Guest guest Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 You might want to check out dentalcleanse and ask some questions there. There are many people now getting root canals removed because of the dangers involved in them. I am one of those people and would have a tooth pulled before getting another root canal. Also simply look up root canals on google etc... there is tone of information on them and alternatives.

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 Kelly, There are 2 kinds of dentists: mechanics and gardeners. Mechanics - which is self-explanatory, and gardeners - who work with nature. Holistic dentists work with nature - and they get at the causes of patients' disease rather than just fix symptoms. George Meinig's book, The Root Canal Cover-Up EXPOSED, (I wrote the Forward to his book) suggests that doing root canal therapy is like playing Russian Roulette if your immune system is compromised. The dentist cleans, sterilizes, and fills the root canal (about 1 inch) and leaves about 3 miles of contaminated dentinal tubules to pass out toxins into your body - causing cavitations, etc. He and I agree that it takes judgment to condemn a tooth to extraction, because to do so creates other problems. This is a brief explanation - hope it helps you. Get in touch with me if you have other questions. Perhaps you might want to call me at 212-8784-4212 -NY time.
