Testimony of a Person Accompanied by an Italian Humano-dentosopher
Our dental experience began around February 2021, when after a visit to the dentist, it was announced to my daughter Zoé that she would need 1 or 2 removable orthodontic appliances.
My 7-year-old daughter was sitting on the chair, her mouth open, with a doctor and an assistant performing a 3D panoramic X-ray. One was pulling in one direction, the other in the opposite direction. An overwhelming noise filled the scene.
And something triggered in me. I was uncomfortable and this discomfort made me realize that there must be a better way, less invasive, to help her.
There needed to be a method that takes into account the person. I looked at my daughter and it was like reliving a situation I had already experienced, but from the outside as a director and I saw my daughter as a protocol, which I had been all my life as well.
I wondered what it meant in broader terms, when you allow a person to look at your mouth. Today, we allow any doctor to look at us anywhere without thinking at all about what it means to expose oneself to someone. Internally, I wondered if Zoé had necessarily had to live what I had lived. The phrase "it's like that because everyone has always done it that way" hung and still hangs in my mind.
And I said no. No.
I have an inverted articulation, a prognathic type, and from the age of 3 until 18, I wore and suffered everything in my mouth, thinking that things could not be changed; I grew up with the idea that we all, more or less, had to follow the same path, always on the same tracks.
It was then that humano-dentosophy came to me, in the form of a woman, a mother like me, who explained to me not only that there were not only invasive methods, but that the structure of the mouth is a picture of each person's history. She showed me in practice what was already emerging in me, that it takes willpower to change our patterns, our approaches to everything, and not just in reference to the mouth.
And it was from there, precisely from following this NO that changed things, that our adventure began.
Zoé received a diagnosis of crossed occlusion with a prognathic tendency.
She had many nighttime fears and frequently woke up. In just two months, many things changed. A nightmare occasionally and she became a complete sleeper.
Her mouth is evolving rapidly and I am convinced that it will improve even more.
Her character changes.
Now, she is much more self-aware. If she doesn't want something, if she wants something, if she is not in agreement with something, she expresses it through many facets that characterize the Self she did not express before.
I believe that this journey helps her understand who she is, just as she does with me.
I decided to live this adventure with her, because I am convinced that children learn by example and not by words.
In me, I saw the birth of the true Self. I really wanted it.
I frequently had cervical headaches and lower back pain. Today, they have practically disappeared.
If I start to have pain, I wear the activator and it fades until it almost completely disappears.
My "reactions" to things transform into conscious actions.
And calm replaces anger in many actions and thoughts.
I realize now just how much "domestication" begins with the mouth.
Have we ever wondered why we are told how to think? How to work?
The questions that arise in me are infinite, as they were when I was 3, then they stopped.
I would like to make some considerations that I have lived and that I realize only now.
We all need to rediscover who we are and humano-dentosophy is certainly a tool that helps us, because it helps us get out of the protocols in which we have trapped ourselves.
There is no one who is identical to another, so there cannot be protocols.
There is no mouth that behaves exactly like another.
Each has their own specific path. There can be similar things, but never identical.
And these considerations change everything, the entire conception of the individual and the way he perceives himself and what surrounds him, and from there, the entire society.
It is true that changes arise from the Small, from a Child who asks why.
It is this "why" that changes everything, that allows a change in all areas.
My husband decided to join us in this adventure and did his first tests of will by reading the book. He was very passionate about it and is very encouraged by the results he sees in us: a conscious gesture changes everything and becomes "contagious."
It is the "awareness" that was missing... but stopping, breathing, and being inside myself deeply change me and a simple learned gesture, like adult swallowing, has stimulated the opening in me of wonderful worlds that I never would have imagined.
For me, the contribution you bring to the world is incredible because you make people aware.
So thank you, really thank you.
Your work is fundamental.
