Dangers of Conventional Root Canals
"[Dentist Weston Price (www.WestonaPrice.org)] removed those canals of
people suffering from kidney and heart disease and in most cases their
condition improved. Then he inserted the root-filled teeth under the skin
of rabbits who have immune systems similar to humans. If a small fragment
were inserted, within two weeks the rabbit died with the same condition the
human donor had. If a large fragment was inserted, the rabbit died within 12
hours to 2 days."
"Dr. Price observed that angina pectoris, phlebitis, hypertension,
heart block, anemia, and inflammation of the heart muscle are
frequent side effects of root canal therapy. He also reported that
he would sometimes see heart patients with outwardly normal-
appearing root canal teeth resolve most or all of their symptoms
upon removal of those dead teeth [H. A. Huggins, DDS, _The Price of Root
Canals_, Colorado Springs, CO, Huggins Diagnostic Ctr, 1994]....New research
shows that dental infections are behind hardening of arteries, heart
attacks, strokes, and spontaneous preterm births (Morton Walker, D.P.M.
[1999] _Elements of Danger: Protect Yourself Against the Hazards of Modern
Dentistry_, Hampton Roads, p. 40).
"infections persist for years w/o the patient's knowledge...toxins
leak out and depress the...immune system, leading to chronic
degenerative diseases....Weston Price, D.D.S., M.S., F.A.C.D.,
former Dir. of Research for the Am. Dental Assn. [for 14 years],
made the astonishing claim that if teeth that have had root canals
are removed from patients suffering from kidney and heart disease,
these diseases will resolve in most cases. Moreover, implanting
these teeth in animals results in the animals developing the same
kind of disease found in the person from whom the tooth was taken.
Dr. Price found that toxins seeping out of the root canals can
cause systemic diseases of the heart, kidney, uterus, and nervous
and endocrine systems...research has demonstrated that 100 percent
of all root canals result in residual infection" (_Alternative Medicine: The
Definitive Guide_, Burton Goldberg Group, 1993, pp. 81-83;
alternativemedicine.com).
"Cavitations are infected areas in bone surrounding the roots of teeth. They
usually come from infected matter in root canalled teeth. When a DDS does
root canal therapy (RCT) s/he sterilizes and fills the vertical pulp canal -
about an inch long - and leaves infected the approximate 3 miles of dentinal
tubules that cannot yet be treated..full of
infection - that will continue to release toxins, viruses, etc. into the
blood stream for the rest of your life..Infections from this source affects
your entire immune system.. The infection exudes from the root to the
supporting jaw-bone..For a more complete description request our report `Can

"I have had a number of patients with breast cancer, all of whom had root
canals on the tooth related to the breast area on the associated energy
meridian." John Diamond, M.D.
"the reason being that dead teeth [which root canals are] will scatter
toxins throughout the body, apparently following the meridian that they lie
upon"
"chronic headaches for 20+ years. She had 5 root canals under her nose.
She had them extracted and when she did the dentist had to open all the
windows.The smell was of death. He put one of the teeth under my nose to get
a good smell and I almost threw up..After they were removed, her chronic
headaches were gone for good." Larry, www.notdoctors.com
"I developed ovarian cancer six months after my first root canal....I
cracked a tooth...infection in my gums. That led to a second root canal. My
tumor marker immediately doubled, and tumors jumped in size, etc. Had the
teeth extracted. The older one stank, and the second one had a cyst full of
pus beneath it. Two months later, my tumor marker is dropping rapidly."

"study of breast cancer patients and I found that over 98% had a disturbance
on the stomach meridian....In about 150 cases of women with breast cancer,
we only had 3 patients who did not have a root canal in a tooth that belongs
to the stomach meridian...So we did a study of women in the same age range
without breast cancer, without chronic diseases, and only 30% of that group
had root canals" Thomas Rau, M.D., Chief Medical Dir., Paracelsus Clinic
www.beating-cancer-gently.com/nl89.html
"looked at 50 cases of breast cancer....the breast lies on the stomach
meridian...in the breast cancer, if you have a tooth with root canal on the
stomach meridian, which is the 6th tooth from the front on both sides, the
molar, if you have this root canal treated, it can be a blockage which can
disturb the breast. I have seen about 50 cases...all of these 50 patients
had a blockage on the tooth belonging to the stomach meridian. Mostly it was
either cavitation problems after extraction of the teeth which was not done
correctly or it was a root canal....If you had 100 women with breast cancer,
would you expect [at least 90] to have a tooth involvement....We saw similar
things also in prostate cancer....the front teeth....There are a lot of
prostate cancer patients who do not have front teeth problems. But in the
breast cancer, we did not find a single case without." Thomas Rau, M.D.

"Dr. Rau estimates that in 90% of breast cancer patients he has treated,
there has been a dental infection. As the breast lies on the Stomach
meridian, if you have a problematic tooth (such as a root canal) situated on
this meridian, as it passes through the jaw it blocks the flow of energy and
can cause degeneration and eventually cancer, Dr. Rau explains. To a lesser
extent, a dental infection is also involved in the development of prostate
cancer."

canals.
