Cavities? Root Canals? Crowns? Teeth!? Why?

January 13, 2011


I went to the dentist today to get my tooth ready for a crown. YUK! Why? Why do we have teeth that need dental work? How would it be if we didn't have dentists? What did Adam and Eve do? Did THEY floss?? I mean seriously, what is the deal? Anyone??

I'm doing good (health and raw for 5 days!) I'm tired (working hard). I'm frustrated (work). But I am happy, grateful, full of hope, and feeling good.

This has just filled me with hope for mankind:

"Following the necessary experience of mortal life, ALL sons and daughters of God will ultimately be resurrected and go to a kingdom of glory more wonderful that any mortal can comprehend. With only a FEW exceptions, even the very wicked will ultimately go to a marvelous-though lesser- kingdom of glory. All of this will occur because of God's GREAT LOVE for His children, and it is all made possible because of the Atonement and Resurrection of Jesus Christ." Elder Dallin H. Oaks January 2011 Ensign.

Breakfast: Green smoothie

  1. Dave, from RFR here. Got a laugh out of “What did Adam and Eve do?”
    Teeth are alive. Any xray will show that there is blood flow through the inner part of the tooth. Thus, how would you expect a tooth to stay healthy? I would guess it would be from this blood flow. I have not had tooth issues since changing my diet. I am not 100% raw, but make a conscious effort to eat foods in their raw state AND to make sure I get the minerals that raise the pH. The confirmation that I got that I was doing the right thing was a comment from my dentist during a cleaning (about a year after changing my diet) that came out something like (this as he looked in his mirror at my teeth): This is probably going to be a short appointment. There doesn’t seem to be any plaque.
    See you at Rehab!

  2. Hi Dave! Wow! Thanks for that info! I hope that my teeth will stay healthy from here on out then! What minerals do you take other than from food?

  3. Nothing. :) For a while I eat ORMUS greens (spoon full in my smoothie) but as of late, nothing other than healthy foods. It seems to be working for me. If you actually look up the nutritional content of common greens, you’ll find that they are pretty rich in minerals (nutritiondata.self.com is a source that pops up using Google). Just keep in mind that the tools display what should be considered a super small portion. ½ lb per smoothie means at least 250 grams.

    After posting here, I found this article @ Raw Food Explained dot com. Seemed interesting – expect for the part about Hunzaland (which I can’t verify so it leaves me feeling that the author stretched things a bit).
