(1) Degenerative Disease Caused by Tooth Infections
Case Histories.- By Dr. George Meining,D.D.S.,
* Quite often Price referred to the high number
of "rheumatic group lesions" which resulted from
dental infections. That terminology produced
some confusion as it placed extreme emphasis on
rheumatism and arthritis.
* Although rheumatic and arthritic illness often
result from oral infections, they aren't any
more prevelant as a result of dental infections
than those which affect the heart and circular-
tory system.
* Dr. Price's decision to call all diseases
resulting from dental infections "degenerative
diseases" was a prophetic one. Time has
proven him correct and people generally reco-
gnize this term implies a progressive health
deterioration.
* During Dr. Price's time, and even today, people
believe degenerative diseases are caused by
accidental exposure to specific germs and as
a result the heart, kidneys, joint, etc. are
attacked - much like contracting the measles,
memps, chicken pox, etc.
* Because, in some cases, bacteria are involved,
the above view still predominates. The issue
is further confused by the fact that tissue
deterioration also takes place because of
nutritional deficiencies and excesses.
* At the same time, hardly anyone realizes the
extent to which focal infections from teeth,
tonsils, and tonsil tags are major contributors
to the presence of degenerative diseases.
That fact motivated the writing of this book.
* It is most difficult on one hand to realizes
how fabulous the contributions of the dental
profession have been in preserving and
extending the life of teeth - One the other
hand to recognize that the need for root
canal fillings is a distinct indication of
failure to discover tooth decay when it starts,
rather than when it is so deep the pulp has
become infected.
