Dental issues - opinions please :)

[Guest guest]

Soooooo, I've had issues with a back molar for a while now and knew it needed to

be taken care of (and planned to shortly, I swear!). I'm now told it needs a

root canal. In light of Weston A. Price and others' work on the subject, my

thought is " nope, tooth is coming out " . I've already lost 3 teeth, don't want

to lose another (especially since it's a back molar and I can't get a bridge

since there isn't another tooth behind it. Also, implants are a no-go for me,

no more metal in my mouth!). But I do have other dental problems and I'm

leaning towards cutting my losses with this tooth. Have it extracted and put

the money I would use for a root canal towards the other teeth that need work so

hopefully I won't lose another.

BTW, megadosing with Vit C and homeopathy have gone a long way in helping with

this tooth in the meantime. I believe the nerve is still alive. Does anyone

else have experience with this? I'm wondering, if the natural methods can help

with healing, is it possible to get to a point where the tooth would be ok with

a crown? If so, how long would I need to wait to see significant healing?

Thanks bunches,
