Guest guest Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 do you have a dental school in your area? we have one here in south texas, and I had a root canal done about 7-8 yrs ago. I still need to get the crown as the same thing can happen to mine. most dentists wanted $600 and up for a crown, but the school does them for about $150. I go out there for most of my dental treatments. sp am planning on the crown this year. they are so much better than private dentists (I think because they are being watched closely and graded). dental schools only charge for materials, nothing else. private dentists can charge anything they want.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 Crowns can be pretty toxic in themselves. The 'stainless steel' crowns have quite a bit of nickel in them which is closely linked to many cancers...and you are just holding together a dead tooth which should not be in your mouth. Weston A Price himself proved the toxicity of root canals by removing them in diseased people and implanting them under the skin of a rabbit. The rabbit would then contract the same disease that the person had and it was all because of the root canal. Please read the following link. http://www.whale.to/v/huggins.html The dental industry is dangerous water to tread in and can really ruin your life if you don't do your research. It can cost more to have things done properly, but whats more important than health? - > > > > do you have a dental school in your area? > we have one here in south texas, and I had a root canal done about 7-8 yrs ago. > I still need to get the crown as the same thing can happen to mine. > most dentists wanted $600 and up for a crown, but the school > does them for about $150. > I go out there for most of my dental treatments. > sp am planning on the crown this year. > they are so much better than private dentists > (I think because they are being watched closely and graded). > dental schools only charge for materials, nothing else. > private dentists can charge anything they want. > > Lin > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 In your understanding, other than totally removing the teeth, are there any other options that is not harmful on the long run. If removing teeth is the only good option, is there any suggestion to cope with chewing efficiently for life?

Guest guest Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 I first read it in the following book by Hal Huggings " Uninformed Consent : The Hidden Dangers in Dental Care " and I think there is a type of implant that is an alternative if its a visible tooth in the front, but I can't say that I remember more, but it is in that book. If your only missing one or two teeth chewing shouldn't be that affected, but I can't say for sure. I hope it works out for you, - > > > > > > > > > > > > do you have a dental school in your area? > > > we have one here in south texas, and I had a root canal done about > > 7-8 yrs ago. > > > I still need to get the crown as the same thing can happen to > mine. > > > most dentists wanted $600 and up for a crown, but the school > > > does them for about $150. > > > I go out there for most of my dental treatments. > > > sp am planning on the crown this year. > > > they are so much better than private dentists > > > (I think because they are being watched closely and graded). > > > dental schools only charge for materials, nothing else. > > > private dentists can charge anything they want. > > > > > > Lin > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
