The scientific evidence proving to the correlation between teeth, occlusion and body posture.

The correlation between occlusion and posture was finally demonstrated by the experience of a person who adopted the Starecta method.
Simone Sincini, that had a problem of undiagnosed skull-mandibular imbalance as 98% of people, had tried every kind of therapy before solving the problem (with the Starecta method).
First, let’s understand what was Simone’s problem, and most importantly how it was identified by the Starecta team.
Simone had:
– A lateral deviation of the skull to the left, which had created a significant musculoskeletal asymmetry (frontal plane);
– A huge lack of dental height (sagittal plane) on both arches in the premolar and molar areas, which had caused an increase of kyphosis, cervical and lumbar lordosis with eyes looking upward.
By observing Simone’s frontal plane we can understand how the lack of dental height on the left arch has caused the collapsing of the skull at that point. Simone, like all of us, probably was born with this asymmetry which has then worsened over the years making his life impossible. In fact, the lateral deviation of the skull to the left has caused facial, and subsequently body, asymmetry.
