We have had quite a
few articles recently describing how mercury in dentistry is toxic and should
be avoided but is it the only dental hazard that can create conditions
favorable to autoimmune diseases?
Unfortunately
No.
If you
suffer with a chronic diseases it is REALLY IMPORTANT to understand that a factor
in your illness could be a result of root canal surgery.
EVERY
YEAR about 25,000,000 root canal operations are in the United States alone. AND nearly every dentist and physician
is oblivious to the serious potential health risks this
operation
produces. It is important to understand that over 95% of all densities and
physicians do not understand this issue because they have avoided study of
important research that have been available now for OVER 100 YEARS!!
Fortunately
I had some early mentors like Dr. Tom Stone and Dr. Douglas Cook who taught me
this nearly 20 years ago.
But the
pioneer work in this area on the toxicity of root canals was actually done by
the Mayo’s Clinic and Dr. Weston Pr
ice
jointly back in about 1910.
Over a century
ago Dr. Weston A. Price, was known as the world’s greatest dentist he was a researcher
and his work was revered by both the dental and medical professions.
His
work took him around the world where he studied the teeth, diets and bones of
native populations living without the benefit of “modern food.”
He did
twenty-five years of careful, impeccable research and led a 60-man team of
researchers whose findings
rank
right up there with some of the greatest
medical
discoveries of the 20thcentury.
Unfortunately
they have been mostly
suppressed
Around
1900 Dr. Price has been treating root canal infections but became
suspicious
that these root canal teeth always remained infected. That thought
kept
preying on
his
mind haunting him each time a patient consulted him for
some
severe debilitating disease for which the medical profession had no
answer.
Then
one day he recommended a woman who had been wheel chair
bound
for six years have her root canal tooth extrac
ted
even though it looked
fine.
He then
implanted the tooth under the skin of a rabbit and the rabbit developed a
similar
crippling arthritis that was so severe he actually died from the infection
ten
days later. The patient also
immediately
recovered
from
her arthritis and did
not
even need a cane.
Dr.
Price came to learn that many chronic degenerative diseases can originate
from
root filled teeth. The most frequent were heart and circulatory diseases and
he
actually found 16 different causative bact
erial
agents for these.
In Dr.
Price’s time it was not easy to culture anaerobic bacteria with 1920s
technology.
Most of the bacteria reported by organized dentistry at that time
were
aerobes of unknown significance. Today, with DNA analysis available,
a
naerobic
bacteria (the dangerous kind) can be identified whether dead or alive
by the
presence of their telltale DNA signatures.
The
next most common diseases were those of the joints, arthritis and
rheumatism.
In third place
-
but
almost tied for second
-
were
diseases of the
brain
and nervous system. After that, any disease you can name might (and in
some
cases has) come from root filled teeth.
He
learned that primitive tribes with ideal nutrition and no processed foods had
perfect
teeth without cavit
ies or
gum disease and had no bone diseases. As soon
as
these native tribes adopted the food of the western “advanced” nations their
teeth
became deformed, full of cavities, gingivitis started, diabetes appeared and
they
developed bone diseases. It was obv
ious to
him
that
human degenerative
diseases
were fundamentally a nutritional problem.
He
discovered that it is mechanically impossible to sterilize a root canal tooth
No
matter what material or technique is used
-
the
root filling shrinks minutely,
perhaps
microscopically. Further and this is key
-
the
bulk of solid appearing
teeth,
called the dentin, actually consists of miles of tiny tubules.
