My dad is 78 years old and relatively healthy, (macular degeneration(eyes), starting to have a few heart issues, otherwise been great and active his whole life).
He has had more root canals(at least 8 or more), pulled teeth, bridges, and fillings than anyone I know. He started having these in his 30's. Actually he now only has left a few of his own teeth, and has false teeth.
He has not had cancer. My point is, the root canals have not killed him. He's still going strong.
I just think most people eventually have a root canal, so of course most people that get cancer have had root canals. Seems clear to me.

You could say 97% of cancer patients wore blue jeans, or drank coffee. I'm not saying fillings are good because they contain mercury, but most people have had fillings so this is not a definitive statistic. If most people had fillings, most people would die of cancer. Since that is not the case I'll remain skeptical.
And hopefully the statistical course they take wont include statistical comparisons between root canals and blue jeans because anyone trying to compare a person wearing blue jeans,which pose absolutely no health risks whatsoever and getting cancer,with getting a root canal,a very real health concern and getting cancer,is being more than a little ridiculous...

I agree, many people don't really know how statistics work. Which is why, if they really want to understand and discuss them they should take some type of statistical course.

I have been following this root canal epic for a while, I find a lot of so call "expert holistics" that claim root canals are deadly and can cause many problems, but they also recommend extractions of no only of the root canal but also bone in the jaw, followed by many treatments as holistic expert believe that it doesn't stop with the extraction of the root canal.
To me is also many incidents and problems that this so call procedures can do to people after having part of their jaw bone cut out.
I had a root canal done 15 years ago, my health has been fine, but lately I am starting to have pain in the molar where the root canal was done specially when I put pressure on the tooth, the pain is not bad just bothersome, comes and go.
Routing ex rays do not shows anything wrong, but I am going to pursue this issue as I got the feeling that something is wrong with the root canal after all this years.
Nothing stands in the way of greed,not even human life...

Yea I understand that, but it seems that everything causes cancer nowadays. I have an Aunt whose a dentist, and I can assure you, she isn't intentionally trying to give people cancer. Its probably true that it leads to cancer, along with millions of other things.

I know there is said to be a connection between the metal and cancer. If you talk to these dentist and they tell you the mercury will not hurt you ask them to open their mouth, you will see GOLD, not silver amalgam.
Mercury is poison and they put it in your mouth, but even the other metals can be bad for you in some cases.
I know is said to be link to multiple sclerosis from the metal also.
There is suppose to be another link with cancer and those liver flukes, or parasites.. My brother was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, I treated him for pancreas flukes, same as liver flukes but in different location. When they cut him open two weeks later they could not find any cancer, I ask the doctor where the cancer was and he said I don't know it'sgone now. I didn't say anything would be waste of time anyhow.
That reminds me I need to go feed my parasites, just in case.
I remember now, the connection is the metal will poison you, then the flukes move in and attack the weaken organ or body part, this in turn will cause the cancer.edit on 19-2-2012 by googolplex because: (no reason given)
Just wait and in 20 or 30 years people will start dropping like flies from over exposure by microwaves and cell phones and the experts will all be told to say they were unaware at the time of the hidden threats and dangers that those things posed for everyone and they'll be lying as usual...

Yea I worry about that now, I always keep my phone in my right front pocket, and you've got to think, thats where it spends most of its time, thats probably the most likely spot, if not your head.

You need the sun, supplements are ok but most are radiated and chemical substitutes even the organic ones in health stores.
Sun Sun Sun is needed always.
The studies done in the world and in BC, showed the opposite of what they thought. They thought oudoor workers would have higher rates, but instead they had the least rates of cancer.

Diet, is pat of it. Radiation is a big factor as well.
And lack of real vitamins and iodine.
There are enormous factors, all tied together in tptb cohesive corruption of everything they get their hands on.edit on 19-2-2012 by Unity_99 because: (no reason given)

Want to know why this is crap? There are 40 million root canals performed annually in the US. There are less than 600,000 deaths caused by cancer each year. That is about 1.5% of the number of root canals performed.
I would love to see his information to see where he derived the 97% had root canals, do terminally ill cancer patients talk about root canals they had 20 years ago? I somehow don't think so. This guy is a quack.
