachable, even easy. If I were to do it again, I would do it with even more enthusiasm.... If these few lines could help parents act without delay on the full health of their children...

" I was 9 years old and for a long time, I lived almost every night what psychiatrists commonly call 'night terrors'...
Without regaining consciousness, I would get up, eyes wide open (like somnambulists) in a terror that I couldn't describe with words. My greatest and deepest fear was to cause harm to my loved ones during these uncontrollable phases. You can imagine what my days were like, with the permanent fear of the night approaching. During the day, I had sometimes severe vertigo.
My parents, helpless, had me consult the greatest specialists, who had me undergo countless tests, EEGs, and other exams to find a word for my 'ills', in vain...
Then the activator arrived in my life. I immediately felt that it was my chance. I put so much willpower that in a week of chewing (I hadn't worn it at night yet) my terrifying nightmares that haunted even my days disappeared with the vertigo and all the associated troubles."

Thomas 18 years

Before starting the therapy, I was ashamed of my teeth. Peers would mock me. At that time, I was living it very badly.
At the beginning, I was attracted by this treatment because I could keep all my teeth. I no longer had to endure a metal appliance on my teeth. At the beginning, I understood that the therapist was there to accompany. Similarly, I could stop at any time.
At first, it was difficult. Later, I no longer paid attention. What motivated me was the dialogue with the therapist. I understood that it was for me and not for others.

I also felt an improvement in my life. I knew more what I wanted to do. It helped me in my relationships with others. The most important thing is that I could laugh at myself and became less sensitive to others' comments.

In general, it helped me to orient my life according to my personal feelings. I also understood that when I bit the appliance, my teeth evolved and, in parallel, my whole body also changed (a knee problem improved).
I greatly appreciated the discussions that gave me a little boost (I retained a particular word: 's'éclater'). Now I want to do it at every moment.
For example, I reflected on the destiny: we don't suffer from life, we create our opportunities.

Thomas's parents

Right away, it was clear for everyone: Thomas must be involved in the therapy, otherwise, it won't work.

Our role as parents was simple: to be interested in Thomas, what he said, how he felt about his therapy.
What we noticed was that Thomas evolved with his teeth and vice versa.

From a school perspective, until 3rd grade, Thomas had a hard time living school. He redid two years. We could feel, for example, unhappy when he had bad grades, but we didn't feel more motivated to change that.
It was Thomas himself, with the help of an orientation counselor, who chose the profession he wanted to practice. He also chose the school.

It was at this moment that Thomas took charge of his training. The taste for study became more and more natural for him;
He succeeded with excellent grades in the two exams he presented.
Parallel to this, his teeth found their place.
It is only to be noted that his dental problem was resolved simultaneously with his personal evolution.
Giving him the opportunity to put order in his mouth allowed him to get in phase with his life and vice versa. For this, the exchanges with his therapist during the care sessions were very important for him.

Alexandre 17 years

Before, I was obese and consequently uncomfortable in my skin.
I communicated poorly with others because I was shy and reserved, almost shut in myself. I only saw my physical appearance.
When I started the treatment, my teeth were very far from what they became. My lower teeth were hurting my upper gums...
The progress was constant and not only at the dental level.
I lost about 20 kilograms without doing a strict diet. This allowed me to practice a variety of sports without any handicap.
Free from my physical appearance, I became more open to others, communicating easily with all types of individuals.

PARENTS' TESTIMONY OF ALEXANDRE At 7 years old, Alexandre had a significant overbite.
In addition to the dental problem, Alexandre was also showing a tendency to obesity and a very timid behavior. (fear of being alone and facing the unknown.) The Practitioner explained a lot about the "philosophy" of this treatment.
Over the six years, and particularly the first two, we noticed a very positive evolution both in the dentition (repositioning and absence of cavities) and in physical development (modification of the autonomous diet leading to a significant weight loss, taste and practice of sports in general) and in social behavior (gaining confidence, becoming more open to others)...

It's almost a year since I started chewing this piece of rubber and I have to admit that I'm not surprised myself. It's hard to admit that you can change things with such an ordinary object. It's not necessarily a given from the start...
After some reflection, I realized that everything wasn't as simple as it seemed. I had always carried a sense of unease, nervous anxiety, and some blockages. There were still periods of discomfort, always accompanied by psychosomatic symptoms, like migraines, nausea due to a general blockage, and various difficult-to-overcome anxieties. Since the beginning of my experience with dentosophy, I admit that things have changed. First, my teeth moved, which gave me courage. I no longer felt periods of discomfort or almost none, I had more confidence in myself, I didn't have new migraines, I had more positive visions about the future and about life. In short, I feel happy, it's not paradise but it's no longer hell in shades. It's not a sudden change but rather a gradual one...
I admit that the facts are quite startling.
I no longer experience extreme, explosive joys, but in return, I no longer experience great distress that makes me fall into a state of significant weakness.
What gives me the most pleasure is the almost complete disappearance of my anxieties.

It's almost a year since I've been using this "jaw" twice a day, and I must admit that it gives me a sense of well-being. I don't know why, but the result is there. Let's go back a bit. When I came to see you, I was very skeptical about the effects of this piece of rubber. I was in a pitiful state, depressed, with obsessive disorders, neck pain, tinnitus. I fled my home every weekend. From doctor to doctor, from anxiolytics to antidepressants, I was searching for the cause of my state. I was convinced that it was physical. Now, looking back, I realize that I was mistaken... The use of the device made me realize that the psychological aspect takes a predominant part in all our ailments. I don't know why the fact of chewing this piece of rubber allowed me to get out of my depression.

I have to admit that the facts are clear: it works. After having cleared the fog in which I lived, I am no longer the same and I will never be the same.

Christiane 52 years

« In March 92, I took the bull by the horns and with my dentist's help, I had a series of examinations, visits to specialists, scans, X-rays, and more. All for me to hear: you have a jaw like a 90-year-old grandmother (I was 43 years old)! Your jaw, we can do nothing, it's worn out. As a last resort, an operation was considered; grafting a piece of hip cartilage on the meniscus of the jaw with all the risks that come with it, such as the possibility of causing facial paralysis. In short, I refused but my dentist didn't give up. He exposed my case to his colleagues until one of them gave him an address.
An urgent appointment was made in March 93.
Dental appliance, wedges under the jaws, rubber mouthpieces to chew. All a psychology work was put into motion to recognize that a year later, I was feeling better. I won't explain the method here but I can say that today in June 2001, I feel well, the jaw has taken its place and it's no longer twisted. »

Emilie 22 years

I started the treatment in 1993, I was 14 years old.
I was torn by very painful neck pains; I had a canine that didn't erupt and my life was more the life of others than my own.
I was rebellious, in opposition with my parents, school, and pretty much everything that concerned the 'adult' world.
I realize now that I was living through the ideas, projects, and tastes of others. I was innovative and creative, but I was carried along by my life which was not really born from my own choices. I was transparent.
I was not really myself and, in fact, I was unaware of the existence of this concept which had no importance to me.
Then the treatment in progress and the years passing, I felt less the need to attract attention and the gratifying compliments that flattered my ego in need of love.
I often wonder how I would have been if I hadn't integrated it into my life. I feel more and more independent and strong, in the sense that my choices are the fruits of my creations, I am responsible for my life and I feel wonderfully well in my shoes even if I still ask for comforting words, now I know they are no longer necessary.
It's not easy to compare the before and after because I have the impression that I have always been like I am now. Only this 'Emilie of today' was in depth, in possibility, ready to be in action but stuck and hidden under a pile of old things and toxic thoughts that I have since sent into orbit...
I am today present in my body that I love and that I listen to with a lot of attention, this strength that accompanies me is the most beautiful proof of love that I have never received from anyone else but 'me loves me', and today I am proud of myself, of this person who exists and who is called EMILIE.

Elsa 13 years

Starting this treatment, I gained more confidence in myself, I express myself more, I say what I really think but I didn't change only on the character level but also inside my body.
Since I put this appliance, I did more things that I would never have done before, I said things as I felt them then before I didn't express my feelings.

I think it's impossible to describe what you really feel because the words wouldn't be enough to say what it gave me so you have to try this treatment and then you see.

Dentist's Testimony from Italy

Diving into Dentosophy was for me like embarking on a journey beyond the Pillars of Hercules; I knew nothing about orthodontics and truly believed I would never want to know more.

And yet, despite a thousand hesitations, I was fascinated by this therapy that proposes, using a rubber appliance, to rebalance not only the mouth and structure but also the individual, in the totality of their body and psyche.

It was what I had always been seeking; I felt there was an appeal.

And so I embarked, not knowing if I would discover a shorter route to the Indies or, as it turned out, a new continent full of riches. Little by little, all the pieces found their rightful place. My ignorance turned out to be an advantage: I didn't have to "empty" and get rid of preconceived notions to welcome new knowledge.

By wearing the activator, I could personally verify these words:

"The therapist acts according to their limits, not according to those of the method. And the limits of the therapist are those of their mouth. We think, feel, educate, treat, direct, and create the world in accordance with the balance or imbalance of our mouth."

The daily use of the activator allows our boundaries and limits to be pushed back, a little more each day. This, combined with the fascinating theory that supports Dentosophy, allows me in my daily practice to truly understand the suffering, not only physical, bodily but metaphysical, of my patients.

It gives me the means to accompany them in their healing journey, clearly perceiving the steps to follow and the tools to use.

And I have understood that it was precisely the limits of my mouth that came with the hesitations to embark on the path of Dentosophy.
