Fundamentals of a Humanistic Dentistry: A Key to the Knowledge of Man

by Claus Haupt. Volume 1
Hardback, full colour book

Fundamentals of a Humanistic Dentistry – A Key to the Knowledge of Man by Claus Haupt is a holistic, spiritually-oriented book on teeth and dentition that goes beyond conventional dental science. Instead of focusing solely on anatomy and clinical practice, it explores human teeth as expressive and formative organs that reflect deeper aspects of a person’s being and development.

The book presents teeth and dental structures from a holistic anthroposophic perspective, seeing them as suction organs that link the individual’s spiritual aspects with physical life. In this view, each person’s dentition — including alignment and anomalies — is a kind of formal language through which constitutional and karmic-developmental predispositions become visible. Understanding these underlying spiritual and soul-level causes is presented as a key to targeted, developmental therapy rather than mere mechanical correction.

Rather than being a general dental textbook, it’s a reflective study aimed at practitioners and learners interested in the interplay between human development, personality, and dental form, offering insight into how dental signs might be interpreted as part of the whole human being.
