Guest guest Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 Hi Bent, My biologic dentist says that root canalled teeth are basically gangrenous. Even the regular dentist who did the root canal said that they can get infected and cause trouble. The problem is that because they have removed the nerve, you won't feel any pain from any infection, so it's not easy to tell whether there is a problem. Teeth have many small channels or canals, and although they try to plug up all of them when they do the root canal, apparently it is very hard to plug up all of them. I am going to get mine pulled when I have my jaw cavatations cleaned out.

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 I had very bad problems with my root canals. Then I started EDTA IV chelation for lead. I found that EDTA is a very powerful anti biotic against gangrene ect. And the pain from my root canals disappeared.

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 I have hours of research on the subject, as I have been undergoing dental revision. My first biologic dentist said to pull the tooth. She is a Huggins protocol dentist. I didn't feel that was right, I mean, I need my teeth. they were like " you won't miss your tooth " and I'm like, I will!! In fact, I think it would be really hard on me to deal with emotionally right now. Anyway, I studied Mening (I'm not sure how to spell it) his book, which has a great interview on the Mercola website, and his book " root canal cover-up " discusses this. Well, after a whole book talking about the dangers of root canals, there was one option, Biocalex, or Endocalex, which is the new name. It is used extensively in Europe and has been for a long time. It expands, filling the tubules and hardens. It leaves a nearly sterile tooth. I read every bit of research I could find, and, yes, If you read research, you'll see the extracted teeth come out testing nearly sterile. Here's my thought, If we pull it, we'll need something there, so then we have to get a bridge, which puts other teeth at risk, the ones you have to cap next to the gap (one out of five will die after being crowned, I believe that is correct), an implant will put metal in your body, no teeth will disturb your ability to get your food chewed. Dentures are another option, but I'm going to put that off as long as I can. I know it may not be a perfect situation, but let's face it, nothing in life is perfect, we have to make the best decisions we can with what we have to deal with. If you have it pulled, you are also dealing with possible cavitations, teeth shifting, which could cause TMJ, lots to think about. Anyway, I just got my root canal redone with Biocalex, had to travel 4 hours each way for 2 trips to the endodontist, but I got it done and it's working out really well. I'm sure lots out there won't agree, and it's a choice everyone has to make,but I figure that the tooth material is more biocompatible than lots of other materials that I would have to replace it with and at 44, I wasn't up for a denture. I just want you all to not let a biologic dentist scare you into having it pulled when there is an option you may want to consider.
