Toxic Tuesday - If a tooth is an organ, why do we kill them and leave them attached to living bone?

An “Organ” is defined as “a part of an organism that is typically self-contained and has a specific vital function”. Teeth therefore qualify as an organ. Although teeth are not essential for life (we do have patients who wear dentures!), they are essential for optimal systemic health, particularly gastrointestinal health. But at what point does “saving a tooth” (usually with a root canal) become a dangerous proposition for your systemic health?

Ask any physician if there is any organ in the body they would leave inside a person if the organ died. The pancreas? The appendix? A kidney? Of course this is ridiculous! Any organ in the body (except teeth!) are removed immediately if they are dead or severely infected and abscessed. Teeth somehow are the exception.

It is true that root canal therapy can be performed comfortably and tooth pain symptoms can abate. But science has shown going back more than 100 years that all dead teeth are filled with microbes. (See the works of Dr. Weston A. Price and Boyd Haley, Ph.D. for a start. Also read “Root Canal Cover-Up”!) If you choose to have a root canal, you deserve to understand ALL of the risks associated with this procedure. Considering the successful health recoveries I have personally observed by removing root canal-treated teeth from people who were suffering from “unexplained diseases”, tooth extraction deserves equal attention when considering options for a dead or infected tooth.

If you are suffering from diseases for which you cannot find a cause, remember to consider the mouth as a source of toxicity. Our team would be happy to help you!
