  Questions and Answers by Sandra Petry

Sandy has had several people with dental problems call her for advice after reading her story at www.sandrastory.com (her website). We thought others might like to know how she answers their questions:

Question #1: I saw my dentist today and she now has a medical grade ozone machine and has done the training in how to use it. She says that the dentists and doctors who are using it are having excellent results with cavitations, bone regeneration, arthritis and lots more. The dentist can do injections right into the jawbone and can also do nasal and ear treatments. Do you think a person can keep their teeth using this method if they have an infection that has already destroyed the bone around their teeth?

Sandy: I have not had the ozone injections in my jawbone, but I have had the nasal and ear treatments with ozone. In 2003 I bought a medical grade ozone machine and have used it daily ever since. In my opinion, once you have an infection that has destroyed the jawbone around a tooth, the tooth and the dead bone must be removed before you will see any overall health improvements. After the oral surgery, I am sure the ozone treatments will speed the healing of the jawbone.

Question #2: My dentist told me about a kit that you can purchase to detect cavitations. Have you heard about this test? The website is here:

Sandy: Yes, I heard about it on June 30th, but I had already taken the Thermogram and was waiting for the results. If I had not been sent by my dentist to have a Cavitat Examination, I would have looked into the kit. After my oral surgery on July 31st, and if I have any further physical symptoms of toxicity, I’ll either go back for another Cavitat Examination or use the Topas Oral Pathology Assay kit to determine if I still have infection and/or dead bone in my jawbone.

Question: #3: Why do you go to Mexico to have your oral surgeries?

Sandy: My main reason for going to my Mexican oral surgeon is that I believe he is the best surgeon for my condition. For instance, he successfully performed a surgery that my California oral surgeon refused to perform, which was a three-hour surgery during which he removed a collagen graft that had become infected and had wrapped around my nerve. My California oral surgeon said he couldn’t do any more surgery in my lower right jawbone area (where he had placed the collagen graft) because it might cause facial paralysis. Plus, before that, he refused to perform surgery to remove a piece of a tooth root that was found in my jawbone on an MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) scan. I should also mention, although I would have paid any amount, the cost is less in Mexico than in the US for cavitation surgery.

Question #4: How did you find your Mexican oral surgeon?

Sandy: A reader of the newsletter recommended him. He was trained by Dr. Hal Huggins, D.D.S., and is highly regarded by everyone we have met who knows him. The surgeries he has performed in my mouth have cleaned up the mistakes and complications other dentists have left in my jawbone after they said they could do no more to help me.

Question #5: How do you get to Mexico, where do you stay, and how do you get around when you’re in Mexico?

Sandy: First we drive to San Ysidro, CA and stay at the International Motor Inn and RV Park (619) 428-4486. It is more expensive to stay there but they have kitchenettes and a free shuttle bus that goes back and forth to Mexico several times a day every day and takes people to various clinics in Mexico and picks them up when they call to be picked up and taken back to the US (they also take guests to a US health food store in the bus). Our dentist is on the shuttle’s route. Once we have been dropped off at the dentist’s office we often take a taxi to other places the dentist sends us to. The taxi we like to use is an old, Mexican taxi (with no AC) that is always at the corner by our dentist’s building. We became friends with the Mexican taxi driver after he opened his wallet and gave us some of his money (when we ran out of money in our wallets) and he trusted us to return it when we could. Since then he has driven us around Mexico whenever we are there because we trust him to get us where we need to go on time, in one piece, and at a fair price.

Question #6: What things that you have done to help you live through your ordeal with osteomyelitis would you recommend for someone who is going to have cavitaiton surgery?

Sandy:

  1. Use Lugol’s Iodine (6 drops in ¼ cup of distilled water) to rinse your mouth immediately after surgery. Rinse with it again every time you drink anything and, after three days when you are eating soft food, rinse every time you eat or drink until the stitches are removed. I have done this after every oral surgery I’ve had since July 2001 because I read about it in Dr. Clark’s book One Answer To Cancer (I’ve been to dentists who rinsed the surgery site with this solution before they sewed up my gums, and found that all the rinsing in the world doesn’t help if any dead bone is left in the jawbone). My Mexican dentist does not rinse the surgery site with Lugol’s Iodine, so I just excuse myself after he sews me up and rinse with the Lugol’s solution in the restroom (I carry the Lugol’s solution with me on surgery days). This method has worked perfectly for me.

  2. Take coffee enemas or coffee added to a colonic daily to pull toxins out of your liver. Make the coffee by brewing Yuban coffee one cup at a time (always use a filter) or by making several quarts of coffee concentrate at a time. To make four quarts of coffee concentrate, bring to a boil five quarts of distilled water, add 3¾ cups Yuban coffee and return to a boil, boil for 3 minutes, turn down heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Strain through a section of white paper towel (you will use several sections of paper towel before you are finished) placed in a funnel that you may use to fill four quart glass bottles. Store in the refrigerator. Use one cup of coffee concentrate and three cups distilled water (or more) for your enema. You may use an enema bag or an enema bucket for your enema (clean the bag or bucket after every use and they may be used over and over for many years). Take the coffee with you when you have a colonic at a clinic.

  3. Put flaxseed tea into your enemas. I recently read in Tissue Cleansing Through Bowel Management by Bernard Jensen (pages 104 and 110) that Flaxseed is an excellent bulk maker and provides a soothing and healing tea to be put into the enema solution. You prepare it by putting ¼ cup of flaxseed in 2 quarts distilled water; bring to boil then reduce heat and simmer about 30 minutes; turn off heat and leave overnight; strain seeds before using. I’ve been using one cup of this gelatinous liquid in my coffee enemas and it helps to sooth my colon. (Flaxseed tea must be refrigerated and kept only a couple of days. Flax oil cannot be used in place of flaxseed tea.)

  4. Use ozonated-distilled water by adding it to your coffee enemas or drinking it. You may use a medical ozonator or one of Dr. Clark’s Portazones to make the ozonated-distilled water. (I also take 2 capsules of Geneflora 3 times a day to replenish my friendly flora.)

  5. Alkalize yourself with several drops of Denali Green daily. Infections in the jawbone and the anesthetic at the time of surgery are very toxic and acidic and Denali Green will help eliminate the toxins and help alkalize the body.
