Weak Tooth Enamel & Gluten

And he goes, the dentist said, I have weak enamel. And I said, well, what do you mean weak enamel? And I said, weak enamel is not normal. I said, did he tell you why you have weak enamel? And the first thing that popped into my head is that he probably had undiagnosed celiac disease, which can cause weak enamel. And lo and behold, I tested him and sure enough, he had marked a response to gluten. And, when he got off of it, a lot of his symptoms, they didn't affect his teeth because the horse was already out of the barn, but he also was having unexplained fatigue and malaise and all that kind of stuff. And actually just getting off of gluten cleared up those other conditions. And, you and I well know that there are multiple autoimmune conditions that are associated with gluten sensitivity. But, weak enamel is one of those things And I also, I try to get my patients and the dentists who I see either as patients or dentists who I meet in social circles to really be aware of that because I just think it's below everybody's radar.
