Non-toxic Dental Care

Are Teeth Worth Losing Your Health Over?

Frank Jerome, D.D.S., - author of a book called "Tooth Truth" states in his introduction, "This book is a warning to every person that there is much danger every time they enter a dental office." The dangers include almost every aspect of dentistry, from treatments recommended to the materials used.

Dr. Jerome states, "It is common knowledge among dentists that over 95 percent of all dental treatments are optional." Therefore, the patient has to have the information to discern which of these treatments might be beneficial and which might not - or may even be harmful.

For most people, the normal course of action is to accept a dentist's recommendations, have the treatment done. Without the knowledge of how a particular treatment impacts us ten years later we cannot make an informed decision as to whether or not it is wise to have a particular treatment in the first place.

For example, if patients knew that crowning a tooth increases the probability of needing a root canal later, they may opt against this procedure. Dr. Jerome explains how damaging it is to remove all of a tooth's enamel in order to crown a tooth. He states that twenty percent of all crowned teeth die. Once that happens, most dentists will recommend a root canal.

Instead of having a tooth crowned, Dr. Jerome suggests either a composite filling or an onlay. An onlay is bonded to the top of the tooth and allows more of the enamel to remain intact. An onlay is far less damaging to the tooth than a crown, yet dentists are less likely to suggest this option. Dentists are taught that they need to "do more crowns to increase practice profitability."

In fact, the vast majority of dentists don't seem to take into account the toxicity of the treatment being recommended. This is particularly apparent in the continued use of mercury in fillings. Dr. Jerome explores the use of mercury in dentistry and discusses its toxicity. Mercury is poisonous to the body, causes or aggravates numerous health problems (please refer to this webpage for information), and has been proven to cause birth defects.

In addition to toxic materials, dentists frequently recommend toxic procedures as well. An example of this is the root canal. Root canals are frequently recommended in spite of the fact that root canals are a heavy burden on the immune system. According to Dr. Jerome, the acute infection in the tooth may subside, but a chronic infection continues and the bacteria continue to produce toxins.

In contrast to the "save every tooth" philosophy, Dr. Jerome's philosophy is "no tooth is worth damaging your immune system." Dr. Jerome recommends having the tooth pulled rather than leaving the dead tooth in your mouth. In addition, he discusses the importance of properly cleaning the tooth socket after a tooth is extracted.

Those who are familiar with Dr. Hulda Clark's books (The Cure for All Cancers, The Cure for HIV and AIDS, etc.) will recognize this philosophy. In fact, it was through Dr. Clark's books that I first learned about Dr. Jerome, as Dr. Clark interviews Dr. Jerome in all of her books. Because of this connection between Drs. Jerome and Clark, I assumed that Dr. Jerome's new edition of Tooth Truth would have the same dental recommendations as Dr. Clark's latest book The Cure for All Advanced Cancers [see The New Times, September 2000 issue for review].

As it turns out, they have different recommendations in the area of fillings. Dr. Clark recommends laboratory-processed composite inlays (cured according to the procedure in The Cure for All Advanced Cancers so that no toxins can seep), while Dr. Jerome uses the composite Visiofil. This is a major difference in recommendations, and Dr. Clark devotees will want to take note of this difference.

However, in spite of this difference, Tooth Truth contains a wealth of information that can benefit everyone. Such technical distinctions and details may seem like too much information for the average dental patient, but, given the current practice of dentistry, it is no longer advisable that we blindly follow a dentist's recommendations. For the preservation of our health, it is essential that we become informed consumers in the area of dental care. Tooth Truth provides the details of dentistry to help us make those informed decisions.

Dentistry has never been at the top of my list of things I would like to learn about in this lifetime. In fact, for most of my life, dentistry has been on a different list: "Things I would prefer not to know." But while ignorance is bliss, ignorance can also be costly. The costs come in the form of declining health and money spent for dental treatments that aren't in one's best interest.

Tooth Truth provides some shocking and disturbing information about the current practice of dentistry. By the end of the book, I could see why Dr. Frank Jerome, D.D.S., states in his introduction, "This book is a warning to every person that there is much danger every time they enter a dental office." The dangers include almost every aspect of dentistry, from treatments recommended to the materials used.

Dr. Jerome states, "It is common knowledge among dentists that over 95 percent of all dental treatments are optional." It is important, therefore, that the patient have the information to discern which of these treatments might be beneficial and which might not. Tooth Truth is a book for the consumer, a dental primer, providing an understanding of dental techniques and materials so that informed decisions can be made when your dentist makes recommendations.

For most people, the normal course of action is to accept a dentist's recommendations, have the treatment done, and then forget about it. In contrast, Tooth Truth provides a broader perspective, letting us know the consequences of a particular treatment ten years later so that we can decide whether or not it is wise to have a particular treatment in the first place.

For example, if you know that crowning a tooth increases the probability of needing a root canal later, then you might choose not to have a tooth crowned. Dr. Jerome explains how damaging it is to remove all of a tooth's enamel in order to crown a tooth. Furthermore, we learn that twenty percent of all crowned teeth die. Once the tooth dies, most dentists will want to do a root canal.

Rather than having a tooth crowned, Dr. Jerome suggests either a composite filling or an onlay. An onlay is bonded to the top of the tooth and allows more of the enamel to remain intact. An onlay is far less damaging to the tooth than a crown, yet dentists are less likely to suggest this option. Dentists are taught that they need to "do more crowns to increase practice profitability."

In fact, in quite a variety of areas, dentists do not seem to take into account the toxicity of the treatment being recommended. An example of this is the continued use of mercury in fillings. Dr. Jerome explores the use of mercury in dentistry and discusses its toxicity. Mercury is poisonous to the body, and has been proven to cause birth defects.

In addition to the health threats that mercury poses, the disposal of the mercury-containing amalgam is a noticeable threat to our environment. The mercury-containing amalgam filling is considered hazardous waste before it is put in your mouth, and it is also considered hazardous waste if the filling is ever removed from your mouth. (Yet, somehow it is considered safe while it is in your mouth!) A newspaper reports that 25 percent of the mercury in the air in Denmark comes from crematoriums. Mercury enters the sewers from dental offices and contaminates the environment. Some dental offices in Europe are required to use mercury separators on their sewer lines, but there is no such requirement in the United States.

As it turns out, it is actually quite common to find toxic elements in dental materials. Porcelain, for example, commonly has radioactive material added to help give it luminescence. Nickel, which is carcinogenic, is commonly found in braces and crowns.

In addition to toxic materials, dentists frequently recommend toxic procedures as well. An example of this is the root canal. Since the philosophy of dentistry is to "save every tooth," root canals are frequently recommended in spite of the fact that root canals are a heavy burden on the immune system. According to Dr. Jerome, the acute infection in the tooth may subside, but a chronic infection continues and the bacteria continue to produce toxins.

In contrast to the "save every tooth" philosophy, Dr. Jerome's philosophy is "no tooth is worth damaging your immune system." Dr. Jerome recommends having the tooth pulled rather than leaving the dead tooth in your mouth.

Tooth Truth, September 14, 2006

The negative medical impact of conventional dentistry can come from any of a number of sources. The most common ones are:

Holistic dentists use biocompatible materials that will not adversely impact a patient's immune system. Stainless steel and other metals continue to be used in the mouth even though they have been well-established to have a cancer-causing effect when used elsewhere in the body.

Root Canals: Root canal-treated teeth are proving to be almost always infected, and the toxins that have been isolated from them are often incredibly potent. Some researchers claim there is a strong relation between the presence of root canals and the development of cancer and heart disease. It appears that the longer root canal-treated teeth stay in the body, the more the immune system becomes compromised.

Cavitations: Pockets of gangrene in the jawbone are often found at the sites of previous extractions by conventional dentists. These toxins are essentially the same as those found in root canals, being the product of aerobic mouth bacteria being forced to live in an anaerobic environment. Most traditional dentists still think cavitations do not exist, even though they have been shown to be extremely common, especially at the sites of wisdom teeth extractions.

Implants: Currently, implants continue to be done without biocompatibility testing, and they are often started at extraction sites where cavitations are already developing. Autoimmune diseases seem to be often aggravated or even initiated by implants.

Periodontal Disease: Not enough emphasis is put on how severely the infection in the gums of the periodontal-disease patient impacts that patient's long-term health. Heart disease is clearly the result of such disease in many patients. Repeated surgery and antibiotic courses are not the first choices of environmental, holistic and biological dentists in treating this condition.

1. Use herbal antibacterial mouthwash
2. 500 mg vit c internally and also applying some on gums.
3. 500 ng niacin internally
4 5mg foilic acid internally
5 Coenzyme Q10 interally and on gums (100mg)
6 Vitamin E internally and on gums.

Hello folks

There is so much information about gum problems on the internet most are taking incharge of your own dental health.

Whereas organised dentistry is bringing more expensive treatment methods like Laser, surgery, bone grafting.
Please read:
Lasers char, burn, the root surfaces,
Power toothbrushes & Power scalers destroy the root surface. These vibrators/shakers cause more gum recession, more bone loss, and are used to produce more income, faster. DONOT LET PEROPLE USE ON YOU.

Tissue grafting, bone grafting, and implants are totally dependent on healthy, natural bone. The "accepted" failure rate of these procedures is comparable to the failure rate of gum surgery (40-50%, or the flip of a coin).

BOP, bleeding on probing to measure gum pockets, is only 30% accurate. Such a guess can hardly be considered a dependable diagnostic procedure, not to mention the fact that BOP, with absolute certainty, spreads infection all over the mouth.

Compliance Rate by patients after traditional periodontal surgeries is only 30%. That is, these patients do not follow the dentist's instructions 70% of the time afterwards. This leads to more tooth loss because "the patient didn't do their job." Could it be that the lack of compliance is the result of the radical procedures and treatment of the patient? We find in many cases that the major reason the patient does not lose teeth is due to their own preventive dental care and no one else, not even the dental team.

I did thorough research through medical text books and research papaer. All herbal toothpastes, hydrogen peroxide, vitamin C, CQ10 all help but the treatment method that eliminates the problem for ever is the use of calcium. There is one method CALCIUM THERAPY that works 99%.CALCIUM inhibits OSTEOCLASTS

CALCIUM Method of REPLANTATION Florida studies by Drs.Y. Pohl, A. Filippi, et al, in OS,OM,OP on replantation of teeth using calcium materials seem to reinfoce the publication of Dr. Manhart's report on Calcium Method of Replantation in the General Dentistry Journal (1983).

Ask your denstists to follow this.

Everybody with any kind of gum problem will benefit from it.

Please note that Dr. Mark Manhart recommends saliva instead of toothpaste or tooth soap (info below) .

Saliva is the body’s most important protection against tooth decay.

A clinical evaluation of calcium therapy for periodontal disease

Abstract

.. Dr. Gerard F. Judd, Professor, Chemist and Researcher, states that the health of our teeth can be improved to a point where they are nearly perfect, if a regimen of frequent rinsing (especially after meals), using tooth soap* for brushing our teeth instead of commercial toothpaste, and taking calcium, phosphate and Vitamin C supplements is implemented.

• Rinse acids and food particles off the teeth during and after eating. Acids in food destroy enamel. Protect your teeth by rinsing these acids from their teeth promptly. Just sip water, milk or other liquid while eating and rinse afterwards. Water reacts with acids. This will be a huge step in preventing cavities.

• Tooth Paste: Some ingredients in tooth paste (even in "organic / non-toxic" toothpaste) detrimental effects on our teeth. The glycerin that they contain inhibits the teeth from naturally re-enamelizing and flouride is associated with numerous health problems. Many toothpastes also contain glycerin, artificial sweeteners, silicates (sand), dyes, stabilizers and/or other materials that can damage teeth and be detrimental to your overall health.

According to Dr. Mark Manhart DDS Did you know that Saliva works better than toothpastes for cleaning teeth? It is low in salt, anti-microbial, and an excellent "buffer" for the entire mouth, according to Archives of Internal Medicine.




Below is what I am using for both my face (instead of harsh soaps) and my teeth! What I LOVE about it is that it doesn't taste like soap! I wouldn't use anything else on my face either nowadays. It's also convenient that you have one "less item" on your bathroom counter. It's also much cheaper. Items sold as "tooth soap" often cost more than $20 - and I found the ingredients very similar or the same.
Organic Virgin Coconut Oil Liquid Soap - 8 oz. with Tea Tree Oil	Organic Virgin Coconut Oil Liquid Soap - 8 oz
Ingredients: Organic Fresh UNREFINED Virgin Coconut Oil for the unscented version. Organic high-quality Tea Tree oil essential oils has been added to the one on the left. These soaps are packaged in a special foam pump dispenser that adds air to the soap, causing a rich lather of foam to come out.

Instead of toothpaste:
1. Mix baking soda and hydrogen peroxide ... if you like, add peppermint essential oil for taste. Use as you would use common toothpaste. Baking soda is less abrasive than normal toothpaste, which protects your tooth enamel from wearing down; alternatively. Hydrogen peroxide cleans, whitens, disinfects.
• Toothsoap is highly recommended. Typical ingredients include saponified coconut, palm, and organic, extra virgin olive oils and essential oil. As is the case with toothpaste, they should never contain glycerin, sweeteners, silicates (sand), fluoride, dyes, stabilizers or other materials that can damage teeth. Silica will wear out the enamel of your teeth. Occasional use of baking soda isn't as abrasive and works just as well.
• Another option would be to brush the teeth with bar soap - however, do NOT use ordinary bar soap to brush your teeth! Most bar soaps contain many artificial ingredients that should not be ingested and can also coat teeth. What would work is a plain, unscented olive oil soap, which is sold at most natural food stores.
• - perfect prescription tooth soap contains NO added glycerin, artificial / synthetic sweeteners, silicates (sand), fluoride, dyes, stabilizers or other materials that can damage teeth. All batches of Perfect Prescription bar shreds and liquid soap are made in small quantities to insure you are getting a fresh product. Tooth Soap tastes best if used within 3 months of opening the jar. Perfect Prescription Tooth Soap is made in the USA in a commercial kitchen licensed by the Oregon Department of Agriculture and is Certified Kosher by Star-K.

1. Freshen your mouth and sweeten your breath naturally ...
   • Chew a pinch of the following herbs: parsley, basil, cilantro or dill - which are rich in chlorophyll.
   • Chew the seeds or make tea by adding the leaves or mashed seeds to boiling water.
   • Cardamom contains cineole, a potent antiseptic that kills bad-breath bacteria. You can chew the seeds and then spit them out.
   • Anise: Boil the seeds in a cup of water. Strain, and then drink or use as a mouthwash.
   • Peppermint tea, a strong antiseptic, fights halitosis
   • Oil of Oregano: Plaque and gum disease can be prevented with the oral application of oregano oil because of its anti-bacterial properties. Swish one or two drops in your mouth, or put a drop on your toothbrush when cleaning your teeth.



2. Supportive Nutrition:
   1. Vitamin C
   2. Calcium Supplements
   3. Cod Liver Oil:There is some evidence that the mineralization of dentine may depend on calcium derived from saliva rather than blood; in other words, it is deposited from the exterior rather than the interior of the tooth. This book describes studies by Dr. C. L. Pattison who, working with Mrs. Mellanby, determined that the calcium content of saliva doubled or even tripled when the diet contained adequate vitamin D from cod liver oil.



3. Gums can be reconnected to the teeth by taking 1 tsp ascorbic acid with Arm and Hammer baking soda (1/2 tsp) in 1 inch of water, letting it fizz and then diluting to 1/2 to 1 cup with water, then drinking. The resulting sodium ascorbate is non-acid, very pure and a thousand times more soluble than vitamin C. Sodium ascorbate is more effective in building connective tissue and antibody structures and more effective in killing some viruses and bacteria than ascorbic acid.



4. Avoid all fluoride products - They occur in drinking water, tooth pastes or gels.
   1. Fluoride destroys 83 enzymes that deliver phosphate to calcium at the tooth surface needed for strong teeth,
   2. Fluoride is a severe biological poison.
5. Dental Fillings commonly contain toxins (the most significant being mercury - which makes up between 40 to 50% of common fillings). Those toxins leak into our body and cause disease. Request fillings made of quartzite and epoxy as safe substitute.
   

Hydrogen Peroxide and Its Multiple Uses in Mouth Care:

Healing Properties: Take one capful (the little white cap that comes with the bottle) and hold in your mouth for 10 minutes daily, then spit it out. You will not have canker sores and your teeth will be whiter. If you have a terrible toothache and cannot get to a dentist right away, put a capful of 3% hydrogen peroxide into your mouth and hold it for 10 minutes several times a day. The pain will lessen greatly.

Mouthwash: Many people don't realize that hydrogen peroxide makes a very effective and inexpensive mouthwash. Use 3% H202 - add a dash of liquid chlorophyll for flavoring if desired.

Toothpaste: Use baking soda and add enough 3% H202 to make a paste. Or, just dip your brush in 3% H202 and brush. Soak your toothbrush in hydrogen peroxide to keep them free of germs.

Toothbrush: Soaking your toothbrush in hydrogen peroxide will help keep them free of harmul germs.

Tooth Ache: Hydrogen peroxide is not a pain killer; however, as an anti-viral, antibacterial and anti-fungal agent, it is effective at treating the pathogen that is causing the infection. The following is from my own personal experience: My dentist wanted to give me a root canal some time ago as one tooth was inflamed and, in her opinion, would die. I felt some discomfort but told her that I would give it chance to heal. I rinsed with hydrogen peroxide (several times a day) as well as coconut oil (once a day). The discomfort went away and I have had no further problems with the tooth.

Tooth Whitening: Having used 3% Hydrogen Peroxide as a mouth wash for sometime ago, I am thrilled to note that my teeth have been beautifully and effortlessly whitened. I used to pay so much for professional whitening, those silly strips and uncomfortable trays. Live and learn.

NOTE: Do not swallow any hydrogen peroxide. When the peroxide rinse is done, be sure to rinse out your mouth with tap water.

Common Dental Health Problems:

• Periodontal disease:

Any form of ill health affecting the periodontium--the tissues that surround and support the teeth. These include the gums (or gingiva), the bone of the tooth socket, and the periodontal ligament, a thin layer of connective tissue that holds the tooth in its socket and acts as a cushion between tooth and bone.

• Gingivitis:

Inflammation or infection of the gums

• Periodontitis:

Inflammation or infection of the bone

• Dental plaque:

Plaque is a combination of bacteria and sticky bacterial products that forms on the teeth within hours of cleaning. Its source is the natural bacteria in the mouth, In small amounts and when newly formed, plaque is invisible and relatively harmless. But when left to accumulate, it increases in volume and the proportion of harmful species in the plaque grows.

• Gum pockets:

Gum pockets are formed as the plaque pushes the gums away from the teeth. However, they are also formed by fluoride (ingredients in commercial tooth care products and added to drinking water) - as fluoride severs the protein molecules adhering the gums to the teeth.

• Demineralization: Tooth erosion, teeth wearing down / cavitiy formation
  
  
  • Nutrition: Vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients in the body are needed to build healthy teeth. If insufficient nutrients are provided via the diet, calcium and phosphate of the enamel migrates out of the teeth to the bones, heart, brain and other places where it is needed. Dentists refer to this as demineralization.
  • Dental Care: Using abrasive tooth care products are also blamed for destroying tooth enamel.

Re-enamelization (teeth growing back) of enamel requires several factors, including:

• Ensuring nutritional needs are met, specifically the need for minerals such as calcium, phosphate, magnesium, and the variety of enzymes needed to regrow tooth enamel such as adenosine diphophatase



• Avoiding acidy or sugary foods and drinks. Even though sugar by itself has no effect on teeth, some bacteria convert sugar into acids. Acids soften the enamel on your teeth so when brushing your teeth after eating or drinking acidy foods and drinks, you are effectively brushing off the enamel. Sugary sodas / drinks are especially destructive to our teeth, as people tend to sip on them over an extended period of time without in-between mouth rinsing - therefore escalating the damage done to our teeth.
  • Note: Sugars are found in unexpected sources - not just in sodas and candy, but also milk and even fruits and vegetables. However, the nutrients in dairy products and produce are needed for rebuilding teeth enamel as well as for avoiding demineralization of teeth ...therefore, it is immensly important to get into the habit of rinsing our mouths after each drink or meal represents to reduce and even eliminate tooth erosion
  • When mouth rinsing isn't possible -- immediately drinking water after a meal or drink is also advisable.
  • Sip water, milk or other liquid while eating. Water reacts with acids.



• Proper oral care - which includes AVOIDING toothcare products that contain fluoride, silica and glycerin (more info below)

Tooth Pain & Toothache Natural Remedies. (Cure For Cavities Tour) Tooth pain happens when the tooth nerve is inflamed. Generally this occurs due to compromised tooth enamel which is allowing material to enter directly into the tooth pulp (the center of your tooth). Sometimes tooth pain can also actually be gum pain, from gum disease or from other gum problems, just be aware of this. Tooth Pain Home Remedy Suggestions I have never had a significant tooth ache. The reason is because I have made my teeth strong and healthy with a careful diet. In addition to the quick home remedies below, I urge you to understand the real cause of tooth pain, and see how you can take long term steps to get your teeth out of pain. Some suggestions have been reported to work by other people. olive oil soaked on cotton applied to tooth vanilla extract or almond extract applied to tooth cut a slice of onion and put it into your mouth near pain crushed garlic on tooth oregano oil clove oil golden seal powder baking soda swished in mouth oil pulling (swishing in the mouth organic sesame seed oil for 5-10 minutes .) Marine grade coral calcium applied to the tooth or mouth Other: Ozone tooth treatments from a dentist.

Types of Tooth Pain

This will help you get an idea of what type of problem you have. This is not meant to be a replacement for dental advise, but to help you understand what you are needing.

Pain: Temporary sensitivity to hot or cold foods without recent dental work.

Meaning: Minor breech of tooth nerve or beginning gum disease.

Pain: Lasting sensitivity and more constant awareness of hot or cold foods without recent dental work.

Meaning: The tooth pulp is likely infected, the tooth may be cracked or chipped, or the beginning of gum disease.

Pain: Temporary sensitivity to hot or cold foods after recent dental treatment.

Meaning: Dental work can cause tooth pulp inflammation which would be an intense but very short pain. Tooth pulp should heal within 2-4 weeks.

Pain: Lasting or prolonged sensitivity and constant awareness of hot or cold foods after recent dental treatment.

Meaning: The tooth cavity may have been too close to tooth pulp and dental treatment did not protect the pulp sufficiently. One person wrote to me about this issue after having their mercury amalgam's replaced. Dentists will normally recommend root canals to treat this.

Pain: Sharp pain from biting down on food

Possible Meanings:

• Loose Filling
• Tooth Decay
• Cracked or Fractured Tooth
• Infected Tooth

Pain: Constant and severe pain with pressure, swelling of the gum, and sensitivity to touch.

Meaning: Tooth abscess(infection).

Pain: The tooth hurts when you tap your finger from the side.

Meaning: The periodontal ligament is degenerating or inflamed

“I was in pain and the cheek had actually started to swell up. Within three weeks of trying the diet I could tell I was turning the corner. The tooth stopped hurting; my teeth all over became whiter. After over a month on the diet it is hard for me to fell which tooth was bothering me. When I look at it in the mirror it still has a hole but the tooth feels like it is healing. Thanks a million to Ramiel Nagel for writing this book. Unbelievable!" Leroy, Utah
