Female: What happens to the roots of good teeth when they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re ground down for a bridge?<\/p>\n
Daniel: Actually, you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t grind the roots at all. Let me see if I can find, here, something that I could use to\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 Yeah. So, this is a good example. So the roots would be down below here, and all we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re seeing right here is just the crown of the tooth, so the root would be all the way down here,\u00c2\u00a0 so nothing happens at all to the root, and what you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re taking is a couple of millimeters off of the outside of the crown only. So it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s just the outside of the tooth part itself, but not the root. The root stays in place. And actually, those are the two pillars that actually hold the bridge together with the middle part attached to it.<\/p>\n
First female in audience: It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s very interesting. Thank you for all that. I do have a question. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve got two questions. The first question, you talk about the bioceramic. Is it done in Europe \u00e2\u20ac\u201c you said that it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s done in Europe, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m French, I just wanted to know if it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s done in Europe. That\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the first question. And my first question, you talk about the bioceramic and the interference, the magnet interference.<\/p>\n
Daniel: With the ceramics?<\/p>\n
First female in audience: With everything that you told. And I wanted to ask you if you have information such as links, surveys, and things like that because when I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m testing people, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m a kinesiologist. Amongst ten people, eight have the problem. And you spoke about the meridian. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s absolutely true. Most of the time, I [inaudible]. And to go further to what you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re saying, there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a dentist in France, in south of France, it may be only three dentists like that in France, we are sixty million, and it did a YouTube fantastic film, once he had a patient. This woman couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t even put her arm more than this high, so she started from the ground and then she did that. She couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t. Then [inaudible] with a camera, a movie, and then he removed something or he changed something with the ceramics, and then suddenly, she could do that. And I was [inaudible] results, [inaudible] and things like that, and I couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t even believe that things could be \u00e2\u20ac\u201c<\/p>\n
Daniel: Right. You can actually get charged very easy in the internet, and you can actually correlate the tooth with the meridian, and you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d be surprised what you find sometimes. Now, as far as the bioceramic material, you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re talking about the root canal material? The BC sealer? Or you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re talking about the crowns, or what specifically?<\/p>\n
First female in audience: You said actually the bioceramics is better. And you talked about [inaudible], so that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s why I wanted to know.<\/p>\n
Daniel: Okay, so you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re talking about the ceramic bridges and crowns and so forth.<\/p>\n
Female: The bio one.<\/p>\n
Daniel: I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m not exactly sure what we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re alluding to, but if your question is what would be the most, and it depends on what you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re talking about. If you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re talking about a crown, what would be the cleanest, most biocompatible material for a crown? The best material you could have is probably just a pure zirconia. They\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re called bruxzir crowns. Bruxzir. Now, I have patients that are extremely chemically sensitive, and I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve had one patient in particular last year that tested very sensitive to everything except for the bruxzir. He was even sensitive to the glaze of the bruxzir. So the bruxzir crown is not going to be very pretty. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s going to be very chalky looking, and we put some glaze to make it look pretty. But the glaze is probably the most toxic part of the crown, so if you want to go with a very, just pure, pure crown, the cleanest that there is, if you have a lot of sensitivies or challenges, would be a bruxzir crown, unglazed. And then you could probably buff it and give it a nice, you know, finish just by buffing it. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not the most aesthetic. Using it in front would probably raise some eyebrows. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not terrible, but it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not the most aesthetic. They all have pros and minuses, but as far as the health is concerned, that would be the one. And then you \u00e2\u20ac\u201c did I answer your questions? Okay. Alright. Thank you for your questions.<\/p>\n
Female: Here\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s\u00c2\u00a0 quick one: is it safe to rinse with hydrogen peroxide after brushing?<\/p>\n
Daniel: Yes, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s safe. Hydrogen peroxide is perfectly safe. And it makes sense if you guys think about what we talked about, right? The hydrogen peroxide, right, peroxide, you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re actually adding some oxygen into the area, which is not very welcomed by some of these bacteria, these anaerobic bacteria. I would say, though, that a lot of people talk to be about hydrogen peroxide. There\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s really no comparison between hydrogen peroxide and ozone. Ozone is much more concentrated, much greater amount of oxygen per square inch, and a lot more able to kill more of the anaerobics, so I would say ozone would be much preferable, but hydrogen peroxide is fine. In the long run, though, if you get an ozone generator, it will be cheaper than buying a lot of hydrogen peroxide. You know, you should shop it around in the internet, but they usually, a good machine runs between two hundred and two hundred and fifty dollars. No. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s just an ozone generator. You can use it for anything you want. There are actually people who use ozone to ozonate olive oil and do flushes. There are different things that you could do with it, so that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a whole other lecture, but\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 Yes, dear?<\/p>\n
Second female in audience: Do you recommend calcium supplementations or any other supplementations?<\/p>\n
Daniel: What kind of supplementations? Calcium supplementations. You know, calcium supplementation by itself, and as far as the teeth are concerned is, I would say, useless.<\/p>\n
Second female in audience: Oh.<\/p>\n
Daniel: Yeah. I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t think your body absorbs it, and even if your body absorbs it, you know, your teeth are already calcified. Most of the recalcification of the teeth happens in the mouth with the enamel, directly through the mouth. A little bit of the calcium you could have could go into the saliva and help somewhat, but I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t think it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a major player. I would say eating well, [inaudible], you know, especially some of the high-calcium containing vegetables would probably be much, much better than to have calcium in isolation, because calcium needs phosphorus, needs a few other elements to really be properly absorbed.<\/p>\n
Second female in audience: So, no supplementation period.<\/p>\n
Daniel: Yeah. You know what, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m a really anti-supplement kind of guy. I think good nutrition by far outweighs a lot of the stuff that millions of dollars are spent, or billions of dollars are spent to promote.<\/p>\n
Second female in audience: [Inaudible] with vitamin D?<\/p>\n
Daniel: Vitamin D\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a little different story, and we found some research showing that a great number of people in this world today are vitamin D deficient, so that would be the one supplement that I would consider, especially if you live in an area which is not sunny or you spend a lot of time indoors. You\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re welcome. That was Shakespeare\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s question. To be or not to be, to do or not to do. So tell me, what\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s your situation.<\/p>\n
Female: He\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s talking about the fact that if you remove the nerve of the tooth it leaves the tooth dead, and also that the canals fill with germs and viruses and then penetrate the jaw bone and can cause severe infectious bone damage.<\/p>\n
Daniel: Right. So this is what we talked about. Traditional root canals, absolutely, they create micro spaces that get infected. Traditional root canals, and 99 percent of the root canals in everybody\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s mouths are traditional root canals. Very few people use biocompatible materials for the root canals, so absolutely. Root canal done in a traditional matter will probably be a focus of infection. As far as it being a dead tooth, that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not absolutely true. You do take some of the irrigation and innervation from inside the tooth, but there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s still a lot of innervation and blood supply coming from the outside of the tooth, so it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not totally true that it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s dead. It does become more brittle. It does become more calcified. The big issue, I think, was more with the infection part of it. Now, will a biocompatible root canal get rid of the infections? In my clinical experience, patients have gotten considerably better when we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve actually retreated traditional root canals with biocompatible materials. I believe that I probably would use one in my mouth if I had to, depending on my circumstances, but since it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not a certainty, again, it depends on you. I have healthy patients that, you know, have an important tooth that would actually affect their lifestyle, their quality of life, taking it out, and I have no hesitation. I know that that is not exactly in line with the Gerson Institute, and this is beautiful that we can have a conversation, but you know, I strongly believe in biocompatible root canals in healthy patients under certain circumstances. Not a blanket statement, and I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t recommend it for everybody. No. Not people with cancer. No. Not people who have major challenges. No. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m sorry, I can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t hear you.<\/p>\n
First male in audience: When he said\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 You see, when he said that the nerves come down, right? Then he said that nerve was going to be empty.<\/p>\n
Daniel: It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not empty, it gets filled. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not empty.<\/p>\n
First male in audience: No, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m not talking about the tooth. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m talking about the nerves underneath. What happened with it?<\/p>\n
Daniel: The nerve underneath actually, you know, you have nerves that are going to the teeth. Basically that nerve just moves through. It doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t need to connect there any longer. But it does, because there are nerve innervations around the tooth, as well. So that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s really not an issue. The bigger issue is the focal point of infection. I think really that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the main issue here. You\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re welcome.<\/p>\n
Third female in audience: Have you seen any correlation between cancer developing in a patient who has teeth removed, young cadaver bone graft done, and cancer forming afterwards, like within eight to ten months?<\/p>\n
Daniel: I have not read any research. Have you?<\/p>\n
Third female in audience: No.<\/p>\n
Daniel: No. I have not. And in our practice, we don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t use any cadaver or even bovine graft. We use basically calcium based grafting any time we have to graft bone. You know, who knows what the issues will be ten or twenty or thirty years from now from using cadaver bones, so I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t really want to expose my patients \u00e2\u20ac\u201c<\/p>\n
Third female in audience: More specifically, I have, my sister had a bone graft done eight to ten months ago, and it was a young cadaver bone, and then after eight months, she is found with cancer in the [inaudible].<\/p>\n
Daniel: Yeah. It may not be related, but my gut feeling is that I would not use cadaver bone on myself or my family or my patients. I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t think it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s needed. If there are really situations that require large bone grafts, I would be much more inclined to do a [inaudible] bone graft, you know, from another part of your body and put it into your own, you know, into your mouth, or to use, what we use is a calcium based bone grafting material which just creates a matrix and a holding pattern for your own body to actually lay the bone in. Sorry about your sister.<\/p>\n
Second male in audience: Hi, thank you. I just wanted to know your opinion with regards to oil pulling and oral hygiene.<\/p>\n
Daniel: Great. So oil pulling is an effective method of actually pulling some toxins out of your mouth, and I think it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s been used for a long, long, long time.<\/p>\n
Female: Dr. Vinograd, could you explain in case people don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know what oil pulling is, actually?<\/p>\n
Daniel: Yeah. You basically use a base of oil. It could be, some people use walnut oil, coconut oil, different kinds of oils, and you actually hold it in your mouth and swish it for a long period of time, and the oil actually helps draw the toxins. Yeah. Anywhere \u00e2\u20ac\u201c there are people who do it for twenty minutes. Ten, fifteen, twenty minutes. I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t, I usually don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t recommend it in my practice so much because 95 percent of all the toxins in the mouth are generated by bacteria, mostly anaerobic bacteria, so I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m mostly a proponent of the ozone rather than the oil pulling. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s faster and I think much more effective in going to the root cause. If you have bacteria that are generating this, you can oil pull the toxins, but the bacteria are still in there, and they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re recreating the scenario again, over and over again.<\/p>\n
Fourth female in audience: Hi.<\/p>\n
Daniel: Hi.<\/p>\n
Fourth female in audience: I have two questions.<\/p>\n
Daniel: Sure.<\/p>\n
Fourth female in audience: I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m having an amalgam removed. I have one in my mouth. And I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m getting an onlay done \u00e2\u20ac\u201c is that right? Is that normally a composite material or a porcelain material?<\/p>\n
Daniel: It can be both.<\/p>\n
Fourth female in audience: Okay.<\/p>\n
Daniel: It can be both. If it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s going to be, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s going to probably be done at the lab or at the dental office. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s going to be milled. So if it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s going to be milled, your composite will probably not have any BPAs or any fluoride, which is a good thing, but it can be both. Either or. And most of the time it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s porcelain, and that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s probably going to be the more stable of the two materials.<\/p>\n
Fourth female in audience: Oh, okay. And also, what\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s your opinion about pulling wisdom teeth<\/a>?<\/p>\n Daniel: You know, wisdom teeth are most problematic when they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re partially erupted, because once they get partially erupted, you have a real bacterial trap there, which is basically what we talked about in pockets, it creates a much larger pocket in there that becomes problematic in that sense. When they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re in the bone, you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re just watching for the possibility of cysts in the future, but most problematic when they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re halfway in. Yeah. You\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re welcome. Thanks for your question. Hi. Pulling teeth out in order to get braces? Can you speak into the mic a little bit?<\/p>\n Fifth female in audience: Hello? Ah, there we go. I was wondering what your opinion is about pulling out healthy teeth in order to get a brace, because that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s what they do in my country.<\/p>\n Daniel: It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s usually a good idea if you need it, obviously, if you trust and if you have a competent orthodontist, then they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re pulling it because usually your arch, the arch of your jaw, or your maxilla, is not large enough to accommodate all the teeth. So it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s very important that you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t have crowding so that you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t eventually have gum issues.<\/p>\n Fifth female in audience: So it won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t create like a disbalanced situation?<\/p>\n Daniel: No. Usually it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a beneficial situation when you can get your teeth aligned and no crowding.<\/p>\n Fifth female in audience: Okay. Thank you.<\/p>\n Daniel: You\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re welcome.<\/p>\n Female: Well, thank you so much, Dr. Vinograd. I know everybody\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s learned so much from you today. I know I learn something new every time you come, and I think everybody will join me in thanking you for being here today.<\/p>\n Transcription: part 1<\/a> | part 2<\/a> | part 3<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Female: What happens to the roots of good teeth when they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re ground down for a bridge?
