If you are faced with a serious tooth problem (i.e. cavity, chronic toothache, etc.) or require harmful metals (toxic mercury amalgams) extracted from your mouth but are health conscious and know of all the harmful chemical substances dentists use to work on you (inside your mouth), you have some serious decisions to make.
Cavities
Many Americans have cavities. I myself had a lot growing up (thanks to adults whom I trusted and who inundated me with the number one drug on the planet - sugar) that corroded a few of my teeth horribly. I still have a couple in my mouth (at the back of my mouth) and to this day I refuse to go to the dentist.
The last time I went to the dentist (1994) the dentist did major damage when pulling a tooth. A piece of tooth went through my gums and protruded out. It was painful and very irritating. My mouth just didn't feel right. That was enough for me to leave dentists alone (even though I was not all the way health conscious).
After that experience, I made up my mind to never go back to the dentist. I put this out into the Universe. Well, it was this personal episode of my last dental visit and a segment I saw on television whereby this little White girl had one side of her face sag because a dentist struck the wrong nerve. Half of the little girl's face sagged as if it was a mask. Watching this news footage messed me up severely. I was like “Damn!” “Going to the dentist just to have a tooth pulled can ruin your whole life?” I said to myself. I felt for that little girl. Her whole life was changed after one dentist visit. Half her face dropped (sagged).
Now listen, I am not attempting to frighten anyone here. I'm merely conveying why I consciously choose not to go to the dentist anymore, not even for tooth cleansing (whitening, polishing). Why should I when I have a bunch of activated charcoal (carbon) on hand?
Nothing whitens and cleans teeth better than activated charcoal and the stuff is 100% organic, safe, and you can swallow it without cause for concern unlike when you swallow toothpaste which the tube of paste clearly warns you to not swallow if you're under six years of age; but hell, even if you're 26 or 36 there's still cause for concern. A six-year old is a human just like a 26 and 36 year old. What's unhealthy for the 6-year old has to be unhealthy for me. Age cannot lessen harm to the human body. Let's keep it real here! Whether age 6 or 36, cyanide is still harmful to the human body.
I also still have 2 tiny pieces of mercury in two of my teeth that were installed back when I was a pre-teen. I'm pretty sure the mercury played a role in my plethora of headaches coming up in life as this stuff seeps into the tissues of the mouth and enters the brain wrecking havoc on our overall health and neurological health in particular.
I rather deal with the mercury than take the risk of a dentist causing me to be injured. After all, changing my diet and consuming herbs and vegetable juice halted my past dental problems as well as my nearly weekly headaches. I've been fine since 1998 and have been experiencing the best health of my life since becoming health conscious and subsisting on an exclusively plant-based diet.
I used to hate root canals. Just didn't seem right, and the smell of the drill drilling into my teeth - Lord have mercy! Smelled something awful and used to make me nauseous!
From time to time years after my days of going to the dentist and allowing them to add (or do) insult to injury, I'd experience serious pain in the back teeth (molar) that had to due with the root canals (surgery on the teeth). It would always occur (when it did) when I was going down stairwells. I experienced this for years until I wised up and switched to a plant-based diet in 1998.
Changing my diet to a predominantly plant-based one really changed my life for the better in so many ways. It was one of the best decisions that I ever made in my life. Drinking vegetable juice (especially with cilantro) solved all of my dental problems. I could finally walk down stairwells and no pain from my damaged molars (and the nerves connecting to them) and my headaches became very infrequent and soon after greatly subsided. My mind became clearer. My skin improved. I had a new found energy that was mind-boggling. My newfound diet greatly transformed my life and cleansed my brain making me more mentally sharper than I'd ever been.
Cilantro counteracts mercury toxicity and poison in the body. If you still have mercury in your mouth, you'd be wise to start drinking vegetable juice containing cilantro and eating plenty of cilantro unless you simply decide to get the mercury removed.
In addition to the cilantro, you can take activated charcoal (stirred well in a glass of water) to help remove toxins and poisons. You can't go wrong consuming cilantro and carbon (activated charcoal).
Oh, and I can't forget my Full Body Detox! Cleansing is the key here because cleansing helps to remove the harmful toxic heavy metals and other poisons that accumulate in our bodies (tissues).
When there's minor or even major toothache pain, you can rub essential oil of clove on the problem tooth or teeth until you can get yourself to a dentist, and that's of course if the pain doesn't subside.
Gargling and rinsing your mouth with hydrogen peroxide is also very helpful, especially if you suffer from bleeding gums. The hydrogen stops the bleeding from the injured and damaged gums. Bleeding gums points to other problems in which I cover in the article “Beware of Toothpaste and Dental Hygiene Products” article.
Our herbal-based Vitamin C formula and a good herbal-based tooth powder like Dherbs.Com Herbal Tooth Powder that contains hemostatic and styptic herbs will also help to stop bleeding and improve the health of the teeth and the gums. I have created the best tooth powder available! It helps stop bleeding gums, freshens the breath, whitens the teeth, removes plaque buildup from the teeth, and so many other things.
Now, getting back to you having to go to the dentist but not wanting to go:
If you have a serious problem with your teeth and need work done, I understand your sentiment of not wanting to go to the dentist, but if it's something you really need to have done, put forth an effort to first seek out a dentist who practices under wholistic (holistic) dentristy or biological dentistry.
These forms of dentistry evaluate you as a whole, use mercury-free substances, utilizes digital X-rays and other benevolent technologies. In Glendale, California, we have Sarkissian D.D.S. who offers all of the above.
If you are unable to find a dentist who practices under wholistic dentistry, then you are only left with a conventional dentist who will probably use the most harmful chemicals in his/her field of work that will enter into your body so that you can have your teeth or tooth worked on.
So if you are unable to find a wholistic dentistry-practicing dentist, basically, you have a choice: 1. You can do nothing and suffer the pain that may or could become chronic, 2. You can go to the conventional dentist and let him/her work on you (your teeth/tooth) using harmful substances and immediately after your dental visit take activated charcoal (carbon) or perform the Full Body Detox (which also contains activated charcoal) to remove the chemical toxins and poisons from your body.
You can also drink plenty of vegetable juice containing cilantro as well.
So you see, you have some choices and it's not the end of the world if you do in fact choose to use a conventional dentist or have to due to personal circumstances. See, life is great! We have choices and many wonderful alternative measures, modalities, and products all around us that we should be grateful, thankful, and appreciative of.
