Dental related nerve pain and illness are more common than anyone realizes. I was fortunate to have a doctor who had witnessed many nerve-pain, dental-related cases before and thought to ask the question that changed my life, “Have you ever had a root canal?” If he had not stepped in, I may be in a wheelchair today.
Recently, I solved another mystery relating to a tooth and chronic nerve pain in my left shoulder-blade region. For two years, I've been dealing with an injury from my dog, Barney, pulling on the leash. Since the fall of 2013, taking a deep breath or using my left arm has been extremely painful. No more yoga, or lifting even the lightest weight. I've had to switch to the other arm to carry my purse and groceries, and at times, the pain drove me to distraction and resulted in many nights of lost sleep. My adrenal glands took a beating again and illness crept in.
Throughout that time, I had my regular dental cleanings and kept muscle testing my teeth to rule out any connection, and all seemed okay. I had an MRI of my shoulder (inconclusive), my neck (inconclusive), and had every theory thrown at me -- it's a rib injury, it's in the neck, it's a tear in the shoulder area, it's in the thoracic spine, and so on. Chiropractic helped, but not for more than a day. I tried physical therapy -- which I couldn't tolerate, laser therapy, massage therapy, ultrasound, traction and acupuncture. I started suspecting it might be a tooth earlier this year, but when I went for my cleaning again in May, all was well.
However, after that cleaning, the left-side facial twitching I had begun having earlier in the year worsened and my left ear was killing me; then I started having nagging pain in my face, and I knew. I muscle tested myself and it showed the pain and twitching was from my only remaining wisdom tooth, upper left side. I consulted the tooth chart and confirmed that the wisdom tooth correlates to that shoulder, neck, thoracic and rib area. I went to my alternative doctor and had her check it using NIS, NET (see below) and muscle testing. She narrowed it even further by finding it was a "root problem" with that tooth.
I went to my dentist two days later, told him what we had found and he proceeded with a panoramic X-ray. It showed nothing suspicious. He is an holistic dentist, so he muscle tested and came to the same finding we did, but he was perplexed by the clean pano X-ray, so he took a bitewing X-ray. It showed a slight "reabsorption" of the root. My body was trying to reabsorb the tooth. (Gross!) He pulled it and guess what? The nerve pain in my shoulder stopped!
That was July first, so now I'm working on fixing the muscle imbalances, the intramuscular pain, and realigning the vertebrae that changed positions as a result of trying to protect the area from the constant nerve irritation. There's no doubt it all started with an injury and then the bacteria from the tooth settled in the nerve and wreaked havoc.
Two years of suffering, once again, because of a tooth. I'm not certain why it didn't show up as weak until now -- I suspect it is due to the fact that it correlated with my husband dying, and our bodies will only show us what it most prominent.
My grieving process over Ken, then our dog Barney several months later, overshadowed the mechanics of what was going on back then. I'll explain in more detail the way muscle testing and quantum medicine works, but suffice it to say, it is like the onion I referred to earlier, layered, with emotions overruling mechanics. Once I moved back to Missouri this past May, I grieved all over again. I let it out and processed; I cried and cried, and knew that I was cleansing my soul. Once I processed the emotions I had been holding in, the mechanics of the dying tooth showed up. I was amazed - though I should be used to how all this works with my sensitive wiring.

Dr. George Meinig, D.D.S., root-canal specialist and author, published twenty-five years of research from Dr. Weston Price about the dangers of root canals and the delicate nature of dental issues, in his book Root Canal Cover-Up. He wrote about Dr. Price’s first case (around the year 1900), when he removed a root canal (tooth) from a woman with severe arthritis and immediately implanted it under the skin of a rabbit. Within two days, the rabbit was crippled with arthritis and the woman found relief. He continued for years with smaller bits of teeth and many diseases until he was injecting tooth powder, always with the same results. One-hundred-percent of the time, heart disease was transferred from infected patients to rabbits. Other diseases were about eighty percent -- kidney disease, ALS/MS, arthritis, and autoimmune diseases such as Lupus, Crones, and Rheumatoid Arthritis.
Dr. Price found that people with strong immune systems were able to stay healthy, despite having root canals. He also found that those healthy individuals, when faced with anything that overly-stressed their immune systems, such as an accident, the death of a loved-one, a severe illness or anything severely taxing, allowed the bacteria trapped in the root-canalled teeth to escape into the body and cause any number of diseases, or a "failure of the body defense system."

When a root canal is performed (41,000 in the United States daily as of 2012), the dentist will drill through the enamel and dentin in order to clean out the root pulp, which is all blood vessels and nerves hooked to your jawbone by the periodontal ligaments. When the hollow root is filled, all the germs and bacteria get packed in and have nowhere to go but out into the body through miles of inaccessible, untreated tubules in which germs and toxins can hide, grow stronger, then mutate into super-bugs. These super-bugs can travel to your heart, lungs, eyes, stomach, mouth, brain, nervous system and now, the latest research shows a link to cancer.
Dr. Robert Jones, in a five-year study of three-hundred breast cancer cases, found ninety-three percent had root canals, seven percent had other dental issues, and tumors always occurred on the same side of the body as the root canal or dental issue. Another physician, Dr. Josef Issels, treated terminal cancer patients for forty years and found ninety-seven percent had root canals.
Doctors and dentists who are knowledgeable about this topic recommend never having a root canal. Even if you’re well after the procedure, as the aging process happens, immune systems become weaker and trouble can start. If you’ve already had a root canal, have the tooth removed, even if it looks and feels fine, and replace it with a non-invasive option (bridge, partial, spider). If you have it removed, make sure your dentist removes the tooth AND the dental ligament along with 1mm of the bony socket to reduce risk of bacteria from infected tissue being left behind.
If you have infected teeth that need to be extracted, get them out of your body and opt for false teeth (no implants) and watch chronic illness, and aches and pains dissipate or even disappear, and watch your health improve.
To find a biological dentist who will be aware of this procedure, visit toxicteeth.org, or search the internet for an holistic dentist in your area. True natural dentists tend to lay low in order to avoid backlash from the American Dental Association, and may only be found through word-of-mouth.
If you’re living with chronic pain or auto-immune disease, a wise step would be to start checking your teeth. Even if you’ve never had a root canal, subtle dental issues can cause a myriad of life-altering symptoms and diseases. I am living proof that something as simple as a botched filling or a dying tooth can change a life forever.
If you suspect your teeth are making you ill:
Find a practitioner who performs any version of muscle testing or energy healing such as:
Applied Kinesiology (AK)
Total Body Modification (TBM)
Neuro Emotional Technique (NET)
Applied Psycho Neurology (APN)
Autonomic Response Testing (ART)
Neurolink (NIS)
Touch for Health
These practitioners can help you discover if it is dental, then you can go on to more testing for confirmation and fix the issue. Generally, you will not find these people on the internet. Chiropractors commonly use AK, but the rest of the list usually practices quietly, so you’ll often find these amazing healers through networking. Once you witness your body showing you what’s wrong in ways that blood work will not, the healing will begin.
