If you have cancer and you've been to the best cancer doctors in the world and you've done surgery, you've done chemo, you've done radiation, you've gone through the standard of care and the cancer comes back, it's terminal, it's metastatic, and you tell, when I tell people, well, you need to go see a dentist. I mean, many people laugh and they go, what in the hell did you just say?

I've got cancer. I don't have a dental problem. And I go, well, perhaps you do. Because again, if you go back, and I always look back, what's held true throughout ages? And if you look at Ayurvedic medicine, if you look at traditional Chinese medicine, if you look at acupuncture, and if you go back and you look, if you don't know what to look for, you're never going to find it.

If you know what to look for, it's out there. It's in the published literature. But every tooth in the body is connected to an organ system, right? And so these are the meridians, the acupuncture meridians. You know, the analogy is they're circuit breakers. So if you trip a breaker in your home, there's no electricity going through that circuit.

So your oven doesn't work, your refrigerator doesn't work, your lights go out. Well, the body is electric, right? And how do we diagnose death? No electrical activity, right? Either through an EKG or an EEG. So the body is electric and we're batteries. And so if that red light comes on on our phone, it says we have a low battery, everybody panics and goes and plugs it in and charges, right?

And the human body is the exact same. We lose voltage over time. And if you've got a trip breaker from an infected tooth, there's no voltage, there's no circuitry going to that meridian that feeds individual organs. So the best example is if you've got a root canal, and 100% of root canal teeth are infected. And when you think about it, people go, well, that's not true.

Well, think about what a root canal is. You had a toothache at some point because of an infection. So you go to the dentist and they pull the nerve root out of that tooth. So you don't feel the pain anymore because there's no nerve root there. And they pull the blood supply out of that tooth. Now you have no blood supply to that tooth. And a tooth is a crystalline structure. It's a living organ.

And a tooth is a crystalline structure. It's a living organ.
With no blood supply and no nerve root, that's a dead tissue. So if you were to go in and we'd disconnect your gallbladder, for example, and just cut the blood supply to it, the nerve supply to it, within seven or 10 days, you'd be dead from sepsis. Nobody leaves dead tissue in the body. And so then what happens is when you leave the dentist, what do they do? They put you on an oral antibiotic.

But they must have forgotten they took out the blood supply to that infected site. So an oral antibiotic isn't going to reach the site of infection. I mean, to me, when you sit back and think about this and go, who the hell does this and why do they do it? Well, it's because of what we've always done. So then what happens is these anaerobic bacteria, they don't need oxygen.

So then what happens is these anaerobic bacteria, they don't need oxygen.
They're sitting there in an anaerobic, low oxygen environment, and they're just eating away at your jawline. They're just like us do. They metabolize, they take stuff in, they poop waste out. Those waste products accumulate, it shuts down voltage, and they eat away at your jawline. So then you've got osteonecrosis, osteomyelitis, and you don't even know it. And an x-ray will not show it.
