Guest guest Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Hi Shari, You are correct. All doctors, dentists, chiropractors and what not have a vested interest in seeing you not well. There is no money to be made off of healing your clients or giving them the truth about their own bodies. I am not saying that all doctors and other professionals are this way but the majority of them are. Such a shame to because even if they did give all of the clients the total truth they would still have more business then they could handle as there are so many people out there who desire not to be responsible for themselves for whatever reason.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 As a person who dealt with very similar circumstances a few years ago - I hate to say it but sometimes you just have to let go. I lost my teeth to injury - Well I married a not very nice man at 19 and by age 20 I was divorced, every tooth I had was permanently loose, and my jaw had been cracked so many times that on Xray it looks like a spiderweb, even today some 30 years later I have been told that one good hit to my jaw or cheekbones and they would shatter because of all the previous injury. From age 20 until 38 I was like you and fought to save my teeth - one abscess after another all the root canals and caps and drilling and antibiotics and one infection after another. I finally had to give up and had all my upper teeth and most of lower teeth fully extracted. I have a full upper denture and a partial lower. I still have 7 of my own teeth on the bottom and 10 years later my health and well being have greatly improved - my body had a chance to heal with no more infections and drugs and everything else I went thru - still have the 7 lower teeth and have never had a problem with anything related since then, and best of all no more pain. My late husband had bad teeth due mostly to neglect and when he decided to try and get them fixed up and repaired he went thru extensive dental work with scrapings and cleanings and caps and crowns and the whole bit only to end up with plaque buildup on some already weak and damaged heart valves. I am not trying to scare anyone or say that dentures are the answer but sometimes you have to weigh the good and the bad, and my choice was to rid my body of recurrent infections and the bad things that go along with them. But that was before I knew the great and helpful people on this list and if I had all those years ago maybe things could have been different, but I have no regrets.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Very true , Depending on the extent of damage, sometimes nothing and I do mean nothing will save you or your teeth. This goes for most any distressed or diseased part of the body. In your case too much damage to the jaw and cheek bones that would not heal properly with modern medical methods. Surprisingly enough, the body will heal other areas and work on rebuilding other areas of itself before it will the teeth. The body can survive without teeth. It can't survive really well without other organs or with diseased organs. I'm not saying this was your case or even that this is the case for you Carol. Just something to chew on, pun intended.
