Re: O/T -- root canal removed

June 6, 2008

Yes, it does. It seems to be poorly understood, but one cause is a systemic

problem, caused by mercury, lead & /or arsenic; it is not related to metal being

in the particular tooth that was removed. I think your dentist is doing the

right thing. On the other hand, to heal you will ultimately need to have the

bone debrided (the dead tissue removed). Some people have had to go through

this a number of times. I'd say, wait a while so you can chelate, then try it

again. If it doesn't work, wait a while longer...

(Luckily, my second time it worked. I had chelated for about a year and a half

by then. Nasty stuff, this. Have you seen the pictures at

http://www.maxillofacialcenter.com/? I think it's the osteonecrosis link;

that's a very worthwhile site. At one time I also found some pictures of

cavitations in the mouth, just as the skin is being pulled back. Pretty nasty!

I think it's there... If not, google " osteomyelitis (dental OR jaw) "

(without the quotes).)

Dave, do you know if this apply to cavitations that had no metal? I

have two cavitations, One where the molar was and one from a wisdom

tooth, both became dry sockets, which is probably why they didn't heal

right. My other wisdom teeth that were removed healed fine and show no

cavitations. I never had any root canals or mercury in the root tips

etc. In my case there was infection after extraction, and dry socket.

Oddly, my dentist was stumped when she looked at this cavitation, the

one molar I had removed became infected two days after extraction, it

was a horrible painful mess. I had to pack it with anesthetic, clove

oil gauze stuff for a few weeks for it to heal. Anyway, on the x ray,

you can see what look like bone cells that did not calcify. It's the

oddest thing. So there is no bone in the socket, but cells, that

appear to be osteoclasts (right word?). She said, for some reason it

started to heal up but my body didn't calcify it. So she felt my

ability to heal was too compromised to do the cavitation surgery at

that time. So we are waiting for some healing/chelation etc.
