Alternatives To Root Canals, Yes They Exist!

You are diagnosed with needing a root canal, you want an alternative, what can you do?

Get A Second Opinion

If your tooth does not hurt, and you do not feel any pain, then you have plenty of time to go see another dentist or two.

If you do not have an infection, then what are the benefits of getting a root canal done?

Here is a resource to determine if your tooth is infected. The symptom lists helps you narrow down what the meaning of different types of tooth pain is. Generally, swelling beyond just the gums, or pus filled areas on your gum indicate a tooth infection. Just gum swelling without pus might indicate a gum infection.

Not all tooth pain and swelling occur because the tooth root is infected. It could also mean that gum tissue has abscessed. Gum tissue infections can be healed without a root canal.

The Problems with Root Canals

What Dr. Price and Dr. Meinig showed is that there is more than a large central nerve-canal space to worry about, but, rather, that there are millions of little tunnels coming off the central nerve-canal space radiating through the body of the tooth root to the exterior surface of the tooth root. The tooth root surface is in contact with the blood stream and then bone. The tubules within the tooth, comprise literally miles of tunnels into which bacteria from the nerve-canal space can go and hide. This has been is shown by the electron-microscope! The areas of tooth disconnected from the vital blood can begin expell toxic material into the body. This does not happen to everyone, but to some people. This is the problem with root canals.

Convential Treatment Claims No Other Options To Root Canals

The typical dental perspective is as follows:

Pro's and Con's of Tooth Extraction Alternative

The positive side of a tooth extraction is that it is quick, and cheap and you do not have to get a root canal!

The negative side is that you are left without your tooth to chew food with. Many times, the gum and surrounding tooth tissue is already weak, so the space near the extracted tooth becomes clumsy, and as a result, the jaw/tooth/bone structure is compromised. The only solution if this happens, is a dental bridge, or a dental implant. This then becomes financially about the same cost as a root canal, however, you won't have a dead tooth in your mouth.

There is an Alternative to Root Canals

Despite the common belief that there is no alternative to root canals other than having the tooth pull, there IS another way!

Our body can protect itself from infection when we carefully eat foods that keep our body in balance. It requires the strictest of principles to follow such a diet. Currently I have three testimonials of people healing tooth infections, two of which were very significant, using whole foods.

Right now I am still getting the recpie for one of the dishes.

Let me give you some free pointers to heal tooth infections:

1. Eliminate ALL processed sugar, especially foods containing white sugar, and greatly limit natural sugars (temporarily)
2. Drink certified raw milk from pasture raised animals. (pasteurized milk won't provide the same benefits)
3. Eat raw meat. Raw fish, like sashimi (white rice is probably not good in the case of infection) or raw beef like steak tartar.
4. Eat plenty of very yellow butter, preferably raw butter. Now is not the time to limit fat or worry about cholesterol, but rather it is a time to give your body what it needs.
5. Strictly avoid flour products, especially white bread or so called whole wheat bread and other white flour products. White flour will cause tooth infections sometimes within a few minutes. Limit grains to eating grains that are freshly ground and then fermented, like sourdough.

In addition to this, there are some topical ways to help heal the tooth infection using natural treatments.

Tooth Infection Halting Recipe

1lb raw ground pastured bison, beef, or lamb
4oz of yellow butter (kerrygold, anchor, or a local butter)
1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon of raw honey

Place butter, cayene, and raw honey in a glass jar or bowl. Then immerse that bowl in a bowl of hot water that is not too hot. Basically a low temperature double boiler. The point is not to raise the temperature above 93 degrees fareignheit to preserve the integrety. Once the butter / honey /cayenne mixture is melted add the ground bison and stir. This is a raw food dish. This dish with cooked bison, beef, or lamb, will hardly be effective in stopping a tooth infection.

When you combine these practices along with other ones, such as the tooth decay prevention program outlined in my book, you can heal infected teeth, and you can prevent decayed teeth from becoming infected, thus preventing the need for root canals.

Even if you get a root canal, there are still adverse effects that happen frequently, and these too can be limited through giving your body the fullest chance at stopping infection.
