Re: Recent bad dental experience

Sounds like you needed the root canals.... You shouldn't fill a carious
infected tooth without a root canal....

Last month an amalgum filling fell out of one of my molars and I saw
a dentist about having it replaced. The dentist indicated that too
much of the tooth was missing and he advised me to have a root canal
performed. He said this was preferable to having the tooth extracted,
in his opinion.

I lost amalgam fillings in both of my upper first molars teeth numbers
3 and 14, the dentists recommended root canal ( my teeth have root
canals, I do not need more of them, they refer to the pulpectomy
procedure? performed by an endotontist for 1000 dollars) or
extraction, I chose to do neither of these procedures, I have stopped
eating nuts, they packed tooth number 14, the pressure of chewing
fractured and broke the tooth off at the gumline, I still have most of
tooth number 3, I have stopped eating meat and eggs to keep down the
pulpitis, I eat raw vegetable salad from my garden chopped in a food
processor, I seek a dentist to fill the tooth with acrylic
photopolymerizable bis-gma, (non-metallic tooth colored filling),

Chemistry" on website chemistry.org of American Chemical Society.
