I am very intrigued by this, because I have poor molars and a few root canals. I wonder if the same pitfalls are also found with implants. Looking forward to more information.

I have spoken to biological dentists who are adamant against implants as well as root canals.

What are their arguments against them? My biological dentist does not seem to mind them, but recommend cubic zirconia implants, not titanium.

Usually, the problem is with titanium implants, and not the cubic zirconia. Titanium conducts electricity and not so good for the body.

I wondered about the implants also. I had a friend spend $50,000 on a mouthful. She was gone from breast cancer in less than a year.

This sequence of events, first the root canals and then the cancer, is heard at my cancer clinic very often. We haven't yet systematically reviewed data. That would take hundreds of hours of research reviewing people's files. I would like to think we will get around to doing that, but possibly not.

Breast cancer seems to correlate with the meridians in the mouth and where the root canal was done.

I wonder if there is a chart or information about tooth position and associated organ system that could be found.

I had a neighbor who passed away from breast cancer about 20-yrs. ago. She was convinced that her problem stemmed from a root canal she had done a few years prior. That was the first time that I had heard of the association. She was, no doubt, correct.

And of course, I think we all know people with implants who seem just fine.
