I went to a Yonsei University dental clinic  because I wanted to see if the tooth was too far gone to save. Well, as it turns out the filling that I received a week ago is useless. The Korean dentist Dr. Shin(not sure about the spelling) said that there were too many cavities and the tooth can not be saved. This is the third time I heard this request to remove it. I agreed and he immediately remove it at about 3pm 07/17/2017. I have to admit that I hate needles and he poked quite a few times. He worked at the tooth and finally after 5 minutes of pulling and pushing, he loosen the tooth and out it came.
The nice thing about this removal is that it costed me 11,800won! I paid 700 CAD back home in Kamloops from Dr Thomson!!!

Post extraction

They gave me antibiotics, pain killer, and stomach medication.

I told him that I didn't want to take antibiotics! I guess it is standard practice.

I decided to take 4 cloves of garlic at 6pm as a natural antibiotic.  I will take 4 cloves of garlic 3 times daily.

I decided to use Dr. Thompson's advice.

     1. Do not rinse for the first 24 hours after extraction.
         For the next 7-10 days:
              Rinse 3% hydrogen peroxide and filtered water (50/05)
              Rinse Celtic sea salt and warm filtered water
              Put 1-2 drops of Lugois iodine in the socket after every meal.

     2.  Keep fingers and tongue away from both operative area and/socket.

     3. Bleeding - it is normal for saliva to be lightly streaked with blood for about a day.  If so, then place a gauze over the area and maintain pressure for 20 minutes.

     4. Swelling - some swelling is to be expected often reaching its maximum in about 48 hours, then disappearing spontaneously in a further 2-3 days. An ice bag can be applied if swelling occurs for 10 minutes on , 10 minutes off. This treatment can be valuable on the balance of the day after surgery.

     5. Pain - Trumeel Take as directed for 5-10 days.
                    I did get this product. I received Traumacare homeopathic
                    medicine to help relieve muscle pain, injuries, and inflammation.
                    For acute pain, take one every half hour/hour up to 12 times daily.

In summary,
 
                     Garlic: 4 cloves 3 times daily. Natural antibiotic
                     Pain killer: 3 times a day (Korean prescription)
                     Traumacare: 1 per hour , 12 times a day.
                   
                      After 24 hours, after every meal:
                       Rinse 3% hydrogen peroxide and filtered water (50/05)
                       Rinse Celtic sea salt and warm filtered water
                       Put 1-2 drops of Lugois iodine in the socket after every meal.

Diet
After general anesthetic or I.V. sedation, liquids should be initially taken. Do not use straws. Drink from a glass. The sucking motion can cause more bleeding by dislodging the blood clot. You may eat anything soft by chewing away form the surgical sites. High calorie, high protein intake is very important. Refer to the section on suggested diet instructions at the end of the brochure. Nourishment should be taken regularly. You should prevent dehydration by taking fluids regularly. Your food intake will be limited for the first few days. You should compensate for this by increasing your fluid intake. At least 5-6 glasses of liquid should be taken daily. Try not to miss a single meal. You will feel better, have more strength, less discomfort and heal faster if you continue to eat. Caution: If you suddenly sit up or stand from a lying position you may become dizzy. If you are lying down following surgery, make sure you sit for one minute before standing.

I had an enema, I used 2 buckets of water.  Feels good. I took a probiotic to replace the bacteria the garlic got rid of. I will go to bed late 11:30pm i should sleep well.

It's important to always take probiotics:

after colonics
while taking antibiotics
while doing a cleanse

I am so excited to find garlic as my all time herb to save me from the pain of an abscessed tooth.

I went to the dentist last Monday July 10, 2017 to have my tooth removed. It's a broken tooth that has created great discomfort. The dentist wanted to save the tooth with a filling. He cleared the area out with a laser and drill. After the appointment, I felt well. I never thought about it swelling again, but it did.  I think it was Tuesday night, that I had serious pain in the gallbladder. I woke up Wednesday morning, with skin issues around my gallbladder. What was this? What caused it? Last night, a week later, it really started to give me more grief.  What to do? I did some searching on the internet and discovered that tooth abscesses cause gallstones!!!

I went to earthclinic.com and found out that garlic is the popular choice for tooth abscess. There was this one posting that really convinced me that I should give it a try.

Editor's Choice IMPORTANT NOTE: all products I used were 100% ORGANIC.
First time using this site & successfully overcame tooth abscess. Cured within 1 week. Dentist obviously gave me antibiotics which I did not take. Instead, above and beyond all therapies I implemented, RAW GARLIC worked immediate magic.

So heed to this message: if you can stand the temporary yet intense pain/burning sensation upon chewing on a fresh clove of garlic and placing the pulp with your clean fingers or tongue on the abscessed site for as long as you can stand it, it will immediately start working it's miracle. When done with this burning ordeal, swallow all the garlic you have in your mouth.

On the other hand, if you're unable to do so, then consume raw garlic (either sliced up or minced or whole) with fresh food (like a salad) or just chew it and swallow downing some water or liquid right after if you like. The goal is to get RAW GARLIC in your system as soon as you notice an inflammatory situation come up in your mouth/body. I consumed between 4-6 cloves daily and continue to do so to strengthen my immune system.

As a side note, the first 3 days after doing some research and going by what 3 of my FB peeps had simultaneously advised me, clove oil was my 1st form of attack and it literally burned the inside of my cheek, my gum and the corner of my mouth which caused me to stop using it. My inside cheek and gums looked raw with a whitish layer of skin peeling off. Not good. Anyway, surely it aided in the whole process however, in the future I'd only apply it no more than a couple times a day versus about 4-5 times.

Stick to the garlic and frequent peppermint oil and water (about 4 drops oil per cup of water) gargles multiple times a day, especially after eating. Also, I brushed my teeth after each meal with my homemade OraMD (2T sweet almond oil with 40 drops each of Spearmint and Peppermint oils) which I've been using as my toothpaste for about 4 months and LOVE.

One last resource I believe I'm drawing benefit from is using Colloidal Silver. I apply one dropper full in my mouth and tilt head so it covers my healed abscess tooth area for 30sec before squishing around and swallowing. I do this about 3-4 times a day and will continue to do so perhaps until the bottle empties.

May this help you as it's helped me regain my healthy oral balance.

It's been 12 hours since my first use of garlic and only 10% pain remains in the nerve. I will continue to apply garlic and try Colloidal Silver.  It appears the garlic could use a partner to keep those nasty bacteria from returning.

Peace!!!
