Gum Disease Treatment - Death and dentistry

The title of Dr. Fischer’s book, Death and Dentistry, and the
above statement by Dr. E.C. Rosenow, M.D., may hit dentists
and patients like a hard blow to the pit of the stomach. Somehow,
when Dr. Price said the members of the dental profession are
going to have to face up and reassess their role in the cause
of the tremendous increase of degenerative diseases, we never
thought of these afflictions as causing death, but merely as being
treatable illnesses.

Now here comes a physician who writes a book about teeth entitled
Death and Dentistry, published in 1940, seventeen years after
Dr. Price’s two books, urging the dental profession to wake up.
He points out how many of our patients develop endocarditis,
a chronic appendix, or a bleeding ulcer, and often end up with
their illnesses worsening and their immune system about -
or perhaps they develop another disease such pneumonia,
and in time may even die as the result of a focal infection.

Most surgeries that are performed for various degenerative
conditions involve the amputation of some body part.
These operations usually stop the immediate pain, arrest
the progress of the disease temporarily, and lengthen
life for a while.

When such diseases occur, people are willing to submit to
a surgical removal of one of their body parts for relief when
it would make more sense to remove the focal infected tooth
or tonsils causing all the trouble.

After all, teeth are easily accessible, are relatively safe to remove,
heal quickly, and extraction is a much more cost efficient operation.
The dental profession and dentists generally have been noted for
their long history of educating people about the benefits of saving
their teeth and preventing dental disease.

For the most part, we can say that dentists today believe in the
focal infection theory - that is, that teeth can harbor infection which
can be transferred to other organs or tissues. Most practing dentists
have had patients who were cured of a medical problem when an oral
infection was removed.
