Do you believe in
the power of medicine or herbal remedies?
Most people would
rather save money on a root canal and keep it in the bank whenever possible.
But how can you do that after your dentist says you need one in order to
relieve your pain? Some people try herbal remedies!
Some herbal remedies
we found include:
Plantain poultice- is a type of weed that pulls toxins
out of the body
Goldenseal powder- is a type of herb that can be used as
a mouthwash to take away soreness
Echinacea- is a type of herb that helps fight
off tooth infections
Silicea-
is effective in
reducing root infections of the tooth
Lycopodium-
is helpful to reduce
pain while you’re chewing
There is no
scientific information that confirms using herbal remedies help heal a tooth
that requires a root canal. So we can’t recommend this type of treatment!.
However, if you try an herbal remedy and you’re still in pain, a root canal is probably
still needed.
However, our family dentist in Howell, Michigan
would like to offer you ways you can avoid a root canal. That way you don’t
have to worry about how much it will cost, or whether you should try an herbal
remedy. Ways to avoid a root canal include:
- Brush properly in a circular motion
- Floss twice daily
- Avoid eating sweets
- Limit your consumption of acidic drinks (pop, energy drinks, coffee)
- Use a mouthwash after brushing
