Can mouth breathing affect eczema? (S5E7)

In this episode, my guest talks all about how mouth breathing is tied to eczema, skin issues and the overall health of the rest of the body. We also discuss 2 research studies that specifically studied the link between mouth breathing and eczema (links below). Mouth breathing can be related to:

• Asthma & atopic dermatitis
• Facial development changes (long narrow face & narrow mouth)
• Crooked/crowded teeth & braces
• Sleep interruption
• Reduced oxygen levels
• A tongue-tie

In children, interrupted breathing during sleep can have severe effects on brain growth. Here are 2 Links to mouth breathing and eczema research studies:https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4411141/ https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1991790220301380?via%3Dihub Here are additional studies demonstrating the link between dental infection & eczema: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19691752 - dental infection associated with nummular eczema https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16924154 - improvement of eczema symptoms after removing amalgams https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17442076 - dental infections & eczema symptoms http://www.jacionline.org/article/S0091-6749(16)31456-7/abstract - children with eczema more likely to develop tooth decay https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4411141/ - mouth breathing linked to higher rates of eczema
