Hi All!

Went and saw a biological dentist this morning. It went very well, and I got a really good feeling from this man. He told me a story of him getting a root canal in 2000. It started bothering him in 2004 and he had to have it redone. In 2010 he started having pains in his left arm that got so bad that he needed a sling. No one could figure out what was happening. He said another dentist friend of him suggested that it may be his root canal. He said minutes after they removed the root canal he felt a sort of relief sweep over his body. 3 weeks later his arm pain had resolved.

On to me... I have a root canal that I just had done 4 months ago. I am already having soreness from it. I also have infections in my gum line. I have scheduled appointments to have the deep gum cleaning and treating done and have the root canal pulled. I know this is hindering any progress in getting Lyme and co under control.

Before I left he gave me a print out of recommended reading. I thought I would share one of the sites with you all. Fascinating stuff.

It talks about the link between Mercury and diseases such as Lupus, ALS, MS, Parkinson's, etc... And some of us wonder why Lyme treatment alone is not working. I had no idea how much dental issues contributed to our well being.

A few weeks ago I read an article that said Dick Van Dyke had issues with his Titanium implant:

Titanium implants can cause abnormal cells to form (pre-cancer)

It was mentioned that Zirconium may be a better choice for people.

This is a very important subject for one of our members, "magoo" ---he posts about it frequently. You might do searches on the forum for his posts or for similar topics and you'll probably find his posts. Maybe you can also contact him directly.

i think biological dentists are a bit of a scam. just my opinion (and i know magoo will shoot me for it!). i did my research on what they do versus a traditional dentist and i just don't see the material differences that would impact my health.

they are similar to anyone that wants to see a naturopath versus a traditional MD (though they can be both) so nothing wrong with it i just think the premium you spend (usually not covered by insurance) isn't providing equivalent value.

There is a difference in the dentist I see in my town and the biological dentist I went and saw out of town today.

When I voiced my concerns to my regular dentist over the root canal he gave me a few months ago, it was almost as if I offended him. He became defensive and stated that if I read that root canals are a breeding ground for bacteria, and can be the cause of autoimmune disease, that it was a lie.

I believe the difference is the understanding of other illnesses caused by mouth issues. I feel much more comfortable going to this biological dentist than I do my regular dentist. And my regular dentist is a super nice guy. We chat for a while every time I come to see him. But, he is not informed about Lyme. The biological dentist looks to be somewhat versed in many areas of autoimmune disorders. He is looking out for my overall health by working on my mouth issues.
