A hypothetical Concept
If you’re a dentist or oral surgeon who regularly extracts teeth, I’m sure that you would have noticed how sometimes, you don’t feel so good after the tooth comes out. Perhaps the headache is worse, or you just think it was a really hard extraction. I’ve spoken to many colleagues who have experienced this. There were times when I was almost unable to work for an hour or two after an extraction.
Bizarre? … Yes and no.
There may be some very good reasons for this, as well as some that the scientific community may find difficult to accept. I will attempt to make some sense of this phenomenon, at least in my own simplistic way. It is merely based on speculation.
When applied in reverse, it may explain the miraculous cures that some people experience after removing dead teeth.
So, let’s start with something called energy. Dr Jacques Beneveniste was a physician and immunologist, who propounded the contentious theory of the “memory of water”. He demonstrated that water has memory and can retain memory. This principle is unacceptable to modern patentable medicine, as it explains how and why homeopathic remedies may work. Homeopathics rely on extreme dilutions of a remedial substances, which are so greatly diluted, that not one molecule of the remedial substance remains in the remedy. Therefore, what is working, is the energy imparted into the water which diluted the remedy. This is vibrational or energy medicine. We are 70% water. Water comes into our bodies and leaves again all the time.
So, What Gets into a Tooth?
Note that the contents of a tooth will leak into the surrounding bone, so that cleaning the abscess and bone in the socket, carries the same energies and chemicals.
Memories
The concept of ‘Memories in water’ is going to possibly drive off many readers, so let’s push it a little further. Many esoteric teachings discuss how memories are not just a cerebral/brain affair but are also retained in every cell of the body. The deeper memories are in the harder tissues such as bone and teeth. In fact, teeth are the hardest tissues in the body, and may retain the deepest and hardest memories. These are also the tissues most interfered with in the body. Some of these memories are old traumatic ones, which the body may be reluctant to part with. This may seem a bit hard to accept but remember that early research (1960 – 1970’s) by Karl Pribram demonstrated that memory is not localised in a particular part of the brain, but like a holographic image, every part of the brain contains all of the memories. Why then should we be surprised if other parts of the body also contain memories. Although the dental and medical worlds like to divide the body into various ‘specialities’/sections and pretend that one does not affect the other, the reality is that our bodies are one unit. Every part is connected, and every part forms the whole. As well as water, electrical and finer energies penetrate our whole beings all the time. Our emotions, likewise, are expressed throughout the body. “The Holographic Universe” by Michael Talbot is one of those wonderful books that connects these concepts from a physics and medical viewpoint.
All matter is energy. Physics has demonstrated this many times. Electrical currents are energy including those in the body. Is it so hard then to consider emotions and thoughts as energy? When this energy is released, as in bringing to consciousness an old, suppressed memory, it is usually expressed psychologically. I believe that it is also expressed physically and emanates far from the body.
To quote the French physiologist Claude Bernard: “When the fact that we come up against does not agree with the predominant theory that we have accepted, we must take the fact and abandon the theory.”
Infection
There are so many bugs that inhabit a tooth. Bacteria, amoeba, yeasts and fungi. Most are anaerobic. They do not need oxygen to live. These micro-organisms produce toxins which alone can damage tissue and have profound psychological effects. A root filled tooth or just a plain old infected one, will be loaded with billions of organisms. The bacteria and their toxins will leak into the bone, blood, lymph, and nerve tissues. They can easily pass through paper masks. When a tooth is drilled, they will be a part of the aerosol that is produced.
Heavy Metals
Dentistry loves to fill the mouth with all sorts of different metals from Gold to Titanium and of course, Mercury. Massive amounts of mercury are stored in the structure of teeth that have been filled with amalgam and this may increase four-fold if a gold crown has been placed on top of the mercury amalgam. This mercury will also be found in the bone.
The fluoride that is put into the drinking water is often contaminated with a range of metals such as lead, mercury, cadmium, chromium, copper, selenium, barium, boron, arsenic, and thallium 6.
Root Filling Cements
Root filling cements break down into various compounds which will not only remain long term in the tooth, but will also spread throughout the body, including the bone surrounding the roots. See the MSDS page for more details. The worst of these is undoubtedly Formaldehyde.
Formaldehyde
As mentioned elsewhere, there is a whole group of endodontists who are dedicated to implanting formaldehyde into every tooth they treat. The American Endodontic Society is set up to promote the placement of a known carcinogen into your body. It is called N2. It is comprised of paraformaldehyde. The technique is called the Sargenti Technique, after the maniac who invented it.
Formaldehyde is also placed in children’s teeth in the procedure called a ‘Pulpotomy”, in the compound created by one of the old presidents of the American Dental Association and is called “Buckley’s FormoCresol”.
It is carcinogenic and has profound psychological effects. Many people are extremely sensitive to formaldehyde.
And What Comes Out with the Tooth
Memories
It is quite common for deep seated memories to be released when a tooth comes out. Most people are shocked when this happens but are also relieved. It’s like the past trauma is no longer running their lives. Sometimes this is accompanied by a cathartic, teary release. Don’t be put off by this. It is a normal wonderful thing to happen. Most patients just need a little reassurance and comforting. Sometimes this will trigger the dentist or assistant as well. As mentioned earlier, these emotions are energy which travels out from the body as well.
Volatile Gasses
The first class of these compounds are the Thio-ethers and Methyl Mercaptans. They are endotoxins produced by the anaerobic bacteria in the decaying tooth structure. They too spread throughout the body. When a dead tooth (root canaled or not) is drilled e.g., to section it, these gasses are released. Of course, we are talking minute amounts as with the other compounds mentioned later.
“Thio-ethers are strongly related, both in their structure and their effect, to mustard gas and other poison gasses used in the First World War. They are amongst the most potent of all carcinogens. They paralyse the aerobic action of cells.” 55
“Methyl mercaptan is a central nervous system depressant that acts on the respiratory centre… Restlessness, headache, staggering, and dizziness may develop; severe exposure may lead to convulsions and coma. Irritation of the mouth, throat, and oesophagus are possible. Dermatitis can occur with chronic exposure to methyl mercaptan.” [1]
Miniscule amounts of these toxins are able to have profound effects on the tissues of the body. They can have profound psychological effects and can make you feel tired and exhausted almost immediately, even with the tiny amounts that a dentist and assistant can be exposed to during the extraction.
Formaldehyde can also be released when a tooth is surgically removed. Even the tiniest amount can have a profound effect on you psychologically.
Heavy Metals
There may be several metals in the tooth and the bone. I am presuming that all amalgam fillings are removed from the tooth before the extraction is started. Mercury will be loaded into the tooth structure of such a tooth and of course will vaporize immediately when a high speed drill hits it. This vapour will pass through a paper mask and is fully respirable. Mercury being a cumulative toxin, may therefore cause an effect when a person is sensitized – this would be most dental personnel. The same is true for lead which is bound strongly in tooth structure. Same is true for fluoride. Same is true for arsenic. Lead and arsenic are common contaminants of fluoridated water.
Aerosols
When using a high speed drill to section a tooth or remove a filling, a vast cloud of aerosols is generated. They are composed of water, blood, saliva and bacteria, viruses, particulate matter. Some of this material will be inhaled by the dental team, even if wearing a paper mask. The rest will land on the uncovered parts of your face and arms and hair. Skin is NOT a barrier. As mentioned earlier, liquids carry memory and, in these cases, you may be affected by this energy. Either way it is a really good idea to wash immediately after the surgery and wash your hair thoroughly each night after work. You don’t want to take this to bed with you.
Dead Tissue
Remember that when you take out a root canaled tooth you are working in a ‘dead tissue environment’. Sometimes this is described as being bathed in black energy. Physical washing is important after the surgery, but you should also do whatever esoteric techniques you feel comfortable with, to protect yourself and your staff. There is nothing wrong with having a candle burning in the surgery. Most people will relate to this even if only subconsciously. Perhaps have a sealable glass jar in which to place the extracted teeth – a new one for each patient. Don’t leave them on the work tray or the floor. Don’t handle them more than you need too, unless autoclaved first. Do NOT autoclave an extracted tooth that still has or even had an amalgam filling. The mercury vapour produced will contaminate the whole work environment and potentially any other premises using the same air conditioning.
