Guest guest Posted May 30, 2002 Report Share Posted May 30, 2002 Wow, , if both of our teeth have been damaged by achalasia, I'll bet there are many others out there with the same problem. I asked my dentist if she thought that I could get more help from insurance because of my medical condition, and she said she did not think so. I really do all I can to keep my teeth super clean at all times. I brush after everything I eat, floss, rinse at night with flouride, avoid too much sugar. It makes me tired just thinking about it!! Anyway, I would be curious to know if anyone elses teeth have suffered from this disease as well. -Kari --- Kev Crocombe <kev@...> wrote: > Ah - interesting that your teeth are damaged too - > my dentist despairs > at mine - and they are pretty much destroyed by this > acid action - which > makes me a bit fed up - I don't really want dentures > - but its got to > the point where theres hardly any tooth left to > fill.

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2002 Report Share Posted May 30, 2002 Yeah - probably - I've been brushing 3 times a day and using mouthwash (at my dentist's behest) - but doesn't seem to help much. I guess that taking something alkali at night might help - munch on a bit of cheese after last brush - might counteract the acid - but alas it'd cause me to choke all night long - so I'm not going to try it myself!

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2002 Report Share Posted June 14, 2002 You can drink water and add potassium pills and whatever other nutrients gaterade has. I have done that from the beginning and water will not hurt you teeth. Pat Milk and juice both have sugars. Teeth Mermaid --- Thanks so much for the info. Sure wish I had known this 3 years ago as I would not have kept my trusty Gatorade at my side. OK so to help me keep the teeth I still have could you tell me if there is anything other than plain water that would be safe? Skim milk? What about fruit juices as I suspect they have a lot of natural sugar? Thanks again. Cyndee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2003 Report Share Posted July 23, 2003 Kev, Thanks for all the info. If it ever starts raining down here I'll stay in a few days and research it all. (Unless I hang out on the beach and wait for lightning.) BTW, what I saw in my friend's tooth was everything but the enamel. The cavity had fully filled in by itself, but there was a small dimple where the enamel had not regrown. Of couse, that was several years ago, perhaps it has by now. After I started eating mostly raw and vegan my fillings started popping out on their own. Even had a root canal post disappear. When you eat strictly raw (foods with living life force) you get an incredible amount of energy. I would imagine these devices and the lightning produce a similar effect.

I use a toothpick usually. Brush my teeth once a day when I get up unless I'm going to be with someone wonderful or I've eaten something disgusting then I'll do an extra brush. My teeth are strong and my gum line is mostly 1s (best according to the dentist). My dental hygienist says I have a very clean mouth and must floss often. I allow her her delusion. I haven't had a cavity since I've been on this diet (6 years). I drink a lot of water and rinse my mouth often. I used to have bleeding, hanging gums and loose teeth but not anymore. I think being on this diet and having to really chew food (not like processed food) like meat and raw or slightly cooked vegetables has improved my gums and teeth. It just keeps going back to the diet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was suffering from bleeding gums. I went to the dentist back in January and she said I didn't have gum disease, but my gums had a lot of tartar which caused the bleeding. So, she cleaned my teeth, but, my gums still bled, it seemed like it got WORSE and my gums were swollen in certain areas, I also has a chipped tooth pulled, that area was very sensitive. I tried different things, irrigation (which worked, but I'm too lazy to keep pulling that thing out, and until you get your gums strong enough, it looked like a bloodbath in my sink). So, I'm a member of Chet Day's newsletter and he kept raving about this " tooth soap " . Well, my teeth weren't getting any better, so I researched it and after 7 months of putting it off bought some. I've been using it for about 2 weeks and the first 3 days, I didn't notice anything. Usually, when I woke, my teeth was covered in a slimy film, and it would be blood spots on my pillow from my gums. (Sorry, to gross you out) After the 3rd day, the film was gone and I had no blood on my pillow. Biting an apple or using a toothpick was out of the question unless I wanted to look like I was filming an vampire movie. I ate an apple with out bleeding. The sensitivity in my gums where she pulled my wisdom tooth is gone. Basically it's just soap, ($35.99) for a 3 month supply, a tooth tip book (good read), one free question coupon, and a newsletter membership. I read the ingredients and it's good stuff, (no glycerin, fluoride) I probably could make it myself. I left it the tooth soap at work and, since I threw out all my tooth paste I had to use something. According to the book, any so you can tolerate (except liquid) is ok. I buy my son tea tree oil soap for his skin from the health food store. I used it for a few days, and got the same results, didn't taste bad all for $17 CHEAPER. ( her soap comes in 2 flavors, it's ok, but death to your taste buds if you swallow it, it is non- toxic) BTW, toothpaste with fluoride is POISONOUS. Check out the link if you want more info, I learned alot. If you are having gums issues or just want to keep you teeth healthy, order the soap to get the book and other things, then afterwards, buy or make your own. For those interested I will let you know the brand of soap I get. I'm embarrassed to say, I don't know the brand name, as long as I've been using it. The link explains more details, I tried to keep this note as short as possible.

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 Hi all, I'm new to this group. Forgive me please, If I violate some protocol that I haven't lurked long enough to notice. I began rinsing my mouth with Colloidal Silver 6 or 8 months ago. (You can make your owm with 3 nine volt batteries, some silver, and a glass of distilled water, it's easy). Since then, I've forgotten what sores in my mouth feel like. The stuff is amazing. I've also found Colloidal Gold to be quite benneficial. If you have time, and the interest, here are 3 links to follow (They don't go to advertisements, just other groups where people are exchanging information about the colloids I mentioned...) http://www.silverlist.org cg_exchange CG_exchange2 charlie > > Hi, > > A while back I asked if anyone knew anything about bleeding gums.

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2004 Report Share Posted October 12, 2004 I've been doing it with some success for about a month. I started out with several aching teeth, gum inflammation in 4 places, and a sense of a cavity in one location, silver/mercury fillings flaking out in a couple of places. After a month of immunics 6-8x daily, I have no pain, gum inflammation in only 1 place, and a lessened sense of a cavity. My protocol: Remove viruses from all bodies Remove pathologies from all bodies Remove all pathologies as precursors to dental problems from all bodies Remove all 'bad' bacteria from all bodies Remove all dental decay bacteria from all bodies Remove all dental caries Remove all gum and dental inflammation Remove all pain/sensitivity from gums & teeth Remove all leftover damage of any kind from teeth and gums Install in gums and teeth radiantly healthy tissue Install radiantly healthy new dental tissue in former cavities. Then I go on to whatever else is up. I'm imaging the cavities filling in with new tissue. Also using toothpaste with myrrh and bee-propolis, the first of which is supposed to be anti-bacterial, the second of which is rumored to help regrow dental enamel. Like I said, this seems to be working for me. -- Teeth <html><body> <tt> <BR> My response: <BR> <BR> Test thru the phone book far a dentist.<BR> <BR> The e-mail: Has anyone ever tried this with restoring teeth??<BR> <BR> Or at the very least removing infection and decay causing bacteria??<BR> <BR> Michalski<BR> Santa , CA<BR> <BR> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michalski Santa , CA I had several 20 + year old fillings replaced last year because they were cracked and decaying underneath so when the familiar aching and sensitivity began in a tooth with one of the few remaining old fillings a couple of months ago I started to do immunics on it. I specifically removed dental caries and all bacteria and decay and installed " superb dental health! " I also scheduled a dentist appointment for my regular cleaning and check up. My appointment was this past week. I had x-rays and all and walked out of the office with a clean bill of dental health. They could find no damage to the filling or the tooth and there were no signs of decay! As I drove home I realized that the sensitivity and aching hadn't happenend for a while. I test that I cured my tooth! Two of my 3 small children have dental decay and we have been sporadically working on them.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2004 Report Share Posted November 19, 2004 Hi , I know I am a little late responding. I have not been able to read my immunic emails lately but now I can and I plan to caught and read all 500 that I have in my inbox. I always leave reading these emails feeling better than before I read them. I have never tried to restore a tooth but I was traveling once felt a tooth ache coming up. I did some immunics and at some point I moved my energy around that tooth until it felt as if there was some energy spiral moving around and around that tooth. The ache left and has not returned for months now. Melvin *** Non-Public: For Internal Use Only *** Teeth My response: Test thru the phone book far a dentist.

Guest guest Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 could it be the sugar in the Gatorade - I don't drink it because it makes me ill, and the citric acids effect the bonding agent on my clear braces and I kept popping brackets off. But there does seem to be a lot of sugar in it and I have had two check ups at the dentist and haven't had any problems with cavities (tho I can't get x-rays until my braces come off!) I'll hopefully have them off soon and might be disappointed when I get x-rays, but so far so good. I also brush my teeth every time I eat, and with the MGB, we know how often that is...about 5-6 times a day for me! Plus at bed time and when I first get up - I need to take stock in Crest!! LOL Sorry if I'm not much help - just thought I'd chime in with my experiences and what I think it may be (strictly my opinion and nothing scientific to back it up!) Good luck finding the solution! Keep me posted - I may be needing a more " official " answer too if I have a bunch of cavities when I finally get x-rays taken! Smiles!! Michele in Mid- MO 8/3/04 390/235/???

Guest guest Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 My dentist felt that Gatorade is hard on the teeth because of all the sugar in it. perhaps that has had it's effect. Suzanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 I don't have more decay, but I have a LOT more plaqwue. The dental tech always used to comment how my teeth stayed so clean - she hasn't told me that the last few years since mgb!!! Dr. R - is there a connection? It will be interesting to see how many people do! aka TeacherGator 7/20/00 283 / 127 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Funny you should mention cavities. I had only had one cavity in my adult life until the MGB. I had 2 my last check up so was pretty shocked. Hope it doesn't continue! Gretchen 270/128 MGB 8/20/03 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 I don't drink Gatorade and haven't since after the six months and I've had 2 cavities and I think I might have one more. I need to make an appointment to find out. I drink almost exclusively water so I haven't figured out the reason yet. Gretchen in Ca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 I wanted to chime in here and say that yes, I have had problems with my teeth in the past year (I am 3 1/2 years post-op) and NO, I have never drank the gatorade. I never could tolerate the gatorade, so I have never drank any kind of drinks....just water. So for some of us, the gatorade is not a factor. My dentist seems to think that because the MGB puts us in a state of mal-nutrition, that it affects the teeth, just like people who are malnourished are affected in third world countries. And yes, I have been and still am faithful about taking my vitamins. I think the surgery does affect our teeth eventually, so my advice to everyone else is...be sure to get dental check-ups twice a year and insist on plenty of x-rays. In the last 6 months I have had about 6 cavities and am now awaiting having a root canal and a crown on one tooth. It is very expensive, too! That's my 2 cents....for what it's worth!

Guest guest Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 It is ironic that you posted this message. I went to the dentist last week and they discovered two cavities side by side. I am 32 and have had one filling my whole life and that was when I was a kid. I do not drink gatorade anymore, so I don't believe that is the connection. I did give birth to twin girls if February and I tend to think that may have been a contributing factor. July 10 will be my 5 year mgb anniversary. in Texas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
