Thank you so much to both of you for your replys.I am happy to say that my pain is subsiding finally.Although the healing has been long and painful I will no doubt have my remaining root canaled teeth removed.i have 5 more.This time though i will be going to a dentist knowledgable in this stuff.I am very interested in the oil pulling.I have been reading much about it and have visited the forum.I am very excited to try it....but scared at the same time.Very scared of stirring up a bunch of infection and toxins.I have always had problematic teeth.Lots of sensitivity,I currently still have 5 root canals.Is oil pulling okay to do with root canals?I guess I just need to research it more and then be a big girl about it!! I really appreciate your reponses.it is nice to know there is a place to go to for advice and information on alternative care.Any other thought and advice is appreciated.Thank you!
