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.

I am also interested in the removal of the root canals. i have one that my doctor wants me to have removed because he believes it is harboring bacteria that may be the cause of my RA. I have had all of my mercury amalgam fillings removed, but have not yet dealt with the root canal.
I had a cavitation removed from a previous root canal. I can not even begin tell how much my health has improved in such a short time!!! We have had multiple miscarriages and to think that this could be the cause…. But its fixed now and I am thrilled. Just as significant was another corrective dental procedure. I had two crowns that were putting off negative energy – and I don’t in a new age kind of energy but actual, measurable negative electricity! This was caused by a loose crown that had let decay begun underneath, lots of mixed metals under the crown, including copper. Immediate health improvements! Major difference! Also, had a couple of small mercury fillings removed about a month before that.

I have heard this before, but I wonder how true it really is?
The organ meats have to be raw? I can eat calf liver,actually like it . . . but that’s cooked in a cast iron skillet with some Worcestershire sauce and a little butter. lol
We’re working on healing cavities in my 4 year old daughter. Thank goodness for the Internet to get this information out there!
Thank you so much for sharing, I’ve been wondering about this topic recently.
So far I have avoided a root canal. I went to a holistic dentist and she managed to save it. Since then I have implemented eating more nutrient dense fats into my diet and decreasing my grain intake. My teeth feel the best they have in years.
Raw chicken hearts are quite small .. the size of a small strawberry.
@Susan Dessicated liver is great .. but to heal a bad cavity where the tooth actually needs a root canal, you need some serious organ meat. Try raw chicken hearts … freeze them for 14 days so they are safe to eat raw, cut one up each day and swallow the little pieces whole. This is how I get it down the hatch as I can’t stand heart either. You can do the same with frozen raw liver. Of course, the fermented cod liver oil and butter oil are essential as well. The organ meats put healing into overdrive.
Just can’t imagine swallowing this.
If I tried this, I would buy it frozen immediately after the bird was killed – this was hard even for me to type – I am a raw vegetarian.
I use Thieves therapeutic grade essential oil blend, Oregano or even tea tree essential oils of high quality – saved 2 teeth already!
