What is Biological Dentistry

Biological dentistry relates to removing major obstacles to healthy living and hasten recovery from chronic illness. It stresses the relationship of oral health to total wellness because of the interconnection of the teeth to body organ. This fact was made known when it was established that the teeth and body organs share the same pathway (meridians). A trained biological dentists focuses on the use of safe or the least toxic restorative materials for dental works and is alert on the unrecognized impact of dental toxins and the hidden infections as a health hazard to unsuspecting patients.
5 Dental Contribution to Illnesses

1. Temporo-Mandibular Disorder (TMD)
    (Misaligned jaw / bad bite)
    Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) refer to a collection of     medical and dental conditions     affecting the TMJ and/or     the muscles of mastication, as well as its contiguous tissue     components.

2. Bio-Incompatibility (allergy) to dental restoration materials

3. Toxicity from dental restoration & other materials (ex.:     Mercury fillings (Amalgam), Fluoride)

4. Electrogalvanization
    ▪ Dissimilar metals produces high dental currents that lead     to galvanic corrosion of the   restoration materials.(ex.:     gold, silver, cobalt, chromium)

5. Dental Interference Field
    ▪ Unerupted teeth
    ▪ Wisdom teeth (impacted or not)
    ▪ Root canal filled teeth
    ▪ Bone cavities
    ▪ Cysts
    ▪ Non-vital/non-root canal filled teeth
    ▪ Granulomas
    ▪ Areas of bone condensation due to healed or
      unhealed osteitis

Mercury toxicity

What is Amalgam filling?

Amalgam filling is also known as mercury or silver filling which is commonly used to restore posterior (back) teeth due to its strength, least time consuming on the manipulation and least costly. It is also called mercury filling because 50% of its composition is mercury, 30% silver, and others are tin, zinc and copper. Mercury is a toxic substance that is poisonous to the nervous system. It is more toxic than lead, arsenic and cadmium. The safe level of mercury exposure to human being is zero. About 440 medical symptoms responded upon amalgam removal to completely eliminate stored mercury in the body. The patient’s immune system is evaluated in preparation to amalgam removal. Immune system buildup at least 1 to 2 weeks is undertaken to prepare the patient to a greater risk of unexpected bodily reaction of an abrupt heavy metal removal.

Preparation consists of vitamins and minerals supplement intake, nutritional counseling and lifestyle modifications.

Psychological Disturbances

Irritability, nervousness, shyness or timidity, loss of Memory, lack of attention, loss of self-confidence, lack of self-control, fits of anger, decline of intellect anxiety.

Oral Cavity Disorders

Gingivitis, stomatitis, foul breath, metallic taste, bleeding gums, alveolar bone loss, loosening of teeth, excessive salivation, tissue pigmentation, leukoplakia (white patches), ulceration of gingiva, palate and tongue, and burning sensation in mouth & throat.

Gastrointestinal Effects

Gastrointestinal problems, abdominal cramps, constipation or diarrhea.

Systemic Effects

Cardiovascular

Feeble and irregular pulse, pain or pressure in chest, irregular heartbeat (tachycardia, pradycardia).

Neurological

Ringing or noise in the ears, chronic or frequent headaches, fine tremors (hands, feet, lips, eyelids, tongue).

Respiratory

Emphysema, persistent cough, shallow & irregular respiration.

Immunological

Allergies, sinusitis  asthma, rhinitis (inflammation of the nose), lymphadenopathy, especially cervical (neck).

Endocrine

Subnormal temperature, excessive perspiration, cold, clammy skin, especially hands & feet.

Others:

Fatigue, joint pains, speech disorders, anemia, edema (swelling), bulemia, loss of weight, muscle weakness, yeast syndrome, myesthenia gravis, parkinson’s disease, alzheimer’s disease, learning disabilities, rheumatoid arthritis, dim or double vision, hypoxia (lack oxygen), lupus erythematosus, ankylosis spondylitis, loss of appetite (anorexia), multiple chemical sensitivities.

Severe Cases

Hallucinations, manic depression, panic attacks, schizophrenia, obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Other Side Effects:

Faintness, stiffness, eczema, tremors, nausea, weakness, weight loss, bloody vomit, cancer, birth defects, mottled teeth, loss of appetite, sores in the mouth; black tar like stools, stomach cramps or pain, pain and aching of bones, unusual increase in saliva; white, black or brown  discoloration of teeth, osteoporosis & especially hip fractures  in areas where water is fluoridated, aging, decreases the ability of the White Blood Cells (WBC) to phagocytes or destroy, bacteria & other foreign agents.

Flouride Toxicity

What are Fluorides?

Fluorides are organic and inorganic naturally occurring compounds that contain fluorine element. It is generally colorless, more or less soluble in water that either can take the form of solid, liquid and gas. Fluorides have large amount of usage in the chemical industry such as in the aluminum production, drinking water fluoridation and the manufacture of fluoridated dental preparations.

How fluoride affects health?

At high level, fluorides can result in tooth and bone damage. Excessive amount of fluoride can lead to dental fluorosis thus prevent the normal maturation of the enamel during the period of tooth development in children up to 8 years old. On severe cases it could also cause skeletal fluorosis which increased risk of bone fracture. Countries with high level of fluoride like Africa, China and India are very much prone to this condition.

Biological Dentistry Guidelines

Dentist trained in the pioneering field of biological dentistry are required to observe strict protocols on amalgam removal, extraction of dead tooth/teeth and surgery on bone cavitation especially on medically compromised patients, and in particular those who are suffering from cancer.

Actual Cases

Inflammation & darkening improvements 2 days after dead teeth extractions



Patient #9 – F, 58 YRS. OLD
Complaints: Dark, inflamed, and painful legs (for 2 years)
Treatment: Removal of dead teeth, removal of amalgam (mercury) fillings, TMJ therapy, and denture fabrication using the safest biocompatible dental materials.



Breast Cancer Survivor

Complaints:
Bad bite, metals in the mouth, presence of dead teeth.
Management: Following the protocol of building-up the immune system through toxins removal in the mouth like dead teeth, metals, mercury fillings, Correction of misaligned bite, Usage of most safest biocompatible dental materials.

Protocols for amalgam removal:

1. Using high vac-suction machine
2. Isolation of the tooth with amalgam by rubber dam.
3. Copious amounts of water application.
4. Utilizing mercury vapor ionizer and air room ionizer to prevent mercury vapor spread and inhalation.
5. Follow sequential schedule amalgam removal     according to 7, 14, 21 days protocol.
6. Nasal oxygen administration.
7. Conscious sedation preferably to anxious patients     with multiple amalgam fillings.
