LRC Podcast #3: Was the Tooth Fairy Breastfed?
09/06/2007
12.9 Mb 26.58 mins Dr Yvonne Luxford: Was the Tooth Fairy Breastfed? Lactation Resource Centre Seminar for Health Professionals "Milk, Health and Love". Recorded 1st March 2007 Geelong. Dr Yvonne Luxford has been researching and teaching in the field of the history and philosophy of medicine for the past 14 years, recently investigating the relationship between breast feeding and infant tooth decay, with this investigation providing the basis of her PhD thesis. Recognising the conflict between the WHO advice to mothers to breast feed for a minimum of two years, and the advice of many dentists that demand and night breast feeding caused the same damage as putting the baby to bed with a bottle, Yvonne delved into the background to the dental claims - both scientific and cultural. Dr Luxford will also be speaking at the Hot Milk conference August 2007
