There is bone loss that supports teethPosted By John (Averill Park, Ny) on 01/07/2015
It's going to cost me $1,100 after my discount. I have an appointment on Feb. 3, 2015. My dental discount plan saved me $700. I think we'd all agree I'm paying too much!
My dentist wants to send me to a specialist concerning my bone loss partly under one or two teeth. Does anyone have any advice that might help with the bone loss ?
I take very good care of my teeth . I floss everyday and I brush my teeth for two minutes twice each day and I see a dentist every six months. I have been an active and healthy man all of my life . I'm sincerely thankful for any help anyone gives me .

Concerning conventional pharmaceutical approach to bone loss, I have read some quite dangerous side effects of those commonly prescribed medications. It is not out-of-the ordinary that these harmful, Dr.recommended meds, will needs be taken "for the remainder of one's life".
You can research these meds yourself (I think some are named Spiriva & Boniva), and will probably find high cost, many bad side-effects, and low benefits. That's my understanding, and would recommend "proceed w/ caution".
Also, hormonal loss, due to aging & stress, is common cause of degenerative conditions like bone loss. If you are middle-age or beyond, you may want to consider supplementing Kelp tablets to restore Iodine for Thyroid health (which regulates metabolism and mineral/water balance in cells), and tonic herbs like Foti, Ashwagandha, and Ginseng to restore adrenal function.
Boosting Human Growth Hormone (HGH) w/ simple fasting and/or exercises (see YouTube videos) can very much help restore lost bone density.

Thank you very much for all the information you gave me.
I'm learning much from people like you who use earthclinic.com.
Would you know if there is anything written that addresses bone loss?
Thank you Timh, John

For 20 years we had a dentist that was an absolute delight. We finally learned the really he did know his ass from a hole in the ground. My wife mouth got in such bad shape that we sought a new dentist. We then went from the dark ages to modern times. It turns out that the caps the first dentist put in put pressure on her jaw bone and the jaw went away. That happened in several areas of her jaw. What a mess.
Our new dentist covers the entire country teaching and his computer pictures left no doubt what has happened to her over 20 years. It took 3 years to clean up his mess. She had to have cadaver bone implants to fill in her jaw that had disappeared due to his ineptness. I almost laugh when is read these posts to help in these problems. EC is a great place, but you got to know the folks giving this Mandrake advice. Know all ya'll remember Mandrake the magician. All he had to do was wave his hand and the problem was solved.
When you got missing bone, no one is going to solve that problem by waving a hand nor sipping on a supplement. It took years to get there it will not be solved overnight.
I am discouraged with what is being written these days as gospel. Know the writers. We got some bright folks contributing but we also got some dumb asses and you better figure out the difference.
One last thing, read the archives before you ask for help. Your problem has been addressed 462 times ..so read before you ask for help. Read first. Repeat, read first. Did you get that......read first.
Everyone's buddy====ORH====
