Another excerpt from Timeless Secrets of Health and Rejuvenation.
“Heal Your Gums and Teeth A 1980 survey by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services concluded that only 5 percent of dentists’ time is spent in attempting to treat gum disease (gingivitis and periodontitis) and yet the majority of all teeth that are pulled (or fall out) are lost due totally to gum disease! This has not changed since then but has actually become worse. A study conducted by dental authorities in North Carolina states that gum disease in America is “rampant”. And it continues to escalate at epidemic proportions. The diagnosis of the gum disease and its predictable solution is based on over 30 years of study, research, and private practice, of Dr. Robert O. Nara. Dr. Nara is the founder of Oramedics International, the world’s only group dedicated to helping people avoid tooth and gum disease rather than treating the results of the disease process with needles, knives, drugs, drilling, pulling and false teeth! Dr. Nara’s solution is simple and effective, and it makes sense. He says that American forefathers used brine to preserve their food and kill bacteria. The same germ-removing action of salt water can be harnessed to keep the gums free of infection. Millions of people have used warm salt water rinses to cure oral abscesses, gum boils, etc. Apparently, the warm salt water helps to draw excessive toxic fluid out of the gum tissue, thereby reducing swelling, alleviating pain, and killing harmful bacteria. This allows the gums to heal and keep the teeth healthy, too. If used in an irrigating device, the warm salt water reaches all gum line crevices and periodontal pockets, which is important for complete reversal of gum disease and tooth decay. Dr. Nara says brushing and flossing are not sufficient to stop gum disease, that’s why so many people who followed their dentists’ standard advice still wound up with gum disease (infection). Most people believe that gum disease is caused by plaque. Research studies by Socransky at Forsyth Dental School in Boston, and by Loesche at the University of Michigan showed that the plaque theory does not hold. The presence of up to five different types of destructive bacteria in gum diseases actually shows that plaque and tartar are not primary causal factors, but effects. Healthy gums attract only good bacteria, such as gram-positive faculative rods and cocci - predominately Actinomyces species and streptococci. Sick gums attract gram-negative anaerobic rods - primarily Bacteroids and Fusobacteria. Rinsing or irrigating the mouth with salt water several times a day is usually enough to prevent and reverse gum disease. For situations of advanced gum disease, however, Dr. Nara recommends you also use Sanguinaria, a herbal extract, which has been used as a mouth rinse for centuries by native cultures. Gum disease indicates the presence of large amounts of toxins in the body, especially in the alimentary canal which begins in the mouth and ends in the anus. In addition to the above rinsing procedures, it is also important to address the underlying causes i.e. poor diet, dehydration, irregular lifestyle, congested liver and intestinal tract, and emotional stress.”
