Root Cause

I was very ill for years as a result of root canals. When I got them out, my health recovered. I went from being active and healthy to almost disabled. It's because of stories like this that I made the connection, because I had no symptoms around the teeth themselves and my dentist could see nothing wrong.

Anyone who thinks this should be censored is probably either making money from doing root canals or lazily repeating what mainstream media tells us - that they are safe. They are not.

I found this documentary very interesting which gives you something to think about, especially if you're in search of answers. I do find it strange that so many reviewers give it one star and say its untrue. I'm a chronic reader of reviews and I've become pretty good deciphering real from fake reviews. Im just skeptical, thats all. I find that dentist are among the worst thieves, at least here in NJ, from my experience and speaking with others.So, they would be against this documentary.

To the people who attack this documentary, I would just ask that you try to be a bit more humane. I had two root canals in 2010 on the right side of my mouth. In 2013, I was diagnosed with breast cancer on the right side. I have suffered my entire adult life with horrible health issues and always just did whatever my doctors said to do. My body looks like something out of a Tim Burton movie with all the surgery scars. Now I'm battling stage 4 metastatic cancer in my lungs for over a year. I started reading about the possible link between root canals and breast cancer and decided to see a biological dentist who found one of the root canals I had was infected and leaking toxins at the root. He also found I had a huge infected cavitation from a wisdom tooth extraction done over 40 years ago. Now I wonder if that was linked to all my other health issues as I have lived a very healthy lifestyle ever since this all started in an effort to avoid more health disasters. Six weeks ago I had the root canals removed and the cavitation cleaned out and working to get the bone to regrow. It was after all that work that I stumbled upon Root Cause on Netflix. I watched it and was in tears by the end of the film. I don't think it's a coincidence that so many of us breast cancer victims had root canals on the same side as our cancer. I'd never heard of cavitations before but it makes sense that a chronic infection in the jaw can wreak havoc on our immune system. I am praying every day that taking care of these dental issues will finally allow me to win this battle with cancer. I understand the ADA is trying to have this documentary pulled from Netflix and other networks. That is pure evil. People should be able to see this and make their own decisions.

Yes root canals are toxic. I wish this show would have focused strictly on the science of root canal toxins and left out some of the more controversial and irrelevant concepts like acupuncture meridians that everyone here is criticizing. Making it sound like an ancient aliens conspiracy documentary is not helping them convince the general public. However, the gist of the message about root canals is true. I developed idiopathic neuropathy shortly after getting two root canals. All the endodontists said the root canals looked great but a CBCT scanner showed otherwise. When I had them recently removed, the surgeon found that the root canals were indeed infected. I also had a cavitation in an extraction site where the periodontal ligament wasn't removed and the surgeon found this was infected too. I am already beginning to recover my health, but don't listen to me.. I guess you should listen to all the qualified endodontists and psychiatrists here protecting their business and all the sadists who want to keep you sick and suffering.

The American Dental Association does not want you to watch this movie.
