Re: OT: Root Canal info from URL below

[Guest guest]

I remember once doing some research on root canals for one of my

teeth. I don't recall the websites or the doctors but the bottom

line is that I read over and over where bacteria can start to grow

where the root canal is done. The only way to prevent that would be

if the dentist could do an obsolutely perfect root canal which is not

possible. I am talking perfection on the God level.

I also remember reading where they said that there is a real danger

when bacteria develope in a root canal because the infection can

spread straight to the brain even resulting in death.

So in my opinion and based on your report, I fully agree root canals

are bad. Your better off having the tooth removed.

My son had a " baby root canal " on a molar at age 4 (before I did

research) and a year later it fell out. The tooth smelled really bad.

I'm so glad it fell out! Since then, I've had 3 extractions and all

of my mercury removed. When I was saving money for the work, I was on

three different rounds of anti-biotics because my teeth were so

infected. The anti-biotic worked like a pain reliever. As soon as I'd

start them, the horrible pain I was feeling went away. I am so

fortunate that I learned about root canals prior to visiting the

dentist. Of course, he was on the same page, so that helped. My

health was on a sharp decline, but now I feel normal. Also, when my

daughter was a baby, she injured her two front teeth. About 18 months

later, at age 3, one got loose and fell out (they had been dark). The

dentist pulled the one next to it, as it had a cavity and he said it

would look better anyway. She was like a different child. She was

already very bright, but things started coming out of her that were

over the top and insightful for her age. From one little tooth! It

was as if she had reached a level of clarity or something. These kind

of things helped get me in the dentist's chair after decades of

neglect. It was miserable, but very worth it.
