Miami, FL -- (SBWire) -- 08/24/2020 --Although the research may seem novel, holistic dentists have long used the appearance of the tongue to evaluate a patient's overall health, including their oral health. The tongue and its condition remain one of the many essential components in developing effective treatment plans for the patient.
To elaborate on this, an example may be a tongue color with purple and red hues. These colors may reveal that a patient is experiencing poor circulation. A yellow tongue could be a sign that the liver isn't working as it should while a white tongue may be giving off a warning that the body is releasing toxins. The tongue shape also plays a role. If, for example, it is swollen, instability may exist with the body's metabolism while cracks in the tongue may suggest insufficient nutrition.
