The Body always heals itself given the proper conditions. If you are Alkaline, your tooth pain will heal. If you are Acid, it won't. Diet is, and continues to be, everything. I have a cracked composite filling with an exposed nerve. It was a little sensitive at first, but is fine now. I also have an abscessed tooth which is doing fine without a root canal. My mother thinks I'm going to die any moment because she read poison will spread throughout the body......WY
