Teeth
Teeth are the hard, mineral structures of our set of teeth. Their health depends on care, diet and dental attention. At the Kyborg Institute we additionally read teeth on a symbolic level.
Our reading: experience and firmness
In our reading, teeth stand pictorially for experience and “firmness” – for how we “bite” our way through life. Some connect with this also ideas of karma.
Factual: dental health
- Sugar and acidic food promote caries; good oral hygiene protects.
- Milk teeth are important placeholders.
What does that mean in practice?
- Attend to good dental care and regular check-ups.
Frequently asked questions
How does the Kyborg Institute read the teeth?
We read them symbolically as an expression of experience and 'firmness'.
What protects the teeth?
Good oral hygiene and little sugar and acidic food, because both promote caries. Regular check-ups come in addition.
