_______________________________________________Oral health
I've healed many cavities, gum inflamation and infection in my
life, but I've also lost many teeth. I have big teeth which
got filling at a young age, these teeth seems really
hard to heal. I wish I could remove these filling.
I've had 1 root canal which became massively infected and
needed quite a serious intervention from the dentist. I will
never get another root canal in my life.
These are my notes, experiment and research so far.
RULE of THUMB for ORAL HYGENE
- Flossing is the most important activity
- Brushing with a non-fluoride paste (or no paste at all)
- Make sure your brush is clean from bacteria
- Remove processed sugar from diet
- Remove flours from diet
- Take Zinc and magnezium
- Practice pulling*
- Gum sweetened with Xytol help mineralize teeth
- Massaging the gums with clean finger will help
keeping a healthy mouth and might indicate when
there are inflamation / infection in the mouth.
- The body can heal the mouth as long as you are ready
to make a change in your habits.
- I still go to the dentist, and they help me spot
cavities. I just don't let them drill and fill my teeth
anymore, I heal my cavities instead.
PULLING
- Pulling is the action of rincing your mouth
with your own saliva.
- You can use coconut oil as a starter which help
with saliva production but also cleans the mouth
from bacteria and leave a good taste
- You can also use sea salt to help clean the mouth
after the pulling.
- If you don't have any of that you can simply generate
your own saliva and swish it around your mouth for an
extended period of time (20 minutes)
- Some animals are known to do that for their own
oral hygene.
SCHOOL of DENTISTRY
- There are 2 main school of dentistry
- Traditional and Biologic dentistry
- Traditional believe tooth can't heal, where
you can eat as much sugar as you wanr, and
fluoride helps you teeth.
- Biologic believes tooth can heal, sugar
is always bad for your teeth and general health
and that fluoride is not so good for you teeth.
TRADITIONAL TREATMENT
- Eat whatever you want
- Brush with fluoride to strengthen the teeth
- Cavity are irreversible
- Drill and fill the teeth to slow down cavities
- Drill and kill once the nerve is attacked
- Root canal / crown is the final step
BIOLOGICAL TREATMENT
- Look at your diet / change you diet for your teeth
- Use vitamins to help supplement the teeth healing
- Use ozone to clean the inside of the gums
- Use pulling and massaging with brushing and flossing
- Try to avoid filling / root canal.
- Look at the body as a whole.
FLUORIDE
- Floride does strengthen the teeth, but also strengten
the deposit on the teeth. These two elements remove
the ability of the tooth to heal.
- I haven't used floride for over 20 years now, when
I go for a clean up at the dentist, the hygenist doesn't
have anything to do, as nothing is stuck to my teeth.
- Fluoride also seems to have other negative health benefit,
linked to mental capacity (neuro inhibitors).
SUGAR
- Sugar is bad for you oral health, not because it create
acides in your mouth but because it inhibit the healing 'flow'
of the teeth.
- So there is no way to eat tons of sugar and still have a
healthy mouth.
- I have the impression the present dentistry school might be
lobbyed to a certain degree by corporation profiting from sugar.
- Alchool is also bad for your teeth.
BRUSHING and FLOSSING
- Brushing and flossing is still really important
- Flossing is actually more importnat
- Brushing can be done without toothpaste
- The goal of toothpast would be to keep the bacteria off the brush
- Massaging the gum, with the brush but also with your finger
is really important.
VITAMINS
- Teeth needs a lot of minreals to heal
- Eating sugar will prevent you to absorbe many type of vitamins
- Magnezium and zinc are really important
- Vitamin C is always good when dealing with healing
INFLAMATION
- The roots of teeth will get inflame once in a while when there
has been too much preasure or a hit to the face
- Taking aspirin or tumeric will help reduce the inflamation
- Inflamation can transform in infection if not dealt with
- Do not use cold/ice on a tooth with inflamation, it will
only make it worst
- Clove is also good to reduce inflamation
INFECTION
- Root canal will always create an infection
- Because there is no more nerve you won't feel the infection
- Infection might occure at the root of a tooth (even before
the root canal)
- You can feel that infection when you massage your gum with your
(clean) finger.
- Massaging will help the flow of blood which will help reduce the
infection.
- I have found that strong antibiotic isn't the best to fix root
infection.
- Using raw crush garlic as antibiotic is the best for tooth infection
- 2 cloves a day (morning and night) for 10 days seems to get rid
of most infection.
- Replenish your stomach flora after this, use yougurt or pre/pro
biotic, ferment and a diet without sugar or process flour for a
few weeks.
- There are Lymph-nodes in the neck that might swell when you have
an infection in your lower jaw.
- Massaging the lymph node will help clean them
- But you should follow with a treatment of raw garlic and Apple
cider vinagre.
TEETH and OTHER PART OF THE BODY
- Infection of tooth can infect other organs
- A root canal on a mollar can infect the heart for example
- Root canal are alway a center of infectionn
- Headache, nerve ache, sinus infection can all be caused
by tooth problems.
