...When I went to the US the other day, for 9 days, I stopped brushing my teeth with Protocol Nasal & Oral which I had been using at about 60 ppm ClO2. After about 4 days I developed a painful tooth infection down around where I had had a root canal done on a right upper molar, the furthest back in my mouth. As soon as I got back to Indonesia I went to see my dentist the next day and he said that since the tooth already had a lot of decay and I had the infection, it would probably be best to just pull it out and so he gave me a prescription for an antibiotic to stop the infection and prepare me for the tooth extraction. However I told him that I wanted to try to stop the infection using ClO2 instead and if it worked, then I wouldn't need to pull the tooth and he said, "Sure, give it a try". So that's what I did and after about 2 days, the infection was gone and with it went the pain.
All I did was floss or use a plastic toothpick to initially get all the food out of the infected area of the tooth and then put enough 100 ppm CDS (without baking soda) in my mouth to be able to basically soak and swish into the infected area of the tooth for about 5 minutes, 3 times a day. I also tried to floss or toothpick the food out of that area after each meal to keep it as free of food debris and bacteria as possible.
So I was able to avoid the toxicity of the antibiotic (my dentist said it could be hard on the liver), I saved my tooth and I saved my time and money.
The next time I go on a long trip I'm going to take the Protocol Nasal and Oral solutions with me so I won't have to go through all that pain again.
Hope this helps those with similar problems.
