Thermal Imaging In Dentistry

Posted by on in Breast Health

 

The use of thermal imaging in dentistry is still relatively new, but the technology has already shown promise in helping dentists to identify dental conditions that may otherwise go unnoticed.

 

One of the primary advantages of thermal imaging in dentistry is that it allows for the early detection of dental problems. In traditional dental exams, dentists rely on visual examination, X-ray, and other diagnostic tools to identify dental conditions such as cavities, gum disease, and oral cancer. However, these methods are not always able to identify problems in their early stages. Thermal imaging, on the other hand, can detect even the slightest changes in temperature, allowing dentists to detect dental problems before they become more serious.

 

Another advantage of thermal imaging is its non-invasive nature. Traditional dental imaging techniques, such as X-rays, can be uncomfortable and expose patients to radiation. In contrast, thermal imaging is non-invasive and painless, making it a safer and more comfortable option for patients. This is especially beneficial for patients who are anxious about dental procedures or who have a low pain tolerance.

 

In addition to its early detection capabilities, non-invasive nature, and cost-effectiveness, thermal imaging has a range of other benefits in dental applications. For example, thermal imaging can be used to detect inflammation and infection in the teeth and gums, as well as to assess the effectiveness of treatments such as root canal therapy.

 

According to a study published in the Journal of Innovative Dentistry, thermal imaging has an overall accuracy rate of 94.9% in detecting dental problems, including caries, periodontal disease, and oral cancer (Acharya et al., 2014).

 

While the use of thermal imaging in dentistry is still relatively new, the technology has already shown promise in improving the detection and treatment of dental conditions. By allowing for early detection, providing a non-invasive option, offering a quick and easy procedure, monitoring progress, and reducing costs, thermal imaging has the potential to revolutionize the field of dentistry.

Good News!

 

Finally, the FDA published a Patient Safety Communication on 'silver' dental amalgam, however, it has not gotten the public and media attention it deserved.

 

Every dental office should put these Infographics on display for their patients to see. 

 

Please keep in mind that the removal of dental amalgam by a regular dentist could be problematic and unsafe. A dental dam and a water spray are not enough to protect you. We recommend that you find a dentist who uses  www.thesmartchoice.com safety protocol, you can find additional information and a list of dentists in your area at www.iaomt.org or www.iabdm.org.

 

We at Thermography Clinic have been calling for safe amalgam removal for over two decades now. Over the many years at our clinic, we have imaged thousands using infrared thermography. In many cases, we have seen cases of inflammation and signs of early abnormalities. Studies have shown that dental and oral health is closely linked to overall health. 

 

For additional information regarding thermography and dental health please read the following article on Thermography and Dental Pathology.

 

We’re eagerly awaiting a similar alert by the FDA regarding the dangers associated with root canal procedures. They might be a bit late, at least by over 25 years, but as the old saying goes – Better Late Than Never.

Did you know that your oral health offers clues about your overall health — or that problems in your mouth can affect the rest of your body? 

 

Protect yourself by learning more about the connection between your oral health and overall health. In this video interview with Dr. Ellie Campbell, we have discussed the relationship between oral health and overall health.

 

Like other areas of the body, your mouth teems with bacteria. However, unlike the other areas of your body, your mouth is the entry point to your digestive and respiratory tracts, and some of these bacteria can cause disease.

 

Your oral health is more important than you might realize. Learn how the health of your mouth, teeth and gums can affect your general health.

A Hidden Epidemic and Breast Cancer

Posted by on in Breast Health

Women who have gum disease are 11 times more likely to be diagnosed with breast cancer. In North America, 75% of adults suffer from various forms of gum disease or other oral pathologies. In other words, 75% of adult population is at increased risk of cancer because of poor oral health. Research published by Dr. Robert Jones found that there is a very high co-relationship between root canal treated teeth and breast cancer. In a five-year study of 300 breast cancer cases, he found that 93% of the women with breast cancer had root canals, 7% had other oral pathology. Further, breast tumours (in most cases), occurred on the same side of the body as the root canal.

 

One factor connecting oral pathology to breast disease is something called Chronic Apical Periodontitis or CAP.  CAP is a group of inflammatory conditions caused by microorganisms (mainly bacteria) infecting the necrotic root canal system. CAP often develops asymptomatically, and the prognosis is typically less favourable when it is detected late.  

 

In addition to higher incidents of cancer, root canal treatments also contribute to a higher risk of heart attacks. The DNA of oral pathogens typical of the root canal and gum-infected flora is consistently found in coronary atherosclerotic plaque.

 

Thus chronically infected teeth, both with and without root canal treatments, due to its extraordinary ability to deplete antioxidants and promote chronic inflammation in affected tissues and organs, can be considered the single most important cause of heart attacks and single most important cause of head, neck and breast cancer.

 

I have been researching and lecturing on this subject for well over a decade, and it is astounding that most health professionals remain yet in the dark about this while the evidence is overwhelming. 

 

So, what can you do and how can you find out if you have oral inflammation even if you have no symptoms? 

 

First, you should understand that while regular dental checkups may be necessary, the conventional dental methods may not be useful in identifying the problem discussed here. Regular dental x-rays will not detect early signs of CAP or other oral pathologies and infections. 

 

However, with the use of thermography, we have been able to locate these inflammatory conditions at their earliest stage and alert many patients to help them rectify problems before they lead to more severe disease.  Thermography should be incorporated into regular dental/oral examination to help identify conditions that lead to chronic inflammation.  

 

I want to encourage all of you who are reading this to take a very proactive attitude about your oral health. It may be one of the most significant factors in breast cancer prevention.

When was the last time your doctor asked you about your dental health?

 

Despite multiple research studies that link root-canal treated teeth to cancer and other chronic disease, the majority of people, and sadly even health care professionals, do not pay enough attention to dental health. 

 

When it comes to the root canal procedure, the current convention is to save a tooth at any cost. It does not, however, consider the logic of leaving a dead, filled tooth inside the body. If this scenario involved any other part of the body, say your hand, it would not even be debated. But when it comes to teeth, the same logic that prevails in other body parts usually disappears.

 

Chronic inflammation has been accepted as “the silent killer” that leads to chronic disease, heart disease, and cancer. Root canals are inherently susceptible to infection and inflammation. As a matter of fact, this is what initially led to the problem; infection. People living with a chronic source of infection and inflammation will eventually find that their immunity is affected. In some cases, this chronic inflammation and infection will actually promote the growth of malignancy. The natural defense mechanism to fight malignancy is impaired since the immune system is busy dealing with inflammation that has no chance of resolving on its own. The only way this problem can be resolved is by identifying and removing the cause. The infected area has to be properly dealt with before the body can be restored to health.

 

Remember that, in the body, the mouth is the largest cavity that is continuously exposed to outside influences and the environment. So, when was the last time your doctor asked you about your dental health? If the answer is “never”, perhaps itʼs time to re-evaluate your health issues and consider this question. Take the initiative and investigate. It can help in restoring your health and prevent breast cancer.

 

Take charge of your health today, be proactive and help others to prevent breast cancer NOW!
