It sounds like a great idea, but unfortunately it also sounds like an

opportunity to give people work they don't need.

I have come across sites where there are a few dentists who will not

treat cavities, but instead teach their patients about their diets.

On one site a dentist said, " I have seen one case where the enamel

was badly eroded off all the front teeth. that was apparently

replaced while fasting " .

More....

In " Nature the Healer " , H. Richter wrote on page 385, " In my

practice, I have noted some

splendid instances of broken teeth growing back to their full length

without other aid than natural

food. However, I find that this is not generally believed. It may be

necessary for grownups to live for many years in Nature's way, before

they will be able to accomplish this feat. Their bloodstream must be

made vital. On the other hand, I know of men as old as seventy-five

years who have grown another set of teeth. "

In 1923, Dr. Herbert Shelton wrote, that he saw a man in his 60's

grow three new teeth without a

change in the man's mode of life. Dr. Herbert Shelton further

wrote, " In total inanition (starvation), the experimental animal is

deprived of all food and water. It is obvious that the animal will

not live as long when deprived of water as when receiving water. But

the reader will note that no changes occur in the teeth in

animals that are given water only until they starve to death. " Dr.

Herbert Shelton, further wrote, " In the pyorrhea that 'four out of

five' are said to have, we see inflammation, loosening of the teeth,

necrosis of the jaw, and even falling out of the teeth. In numerous

cases that we have cared for, the gum inflammation has subsided, the

ulcers have healed, pus formation has ceased and the loosened teeth

have become firmly fixed in their sockets, and all of this has

occurred while the patient was fasting. "

Rene Beresford writes, " The teeth are bones. Bones do heal and

regenerate under favorable conditions. Even the enamel of the teeth,

it seems is able to repair itself, as I have been able to demonstrate

on a broken tooth of my own. Self-restoration of teeth with cavities

in them have been reported by dentists within the last few years. "

Dr. Virginia V. Vetrano further writes, " Disease of the gums and

periodontal tissues heal, while

fasting, and teeth become firmer in their sockets...Abscesses will

often absorb while fasting, but it

will usual take a lengthy fast. "

Dr. O. Nara, D.D.S. writes, " Teeth can heal themselves...Early

caries (cavities) can be medically reversed; the body's natural self-

regenerating ability can restore degraded enamel to perfect health! "

Dr. Sogannes, D.D.S. writes, " There is nothing sacred about the

original enamel surface...within certain limits, the enamel is

capable of fairly rapid organic recoating and remineralization, when

favorably exposed to salivary contacts. "

My thoughts are happy ones, that it will be alot easier to get Gaby to go

for air than a drill. I'm going to look for this around here. I think that

sounds much less invasive, and anytime one can cut out unnecessary

anesthetics it is a plus. Also, I would think it is less likely to cause the

little cracks(don't know if that was the exact word) mentioned.

Hey Katja...Gaby now eats very crispy bacon and halibut. His rash is

completely gone since cutting out legumes/grains... though my mom gave him

Kashi and he got congested again. Dealing with her is like running up the

down escalator.

Take care,

Michele
