I appreciate your desire to offer to help in this situation. But the road to Hell is paved with good intentions. We must be careful because accurate Safety Data on most essential oils can not be found in the majority of the Aromatherapy publications out and about. There are LD-50 levels of toxicity and dermatology data in in Martin Watt's safety manual, " Plant Aromatics " http://www.aromamed ical.com/ paper.html .. it is probably the most accurate and valuable safety manual in print now. This manual along with his Essential Oils Monographs (on the same link) provides an enormous amount of accurate and important information on safety. However, we will NOT find Martin or any other knowledgeable practitioner of alternative- complementary therapies recommending use of essential oils to deal with a tooth abscess! A tooth abscess can result in death if not properly treated!!! Untreated abscesses can penetrate bone and soft tissue ... skin and muscles, etc., and can spread throughout the body. There is a long list of medical problems that can be caused by an untreated abscess. > I have a book about therapy with ESSENTIAL OIL by Julia Lawless .. in > that book said if abscesses we can use essential oil of bergamot, chamomile > (German & Roman) , eucalyptus blue gum, galbanum, helichrysum, lavandin, > lavender (spike & true) , lemon, mastic, niaouli, clary sage, tea tree, thyme, > turpentine .. if u have one of that essential oil, just tell me, i will give > u the safety data & how to apply it to u, because every essential oil have > their safety data .. DON'T USE IT BEFORE U KNOW THE SAFETY DATA .. Hope can > help & u can get well soon .. > Best regards .. > Generally speaking, the level of knowledge on this News Group regarding safe use of Essential Oils is far beyond what one would call Elementary .. but in some cases we have folks who have just enough knowledge to be dangerous to themselves and to others when they make recommendations that are not sound! Most folks are aware of the existence of the Lawless book and the many other such novels that are out and about .. most of which are totally hypothetical and confuse the therapeutic properties of aromatic plants with the oils extracted from those plants. Most of the AT novels will claim that a laundry list of EO can be successfully used to treat a laundry list of ailments .. but they rarely get into the nitty gritty of how it should be done .. and in almost all cases the claims are simply regurgitation' s of previously unreferenced incorrect information from previously published unreferenced novels. What I am saying is that .. the lion's share of these recommendations should be filed under the heading of Dangerous Bovine Excrement! Back in 1995, when I was learning a bit about AT, I bought many of these publications .. sometimes having a big library can make us feel that we are knowledgeable. Later I learned the proper use for most of those pubs .. they are ideal for putting under a table leg when it is shorter than the other legs. ;-) Owning a publication that discusses use of essential oils does not make one qualified to make valid, safe recommendations on many things and even those who are experienced pracitioners will not even consider making recommendations on problems that can be life threatening. The fact that it is written in an AT novel means exactly nothing. Some good recommendations would be .. walk softly and learn the pros and cons of the alternative- complementary treatment business and even then still be careful when recommending use of EO as a CURE rather than as a complementary treatment .. and .. do not try to use the recommendations found in the AT novels to treat someone you care for who has a serious problem .. especially your children. My recommendation to the person who has a tooth abcess .. you DO need help but NOT from ANYONE on this News Group! Get yourself to a dentist NOW .. if cash flow is an issue now, think what the cost can be if the infection spreads. In this happens, as a minimum you will probably be hospitalized .. as a minimum! Good luck .. take care of your own health .. and y'all keep smiling. :-) Butch .. http://www.AV- AT.com <http://www.av- at.com/> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
