Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  E whakahaua tonutia ana mātou kia whakamahi i te aho niho, e kī ana ngā tohunga niho ka taea e te reira te tāpiri tau ki to tatou ora. Engari e ai ki tētahi tākuta niho, he maha nga tau e mahi hē ana te nuinga o tatou. Kua whakaputaina e Dr Carlos Meulener, he taote niho no New Jersey, he ataata e whakaatu ana i te huarahi pai ki te horoi niho kia pai ai te ataata. <unk>He pai te horoi, engari kāore i te ranea - me horoi koe i te niho hei tango i ngā huakita i waenganui i ngā niho,<unk> hei tāna. Kua whakaputaina e Dr Calos Meulener tētahi ataata e whakaatu ana i tana 'hangarau kotahi meneti e horoi ana i te niho' e ai ki tana e āwhina ana ki te whakakore i ngā huakita o te waha. E whakaahuahia ana ia e mau ana i te miro i waenga i nga maihao e rua, tata ki te inihi te tawhiti. E tohutohu ana ia kia mau ki tētahi wahi o te miro niho, ā, kia whakairihia ki runga ki ngā maihao aratau, engari kaua e tino kaha kia mamae ai. I a koe e horoi ana i te rarangi o runga o nga niho, whakatakotohia nga maihao kia tata ki te inihi te tawhiti i runga i te miro. Ka mea a Tākuta Meulener: <unk>Ko te take he raruraru te nuinga o te iwi ki te whakamahi i te roro, nā te mea e ngana ana rātau ki te nui rawa o te roro ki roto i o rātau mangai. <unk>Ko te huarahi ki te whakahaere ko te whakamahi i ō maihao mō ō niho o runga me ngā maihao waenganui mō ō niho o raro. <unk>Whakaurua taua nui o te miro ki waenganui i ēnei maihao kia taea ai e koe te whakahaere ngāwari i tētahi taha ki tētahi atu.<unk> Kātahi ka whakanohoia te miro ki waenganui i ngā niho e rua, ka whakairihia ki roto, ki runga, ki raro hoki i ngā niho, kaua ki te tarai i tētahi taha ki tētahi taha. Ko te 1. Tangohia tētahi wāhanga o te miro niho, ka whakatakoto i ia maihao kia kotahi inihi te tawhiti. Ko te 2. Whakanohia te miro ki waenganui i nga niho o runga. Ko te 3. Kia mau tonu te maihao o muri, nekehia te maihao o mua ki runga, ki raro hoki hei horoi i te niho. Ko te 4. Kaua e 'whakamātai' - ki mua, ki muri - engari ki runga, ki raro, e horoi ana i te miro ki runga, ki raro hoki o te niho. Ko te rima. Whakamahia anō mā te whakamahi i ngā maihao waenganui mō ngā niho o raro. "Kei te tarai matou i nga pakitara o tetahi niho me tetahi atu niho me te tarai i nga kitakita mai i aua mata", e kii ana a Dr Meulener. Me noho pū tētahi koromatua i te wā e neke ana te koromatua ki runga, ki raro hoki, e hanga ana i te nekehanga o te miro. Waihoki, i te wā e horoi ana i ngā niho o raro, me noho tētahi maihao waenganui...
Ka whakaatuhia e te ataata a Dr Carlos Meulener, he taote niho no New Jersey,. E kī ana ia he hē te whakamahi a te nuinga o te iwi i te rākau mō ngā tau. Ka tūtohu kia whakamahi i tētahi nekehanga ki runga ki raro, kaua ki tua ki mua. E kī ana ko tana tikanga'kotahi meneti te horoi niho' te kī ki te hauora niho pai.
