re: is this considered a neurotoxin?

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I went to an endodonist this week for pulpitis problem in a couple

of teeth. One of the tests he did was to apply a cryogenic chemical to

make my teeth cold. It's called ethyl chloride. I'm wondering if this

is a neurtoxin. I'm reading about it on Wikipedia and a dental school

website.

I have multiple chemical sensitivities after our house was moldy

and we had to move.

Anyone heard about this used in dentistry diagnostics? It can't be a

good thing to have that applied to your teeth just to see if the pulp

in your tooth hurts worse.

Does anyone know about this? I think I need to find a dentist that

doesn't use chemicals like that.
