Is American Dentistry Killing Us?...

Opinion by Consumer Advocate Tim Bolen

Is American Dentistry killing us? Probably. There are certainly good reasons circulating around the campfires to believe so. It's time, I believe, for the North American Health Freedom Movement to focus on Dentistry, and its problems, because what happens in the mouth effects the whole body.

I believe that the American Dental Association (ADA), as the primary representative of Dentistry, is in "siege mode," meaning that their Modus Operandi, these days, seems more defensive of position than promotional of healthy Dentistry.

Why? Because, I think, they are defending, like the tobacco industry did for years, untenable positions. In fact, in my opinion, American Dentistry, as an industry, is far more deadly than tobacco ever was - and I'll tell you why I think so.

 

(1) American Dentistry's official position on Mercury Amalgams.

If you listen to the nonsense spewed out of conventional dentistry, you hear, from them, that the only safe place to store the deadly toxin mercury is in the teeth. The stories they make up to bolster this claim are ludicrous.

Mercury is OFFICIALLY mega-dangerous before it is installed in the teeth, and is OFFICIALLY mega-dangerous when it is being removed from the teeth. But, according to Dental spokesperson Robert Baratz MD. DDS. PhD, it is perfectly safe while in the teeth - Never mind that University scientists outright laugh at Baratz's claims - he, and Dentistry in general, stick to their statements.

Two thirds of North American Dentists still install Mercury Amalgams. Mercury leaches out from the teeth into the body causing serious health problems. For information on this issue, there is a very good article detailing this problem called "The Dental amalgam Issue - A Terrible Sin Against Humanity."

 

(2) Cavitations - Dentistry's officially ignored MAJOR health problem...

Susan Stockton MA writes, what I think, is the best article for the layman, about the "Cavitation Issue." It is clear and concise, and written from the patient's viewpoint. In her article called "JAWBONE CAVITATIONS: Infarction, Infection & Systemic Disease" she makes the issue simple, and understandable. You need to read it. Below is a sample:

"Ischemic osteonecrosis (bone death due to poor blood supply) is a disease of the entire skeleton – i.e., it can affect any bone in the body. It is best known as a hip condition, and yet it is actually more common in the jawbone, though unacknowledged as such by mainstream medicine and dentistry.

A jawbone cavitation is simply a hollow space or pocket in the bone. It is not readily visible to the eye and often causes no local discomfort, though it can be the hidden cause of facial pain syndromes (hence one of its names, NICO – Neuralgia Inducing Cavitational Osteonecrosis). The chief initiating factor is trauma to the jaw, often brought on by standard dental treatment."

Of danger to North Americans is the ADA's official position that "Cavitations do not exist," an idea that denies basic science and years worth of teaching in Dental schools. I suspect that their position may have a lot to do with the section written below.

 

(3) Root Canals - Festering Death Modules...

To properly understand the idea of "root canals" we must first make a comparison. A "root canal" is the process of removing the nerve tissue to a dead, or dying tooth, so that you don't feel the pain. Thank God that Heart Surgeons don't think the same way as Dentists. Imagine going to your MD with chest pains and having them say "No problem, we'll just go in and cut out the nerves to the heart, and your pain will go away."

Uhhmm?

Thank God we don't let Dentists deal with brain tumors, broken arms and legs, bullet wounds, or depression.

One of the originators of "root canals" George Meinig DDS, in a startling interview, tells the truth about root canals. He says:

"Yes, a high percentage of chronic degenerative diseases can originate from root filled teeth. The most frequent were heart and circulatory diseases and he found 16 different causative agents for these. The next most common diseases were those of the joints, arthritis and rheumatism. In third place - but almost tied for second - were diseases of the brain and nervous system. After that, any disease you can name might (and in some cases has) come from root filled teeth."

I read somewhere that "root canals" are a three trillion dollar business, so I don't expect official Dentistry to give them up willingly.

There are those that say that "root canals" are a major cause of "Cavitations..." above.

 

(4) Flouride in our water - One of the biggest scams foisted on Planet Earth...

The "fluoride issue" is explained in detail on the Fluoride Action Network webpage. There you can sign up for Paul Connett's excellent free newsletter on the subject.

But, to get the gist of the issue from someone not involved in the fight, go read the article written by Devvi Kidd called "GERMANS & RUSSIANS USED FLUORIDE TO MAKE PRISONERS STUPID & DOCILE."

Kidd says, quoting other authoritative research:

"It is a matter of record that sodium fluoride has been used for behavior control of populations. In an "Address in reply to the Governor's Speech to Parliament," [Victorian Hanstard, August 12, 1987, Nexus, Aug/Sept 1995], Mr. Harley Rivers Dickinson, Liberal Party Member of the Victorian Parliament for South Barwon, Australia, made a statement on the historical use of fluorides for behavior control.

"Mr. Dickinson reveals that, "At the end of the Second World War, the United States Government sent Charles Elliot Perkins, a research worker in chemistry, biochemistry, physiology and pathology, to take charge of the vast Farven chemical plants in Germany. While there, he was told by German chemists of a scheme which had been worked out by them during the war and adopted by the German General Staff. This scheme was to control the population in any given area through mass medication of drinking water. In this scheme, sodium fluoride will in time reduce an individual's power to resist domination by slowly poisoning and narcotising a certain area of the brain, and will thus make him submissive to the will of those who wish to govern him. Both the Germans and the Russians added fluoride to the drinking water of prisoners of war to make them stupid and docile."

 

(5) The organized conspiracy to attack those who try to call attention to the problems above...

North America is known for its promotion of innovation in all aspects of society except one - health care.

In North America, health care has developed into a war. On one side is the status quo, called "medicine." On the other is "health." The two are far from the same. The American public, with their buying habits, is rejecting "medicine" in favor of "health," and despite massive drug marketing campaigns, and brutal raids against competitors to drugs (supplements, electro-medicine, oxygen therapies) by the Big Pharma controlled US Food & Drug Administration (FDA), "medicine" is being sidelined.

It is no secret, in North America, that an organization exists whose primary function is to murderously attack innovators in health care - literally burying them with venom, hatred, lies, and misinformation. It's been going on for years. The group calls themselves the "quackbusters." No studies have ever been done to determine how much suffering and death they have caused - yet.

The "quackbusters" are something of a cottage-industry. It is a money making operation that makes mega-millions, if not mega-billions, for its client base - conventional medicine and dentistry.
