| Already Have a Root Canal? |
If you already have a root canal you may need to
first seek out a biologic dentist as above. After this, if the dentist needs
a kit to check for the toxins, they can contact Dr. Pendergrass at the
University of Kentucky 606-257-2300 X291
(email) for a kit that can assay
to see if the there are organisms present in the tooth which are secreting
potent toxins.
If the tooth is infected with significant pathologic
bacteria there are several options. The simple one would be to have the root
canal redone with a material called BioCalyx.
BioCalyx actually destroys many of the organisms and
is far less likely to cause problems in the short run. If this fails and one
is seriously debilitated it maybe necessary to extract the tooth.
| If Your Dentist Tells You You Need
A Root Canal |
If you are not seeing a biological dentist already,
try to find someone who understands this process. That would be the first
step. Many biological dentists have alternatives, such as infra-red lasers,
that can save the tooth in about 25% of the cases.
If the tooth is dead and there is no way to revive
it, then it would be best to have a root canal with Biocalyx
Take this
preliminary
to see if your condition could respond to treatment.
