I BET YOU THOUGHT I WAS DONE BANGING ON DENTISTS

But when I discovered Robert Gammal's book, The Garbage Collector, I learned that I had missed a huge part of the story.During a root canal procedure, the endodontist drills out the tooth’s center. He then applies carcinogenic antiseptics such as phenol and formaldehyde in a futile attempt to sterilize it. Next, he fills it with a range of materials that are far from biocompatible. These toxic materials are described HERE, and all of them are considered safe and effective by the dental fraternity, the FDA, and the Therapeutic Goods Association of Australia. Any of these can pass into the brain, which is only a few inches away. Precisely filling the remaining hole where nerves went into a tooth’s roots is impossible. So the dentist either leaves these open to the rest of the body or overfills it. In the past, this was often done using mercury alloys. Currently, other hazardous materials are used, but removing dead teeth with old amalgam-containing root canals is still part of any biological dentist’s practice. Dr. Gammal’s wrote me to say, “All root fillings leak and this gets worse over time. The other danger is that if the root canal is overfilled with toxic filling materials, it inevitably kills the bone around the end of the root. Mercury is sometimes still placed at the end of the root following the apicectomy procedure, and this is a total disaster.”Following a root canal, the tooth is no longer living but dead—it becomes a “foreign body.” A tooth is not a stone—it is human tissue. All surgeons know what happens when dead biological materials remain inside people. These are inevitably infected and spread bacteria to new locations. For example, nearly all heart attack artery blockages are infected with the same bacteria that are in the patient’s mouth. Also, inflammatory diseases such as arthritis and other autoimmune conditions often go away when canal teeth are removed. Gammal editorializes:Nothing works. The whole procedure is based on illusion from beginning to end. If it were possible to sterilize the tooth, then this problem would not exist. There is a blanket denial that bacteria and toxins escape from the tooth the whole way down the length of the root, and not just through the apex. It would therefore make more sense to take the whole root out and not just the end of it. Fantasy and illusion reign in the minds of endodontists.NB: This introduction understates the harms of root canals. The rest of this post will document why they should never be performed and why they must be extracted.FOR MORE, SEE https://robertyoho.substack.com/p/259-i-thought-i-was-done-banging#detailsSupport the show
