One of the most popular articles on this site is how I healed my child’s cavity using the protocol recommended by Dr. Weston A. Price DDS, a dentist who penned the incredible book Nutrition and Physical Degeneration back in the 1930s.
Granted, the cavity I healed was an early cavity .. it was a hole in one of my child’s top front incisors and it filled in within weeks to be as smooth as the teeth next to it.
But what about a tooth with a really bad cavity? Â What if the cavity has actually eaten into the pulp of the tooth and your dentist recommends a root canal?
Guess what? Â You can save these teeth too.
The protocol for healing teeth even in such a state of complete degeneration is described in the book Cure Tooth Decay by Rami Nagel. This article on saving damaged teeth without a root canal provides a compelling testimonial of this approach.
I had the privilege of talking to Rami personally at the Wise Traditions Conference last year.
I have no doubt that our conversation helped to enable me to heal my child’s cavity some months later and write about it hopefully helping thousands of people in the process do the exact same thing.
Watch this video featuring Rami Nagel which describes the diet required to avoid and heal teeth at risk for a root canal. Even teeth that are in need of an immediate root canal can be helped.
If you have teeth in such a severe state of decay and think there is no hope, think again. Proper, traditionally based nutrition can work wonders even in these types of situations where the teeth need root canals. Make sure you listen through the whole video to be sure you understand Rami’s description of all aspects of the diet required to heal root canal teeth. It’s much more involved than taking a couple of supplements. There is no quick fix.
In addition, the diet required to heal the root canal teeth needs to be continued so that the problem does not re-emerge in the future.

Also, do they have suppliments that work like heart and liver? I just won’t be able to eat heart or liver. I could not make myself do it.
Lauren Sherry once a tooth has been filled, it cannot be healed. Drilling a tooth destroys the inherent ability of the tooth to repair itself.

Does anyone give their kids cod liver oil? I have never purchased it and I wondered if there is a difference in the amount children and adults should take.
Liver pate is delicious and my favorite way to eat liver (the kids love it as a sandwich spread) https://www.thehealthyhomeeconomist.com/video-chicken-liver-pate/
Do you know what this does to teeth that already have fillings in them? I’ve read so much info about this, but never about what it does to teeth with fillings.
If you want to eat liver or heart raw, freeze it for 14 days (to ensure safety of consuming raw meat) and then while still frozen chop up small bits and swallow whole like little pills. I eat raw heart and liver like this all the time as I have trouble with the taste (unless it is cooked in a gourmet dish as described above).
I always hated the thought of eating liver then I tried it raw – much better. It has to taste better frozen – thanks for the tip. Does anybody know how much liver do you have to eat to heal the tooth?
Yes, I do. Here’s one that comes to mind: https://www.thehealthyhomeeconomist.com/breaded-beef-heart-your-family-will-eat-this/
Do you have blog entries on eating heart and liver?
I had a root canal done and the dentist instrument broke off in my tooth!! He was unable to get it out, so now I have a 1 in. long peice of metal in the root of my tooth. He just filled it in and covered it up. I have pain in my jaw, should I have this tooth removed, it’s bee about 7 years since this happened. Also my 4 year old is about to have his back molar pulled in a few days and I’m devistated. There is infection in his gums and the dentist told me there was no other choice. I take butter oil blend with fclo my son takes fclo only and not regularly.
