Parched teeth

齿焦 〔齒焦〕 chǐ jiāo

Dry teeth. Parched teeth are attributed to damage to yīn humor. If the teeth are grimy, the condition is due to kidney vacuity and exuberant fire before stomach yīn is exhausted; otherwise it is attributable to major damage to stomach liquid, and desiccation of spleen-kidney yīn.
