A Note from the Author
Sleep apnea is on the rise, along with stress, healthcare cost, and your copay and your health insurance premium. What can you do to reduce your health risks while looking better and feeling great? How can you head off sleep apnea and its many costly complications proactively?
In Six-Foot Tiger Three Foot Cage (6T3C) , we focused largely on establishing the sleep-airway-mouth link. This sequel builds on that link to offer a model of proactive care for the human frame.
Many clues are scattered on healths downhill slide toward sleep apnea and its medical-dental-mental-financial consequences. Putting on Sherlock Holmes hat to do some Chair Side Investigation (CSI) leads all too often to an impaired mouth structure as the culprit. An Impaired Mouth starts your health domino toward sleep apnea and its co-morbidities. Early Sirens shows you the dots to connect, and what you can do.
Sleep apnea is simply a late outcome of Impaired Mouth Syndrome, a diverse set of medical, dental, mental symptoms stemming from the discrepancy between a size 3 mouth and a size 6 tongue resulting in a partially choked airway.
Sleep apnea happens because the critical health warnings from the body have not been heard early on. This causes patients to waste massive amounts of time and energy going from doctor to doctor to seek answers and resolutions theyre not finding until now. What clues are on the earlier part of the downhill, and how can the slide be slowed or even reversed?
Early Sirens follows the WholeHealth paradigm that says all parts of the body are connected without the artificial/academic medical-dental-mental divides. Early Sirens then offers a proactive program called Holistic Mouth Solutions that redevelops your size 3 jaws to open your airway, support your sleep, and realigning your jaws with head and spine reduces or resolves chronic pain naturally.
In short, restoring your health starts with restructuring your mouth following the law of better form and function. This is the missing piece in the sleep apnea puzzle.
At the end of each chapter, I offer a few Holistic Mouth Nuggets take-away pearls on the WholeHealth perspective. Holistic Mouth Nuggets are simply conclusions that have made sense to me and worked for my patients. They have not been validated by formal studies. Until all the studies are in, Does this make common sense? is a good yardstick.
For best results with this book, I recommend that you read the chapters in the order presented, starting with the Introduction. As you read, bear in mind that no part of this book is intended as medical or dental advice, or as a substitute for that advice. Please therefore discuss your health issues, and what you learn in this book, with your attending healthcare professional(s). Youll find additional details for consumers and healthcare professionals in a special section just for book readers, which youll find at www.HolisticMouthSolutions.com/BookBonuses .
If youre ready to turn on wellness, turn back illness, and stop one health trouble after another, Early Sirens will illuminate what youve been missing in order to succeed, and will show you what a painless and natural Holistic Mouth as a natural solution can do for your whole body health.

Praise for Early Sirens
Dr. Felix Liao has now produced a wonderful expansion on his initial work, Six-Foot Tiger, Three-Foot Cage in his new book, Early Sirens . Dr. Liao is a rare heath pioneer in that he demonstrates how many dental and ultimately medical problems start with abnormalities of head and neck anatomy.
It is readily apparent from the experiences of his patients and from the scientific literature that a very large number of life-threatening diseases get their start because the oral cavity anatomy never had the proper proportions at birth. It is also apparent that pediatricians, physicians who treat adolescents, and pediatric dentists should be routinely referring children for a Holistic Mouth Checkup early-on in their lives.
Once a medical problem starts, the disease becomes the focus, and only very rarely is any thought given to helping correct the anatomic abnormalities that often feed that disease.
I offer my highest recommendation for this latest work by Dr. Liao. It should be required reading for all dentists and physicians, preferably before they graduate.

Liaos Early Sirens correlates impaired mouth structures with numerous chronic symptoms and illnesses in a clear and understandable way that is appropriate for both health professionals as well as holistically-oriented individuals interested in improving their health. For millions of people, not only can insomnia and sleep apnea be successfully treated with functional oral appliances, but many other health complaints can be cured through treating the root causea dysfunctional airway due to crowded teeth and misaligned/underdeveloped jaws.

Dr. Liaos Early Sirens brilliant connects the dots into a coherent downhill slide story from Impaired Mouth structure to airway obstruction to sleep apnea. This allows you to reverse course in time by using his most sensible Holistic Mouth Solutions.

Early Sirens is not only a must read for the public, it is a must read for all health professionals.
Mark A. Breiner, DDS, Author of Whole-Body Dentistry
There are many oral health issues that can have a significant, and negative, effect on overall health. These range from gum infection to chronic mercury poisoning from mercury released from amalgam fillings. In Dr. Felix Liaos brilliant book Early Sirens , he addresses a number of other important oral health issues, including root-canals, snoring, teeth grinding, and malocclusion, that can also have a severe impact on both oral and overall health. I strongly believe every patient should be evaluated for the issues he discusses in his book and once identified be treated appropriately. While written for the patient I also consider it a must read for every practicing dentist. Very well written and illustrated, it is also easy to understand, with well thought out treatment solutions. Ive known Dr. Liao for many years and have a very high regard for his experience and dedication to superior whole-body health by Holistic Mouth.
I highly recommend this excellent book for anyone who sincerely wants to achieve optimal oral health and eliminate the health symptoms related to the specific oral health issues he discusses in Early Sirens .
