Guest guest Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 Thank you Harald for this information, It's giving me more and more confidence that my RA is from bacteria,etc. Since I was in my late teens (I'm 60 now) I had/have pretty bad gingivitis. I would go to dentist every 3 months for cleaning, did dry brushing and even had surgery to clean under the gums. Every time I brush my teeth or floss, I spit out lots of blood. 2 weeks into AP (now on my 25th week) of course I was watching for less joint pain, however I did notice that the sink wasn't filled with blood from brushing. My gums have not bleed since. This is a first! I mentioned this to Dr. Sinnott on phone once, and he reaffirmed me that AP IS WORKING, and that now low doses of minocyklin are being used to treat gingivitis. On another note: someone just recommended to me to put drops of oregano oil on bottom of feet at night.....a very strong antibacterial/fungal etc. Anyone doing this? Today the sun is out and lightly snowing...very beautiful. I have 2 large windows in this room that I can sit and bring the beauty of the outside into the inside (and I get to stay warm!) A lovely day to all,Sally rheumatic Connection Between RA and Bacteria in Human Mouth and Intestine >Dear Group, There is a connection between RA and periodontal disease according to Gerald Weissmann, MD, MACR, director of the Biotechnology Study Center at NYU School of Medicine, New York.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Hi. Happy New Year everyone. Has anyone tried laser surgery for infected teeth as compared to removing teeth/implants for teeth issues? Any info on implants in regard to RA? Thanks, a healthy year with progress in all things to everyone, June On Dec 27, 2010, at 4:53 PM, mannasal@... wrote: > > Thank you Harald for this information, > It's giving me more and more confidence that my RA is from > bacteria,etc. Since I was in my late teens (I'm 60 now) I had/have > pretty bad gingivitis.
