Root canal

[Guest guest]

I have successfully resolved over a dozen cases where the dentist said

a root canal was desired and the patient no longer required

one.

Three cases had to get the root. All treatments were different

tailored to each person.

I used homeopathy, acupuncture and in one

case Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)

One dramatic case with a

tooth abscess with swollen gums and cheek I gave silica 6C TID for 3 days.

When it erupted he reported over a cup of pus came out. This patient also

had heart problems, diabetes and a slew of other ailments and the dentist

was not too anxious to do the root canal to begin with.

One the pus

was coming out and appeared to have stopped without resolving completely

(let the first remedy complete its action before giving another dose or

remedy.) I gave him 30C hepar sulph which cleared more of the

infection.

Once all swelling was gone and the pus and blood was no

longer apparent I gave calendula 12 to be used as a mouthwash and in a

water pik oral irrigation device.

Not only did that abscess resolve

but during the hepar tx a small boil came up on the other side of his

mouth and resolved in 4 days.

The last report I received from his

dentist was his gums and teeth are healthy and he no longer needs the root

canal.

Some common modalities I used in almost all cases

were:

Nutrition

 

 

& #65533;

Many people with periodontal disease have been found to be deficient in

CoQ10.

Supplementing with this nutrient should be beneficial in treating this

disease.

 

 

 

& #65533;

In addition, the infection mentioned above seems to affect those with folic

acid deficiencies more so than those who aren & #65533;t deficient. Because of

this

fact, gum disease may be an indicator of a folic acid deficiency. To help

eliminate gum disease and its risk factor for stroke, take 800-5,000 mcg of

folic acid daily.

 Grapefruit seed extract (GSE) Grapefruit

seed extract is nature & #65533;s

best antibiotic, and is very helpful in fighting oral bacteria. Add a drop of

GSE to your toothpaste and brush at least two times a day.

 

 

3) Hydrogen peroxide Take two capfuls of 3% hydrogen peroxide and

swish it around your mouth and spit out. Do this every evening for a week or

until you notice improved gum health, then only once a week for

maintenance. In

addition, to help knock out the bacteria mentioned above that may be causing

periodontal disease, put enough hydrogen peroxide to cover the bristles of

your

toothbrush in a glass and keep the brush in it. Change the peroxide

weekly.

 

 

4) Vitamin C Take 1-3 grams of natural vitamin C daily to help

build

healthy tissue. Vitamin C is also a powerful antioxidant that helps fight

infection.

 

 

5) Calcium A study showed that people getting less

than 500

mg of calcium daily had a 54% greater chance of having gum disease than those

getting 800 mg or more. So add a calcium supplement to your daily preventive

regimen.
