Re: Pulled Tooth?
We had discussed this situation at length over the past months, tentatively agreeing to sort of play it by ear.... or by tooth, at the time each tooth got extracted. The tooth today came out as he'd planned, no complications. While he did remove the periodontal ligament (important, since leaving it intact is essentially leaving a dead hunk of tissue in place to possibly cause future problems), he did not do a cavitation. To be clear, in the terms he explained, this means he did not drill into the jawbone below where the tooth was removed to see if that area was infected or exhibiting any necrosis as a result of having housed mercury/metal for such a long time. It is interesting that as we discussed this today, he went into telling the story of the training he got when learning the Huggins protocol, and since that time, for all the cavitations he's ever done, he's never had one case where the jaw bone had been compromised to the extent Huggins has documented. (IE> he's never seen a puddle of black puss come trickling out of a jaw after entered into via cavitation-drilling. For this reason, he's taken a more conservative approach, rather than doing them always, he does them based upon other condtions (problems, complications, or patient demand, etc) that may crop up on the way to removing a tooth such as this.
All my root canals (each which were also crowned) were done during the past 4 years (IE> they had not had a long time to incubate.... so to speak) so this may have contributed to the lack of complications......... the irony.....when I first started to learn/study the situation that eventualy lead me to contemplate their removal (starting about 20 months ago) it had only been about 10 months prior to that that I'd actually finished paying off the blasted things.
