If I sound like I'm getting preachy, it's just because this comes up over and over again, and it's one of the things which nearly destroyed my life, from which I am now most amazingly recovered. Despite being very busy, it's something I can't stop writing about. This subject has had a profound impact on my life, both for good and bad, and in the end, the remedies were amazingly cheap and simple.
>Sorry to ask a silly question but what is DMSO?< DiMethylSulfOxide. A sulfur compound that in liquid form is anti-inflammatory, antiviral, somewhat antibacterial, and is a solvent that can carry other substances through the skin and body tissues. For that last part, you should be careful with it. You don't rub it willy nilly on skin that has other substances on it. >Incidentally I have read that oil of oregano is toxic, is there any literature on its safety?< Sure it is- how would it kill germs if it wasn't? But you'll never use enough of it to hurt yourself for several reasons: It works FAST, a little goes a long way, and most of it that you buy is prediluted with olive oil. Even diluted, it's so hot you can't believe it, and using it undiluted is nearly unthinkable. Get the book- The Cure is in the Cupboard. A few words about Hulda Clark- it's not her theories of disease that I have a problem with, it's her cures; she seems to overlook the simple. I have firsthand experience of parasite infestation in my own body, but as far as I can discern, her methods would not have shown it but a much simpler method did (Salt & C). For those of us with root canals, before we learned that we could have avoided this misery altogether, there is nothing to do now but learn how to live with them. Who could argue with wanting to keep your own teeth for as long as possible? Sure there are circumstances that dictate removal, but if you can heal that tooth and still chew with it, and do it really cheap, wouldn't you want to do it? BTW, I've spent multiple thousands on my mouth, and being self-employed, I lost money at work while doing it. Cracks? Teeth can heal their own cracks if you get rid of infection and other impediments such as fluoride and glycerin laden dentifrices. Infections under crowns? They cause a gas buildup- bacteria farts- under the crown. When you bite down the crown pressures the gas, which pressures the nerve. Ouch. It can be cured. I've done it. Root canals? At first they can be a Godsend, or so I thought, until after three years when the gutta percha begins to shrink away from the inner walls of the canal, leaving room for bacteria to thrive, and this especially happens if the root of the tooth extends into any area of potential infection- such as into the sinuses, which is my problem. It can be fixed, even if it has to be done on a repeating basis, I've done it. >My father was a dentist and always advised never to have root canals in upper jaw teeth as infection there can cause serious health problems. Bottom jaw OK, top jaw not.< He was right, because of the sinuses, but the problem can still be overcome. OK, right here I need to say that if you have upper teeth problems and sinus problems, you won't get over either until you deal with both. To stop sinus problems you must stop eating allergy inducing foods and heal your gut dysbiosis. Sinus problems start in the gut and with the foods you eat. Nasal allergies, allergies to things you breathe in through your nose, will stop when you fix your diet (no MODERN grains, read Mercola's No Grain Diet), heal your gut (probiotics and colostrum) and stop eating sugar and simple carbs. This does not mean you will never have a nasal reaction again. It's pine pollen season where I live. Pine pollen is not considered an allergen, but the grains are so big that they'll still lodge in your sinuses and cause irritation, which yields mucous, which allows bacteria to thrive and a sinus and/or tooth infection to develop. This happened to me about 3 weeks ago and was the cause of my recent need to use my Oil of Oregano and DMSO protocol again. OK, here's what I've developed and refined so far, and none of this really originates with me except maybe the idea to combine Oil of Oregano with DMSO for acute problems... Stop using all commercial dentifrices now. Of course, flossing is part of good dental hygiene. I regularly floss and keep "Brushpicks" at the dining table and in all my vehicles. Start brushing with the mildest bar soap without glycerin or petroleum that you can get your hands on. It needs to be white. Do not use a soap that is highly alkaline, no matter if it is pure or white; that doesn't qualify as mild. I use a pure coconut oil soap from Tropical Traditions, but it's backordered now. Make a lather with your brush and CS, then add one drop of OoO (Oil of Oregano) on your brush. The purpose of the mild soap is to clean your teeth but not leave a coating of glycerin or anything else that interferes with remineralization. For extra cleaning once in a while, I use baking soda or food grade diatomaceous earth. Simply brushing this way will slowly get rid of non-acute infections; it got rid of my pain under my right rear lower crown. For acute infections- ONE drop of OoO on a Qtip, rub the tooth and surrounding gum. Now dip the other end of the Qtip in DMSO, but do not have it soaking wet, shake off excess, and rub the same area. If you overdo this, if you use too much of either substance, you will shortly be running around the house screaming. MORE IS NOT BETTER!!! If more is needed, it needs to be more instances of application, not more at one time. I have done this twice now to the same tooth, the tooth that harbored infections for many years before being root canalled, because it extends into my upper left sinus; the tooth that stopped most of my infections for three years after I had it root canalled; the tooth that started harboring infection again when the gutta percha shrank. Both times it only took one application to stop the infection, and it was literally over in minutes. The first time I badly overdid it and paid dearly with a throbbing headache for 24 hours. The second time was not bad at all, it was at night and I was able to sleep with neither tooth pain or ill effects from the application. I am presently experimenting with oil-pulling using virgin coconut oil. I want to see if it makes a difference in plaque formation. CS long ago gave me great relief from a bad plaque problem, but I still want to do better. I was already eating coconut oil for its weight loss and Candida fighting properties, so now I might even make it do triple or quadruple duty.
