Guest guest Posted June 3, 2004 Report Share Posted June 3, 2004 Homeopathy works very well for dental health by balancing the entire body. There are comples remedies out there but classical can give some outstanding results. I am currently treating 2 of my own patients and advising a dentist who has a heart problem and doesn't desire the root canal to cure an abcessed tooth. I have cured my own abcess tooth in the 80's with it as well. While I am on the dental topic a few years ago I developed severe TMJ problems soon after the abcess pain began. I actually think I through the jaw out trying to compensate for the tooth pain but the dental profession mildly agreed and said I needed to check out an oral surgeon and or an orthodontist. I went to both. Both said I needed whatever modality they offered but no guarantees. The oral surgeon was willing to break my jaw and realign it properly. The orthodontist said two years of braces would work but both said no guarantees the treatment would work. The point is just like when people come to us we tell them how we can help them. It should be the persons choice which modality to use without fear. They told me very big scare stories so I would do the suregery. They both said to reduce stress in my life. I got rid of my ex and while in homeopathy school we took my case and both the TMJ and the abcess cleared completely. It was also noted at that time something I had forgotten about. I had my wisdom teeth removed 15 years before. I had 5 wisdom teeth and all of them were under all of my other molars and the fifth one growing upwards into the zygomatic process. They took out 2 molars on all sides to get out the wisdom teeth and then sewed the molars back in. I had over 160 stitches. I had a great surgeon and out of all the test people they studies (military study where they followed up for 15 years) I was the only one that kept all of the molars they took out and replaced. Many of them lost them in the next 5 years. I still have all of my teeth except the wisdom teeth. I was told tyhat for every tooth you remove it cuts 18 months off of your life. I can't quote the study a corpsman told it to me. However they removed my jaw to make it easier to get the teeth out. Something that changed the alignment and I believe the meridians were affected. The nerves grew back in different places than where dentists were taught to inject anesthetics. Now I would like to see if that has produced other changes on a TCM level. In my practice every case might require a different remedy. However getting alkaline is very important. Acid can help keep the disease process going. Lots of green veggies and green drinks can help some. That's another topic.

Sharp pains between ears and teeth, decay by gum line. Apply right on the sensitive area. Also listed for enuresis- bedwetting, earache, aching eyes Even if it's not TCM you might give this a try. If it doesn't work you can always get your dentures. However for bridges it usally creates an electrical stimulation and traps food and acids causing what4ever tooth it touches to become decayed and then one by one you lose you teeth and get new bridges at quite a big cost. Better to try and keep your own teeth as long as possible. Sunny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
