Following are excerpts from the Tooth Truth book.

INTRODUCTION

This book will discuss disturbing information. Most people have accepted whatever treatment their dentist has recommended without question. No one wants to learn that what dentists have had implanted in their bodies is a source of growing levels of substances that can wreck their immune system and destroy their most precious gift, good health.

Most of us expect good health, even while doing most everything we can to undermine it. We eat too much and rest too little. We actively seek vices that can slowly or quickly destroy us. We take unnecessary risks, as if we earn points for foolhardy behavior. The last thing any of wants to know is that there is another major source of ill health that is to some degree affecting all of us right this minute and will probably worsen every day. It is easy to turn a deaf ear to this information, but ignorance does not make it safe.

FDA ON MERCURY FILLINGS

Mercury in fillings has never been approved by the FDA, which has avoided classifying amalgam at all. The FDA says mercury fillings are a "reaction" product made by dentists, and therefore it is a dentist's responsibility to assure the product's safety. Does that make you feel safe?

SKILL LEVEL OF DENTISTS

Unfortunately, patients have little ability to tell one dentist from another. Many believe that all dentists are the same, performing procedures equally well. If you think about that belief for a few seconds, you will realize how wrong it is. Patients who believe they can go to a big clinic staffed with dentists recently graduated from dental school, and still get quality care at rock bottom prices are deluding themselves.

A TOOTH IS AN ORGAN

A tooth is an organ, just as the heart or kidney or any bone in the body is an organ. An abscessed or gangrenous tooth is not only a dead tooth, it is a dead organ. The body does not like dead organs. The immune system does not recognize this now dead tissue as a part of itself and immediately sets out to eliminate or isolate it. The system must fight for as long as the tooth remains in the body and in many instances, it must fight against bacteria and toxins left after the tooth has been extracted.
