Hi again,
I'm just going through the mail, trying to catch up a bit. I have been told also that the teeth can shift if you leave a hole. They probably do, because they shift even if there isn't a hole. As you getolder your teeth tend to move forward, and become crooked, even if they were straight when you were younger. Mine sure were doing that. On the other hand, after having a tooth pulled a couple years back, it seemed to slow itdown, because they weren't all squeezing together so much, lol. I have all my teeth out now, since the end of last August, and I have not regretted it one tiny bit. I hope to be getting dentures in a couple more months, and will let you know what else I learn then, that might be helpful. (The hypoallergenic materials cannot be relined, so your jaw needs at least 6 months to heal and for the bone resorption that will occur, etc. to all get done. Besides the cost, I'd rather have it done right once. Another consideration for dentures is many have metal frameworks in them, and those lovely pink ones you see are pink because they are laden with cadmium, so you'd just be trading one neurotoxic metal for another. There are others w/o it in however, if you're not insistent on that pink color. So really do your research before letting any denturist try and talk you into anything. ~ Snoshoe --- In [hidden email], Loni <loni326@...> wrote: > > Hi Jennie, >  > Thanks for sharing you experience!

Before I determined I had EMS allmy teeth were in constant pain. I was serious when I told my husband if itcontinued I would consider having all my teeth pulled and wearing dentures. When I realized I had EMS I knew that EMS was what was effecting my teeth- because I had stopped using my cell phone because the pain was too intense when using my cell. I asked my dentist about having my fillings removed,he did not recommend it - he kept thinking I was talking about mercury. I found a dentist who specialized in replacing amalgams with porcelain. And he did it in a safe way to make sure there was no ingestion of the amalgam. There were a couple of teeth that because of the number of amalgams or tooth decay the dentist could not replace with porcelain. My dentist recommended root canals or removable appliances. I passed on the removable appliancesbecause I think most have some metal clasps or something and > the idea of putting metal in my mouth makes me shudder (I don't even eat with metal utensils). Long story short - I opted to have my teeth removed. I went to the oral surgeon who had removed one of my teeth a few years earlier - I had needed a root canal but opted for removed since it was in the back. He advised me against having my teeth pulled but complied to my request. Anyhow, I now have 3 teeth missing (1 top, 2 bottom) - I hope you aren'ttrying to visualize that! Luckily, they are all towards the back and are not noticeable. It's been 4 years and I have not had any problem with occlusion but I know it can be an issue. > > Only you can decide what is best but I know when I think of the pain I was in I would not hesitate to have my teeth removed if I had to do it again.I would suggest before making your decision trying to get information about the root canal/appliance from a dentist who understands Multiple ChemicalSensitivities and Electromagnetic Sensitivities. If they understand your sensitivities they may give you a more definitive answer. > > Good luck, > > Jennie > > FYI - I still very rarely use my cell phone. It doesn't hurt my teeth like it use to (I do have a general feeling of uneasiness) but I figure if it was bad for me before it's bad for me now. > > ____________ _________ _________ __ > From: K <kfarming@yahoo. com> > To: eSens@yahoogroups. com > Sent: Fri, February 12, 2010 12:41:28 AM > Subject: Re: [eSens] Need some help with Dental Problem > > You would need a root canal is that what I'm understanding? UGH! Yeah I'dhave it pulled and use a denture/retainer of some sort at night. Root canals I would think way worse than a crown.

It's so hard to decide what to do and like me you want your money to count and not have to redo something and throw more money at it. Since my root was fine, we decided to replace the crown and went fine for me. It's not for everyone and every doctor dentist is different. Please let me/us know how it goes. Will be thinking about you. Let us know exactly when it's happening so I can be praying for you too! > Kris > > ____________ _________ _________ __ > From: Loni <loni326@yahoo. com> > To: eSens@yahoogroups. com > Sent: Thu, February 11, 2010 8:51:34 PM > Subject: Re: [eSens] Need some help with Dental Problem > > Hi Kris, > > Thanks for your correspondence.

One that sounds ok is a partial removable denture that I could wear at night. Just to prevent my teeth from moving.

I think it too had cracked but not all the way to the rootlike the one extracted had been. It had an amalgam in it before that but with the first crown she had removed all the amalgam before putting on the crown. So the 2nd time, all he had to do to remove and replace and really not bother the root. > > I am very sensitive to glues as well but with the electrodermal testing done previously with all the dentist's materials we were able to use the ones I tested well for and none of the others. > > I hope this calms some of your fears.

Having no problems from all that being done. The dentist even gave me oxygen to wear during the procedure and turned off the flourescent lights for me. I wore my shielding cloth. Did have Vit C iv, glutathione, and calcuimEDTA done right after to help me detox ASAP that what probably helped the most. > > I wish you could go to my dentist in Minneapolis. He was great. If I everhave any other teeth issues I'm going back to him. He wasn't much more cost wise than a reg dentist.

It's been since July 2008. I seem to have no other problems upper or lower. Now this November I did have my amalgams and crown removed. I first went to a Naturepath and wastested with the materials that the biological dentist uses. Then took those results to the dentist that those were the materials he used. Not a single issue afterward. > Kris > > ____________ _________ _________ __ > From: Evie <evie15422@yahoo. com> > To: eSens@yahoogroups. com > Sent: Wed, February 10, 2010 1:03:26 PM > Subject: Re: [eSens] Need some help with Dental Problem > > Hi Loni, > > I am in a similar boat--I can't get tooth work done due to intolerance tothe materials the dentist wants to use. In my case, tho, I do not have those materials already in my mouth. You are in deep doo-doo, Dear! ;) My sympathies. > > Did the oral surgeon think the bottom teeth would be okay without a tooththere at all? The problem here is if one tooth is removed, then all the teeth around that tooth are often weakened and eventually usually fall out--your entire bite will likely be affected unless you get a crown or partial plate. But, in my case, the removal of a bottom tooth was okay because I needed more space between my bottom teeth, and so they used splints and retainers to help fill in the space by moving all my other teeth further apart after they (purposely) pulled a tooth . > > I would think using a retainer would be doable. You would have to wear the retainer almost all of the time, probably tho. (I had to wear one all thetime for about a decade to keep my jaw centered. Sounds awful, but they can make you a splint that is barely visable and I got used to wearing it, soit didn't bother me.) Depends on your lifestyle whether that is a possibility or not. I would personally ask the oral surgeon if you could go withoutthe crown replacement altogether and do temporary splints/retainers to move the bottom teeth to fill in the gap. It probably depends where the tooth is, whether this would work or not. Also, this will be $$$. It is a good option if you otherwise have great teeth and it beats crowns and partials andhaving to forever wear a retainer. You are relatively young, so I would think this a good investment, if it would work for your situation. > > Hope it works out well for you, Loni, whatever you decide, > Diane > > --- On Wed, 2/10/10, Loni <loni326@yahoo. com> wrote: > > From: Loni <loni326@yahoo. com> > Subject: [eSens] Need some help with Dental Problem > To: eSens@yahoogroups. com > Date: Wednesday, February 10, 2010, 11:43 AM > > Hi Everyone, > > Need some help if you have any experiences with this? > > I went to get this tooth pulled today because I just can't stand it. The oral surgeon wouldn't do it until I see the endodontist there. If he says I'm reacting to the materials then he will pull it for me. I said how can hetell ME if I am reacting or not. GEEZ. He also wants to check for any fracture in the tooth but the other endodontist would have seen that. > > I just talked to the endodontic today he said the root filling was made of rubber & then there is a sealer of zinc oxide. Well, no wonder, I can't even go in to a tire store with out is literally dropping me to the floor. Then of course there is the glue: zinc oxide & eugenol? > > So the problem the oral surgeon said with pulling the tooth is the occlusion. I will eventually lose the upper tooth because it will drop due to no tooth to hit. > > The thing with that is I wear a retainer at night so maybe that would be prevented? What do you all think? > > I still think pulling is the best. All of that material is in the root; rubber & glue. Then you have the plastic(resin) filling on top.. Then they slap a crown made up of all kinds of metals & procelain. Of course you have to have more glue to make it stick. > > What a nightmare.
