I can't spend my whole time here doing literature review for my posts here, but while I don't have a subscription to the J. or Endo., I'll look around when I get the chance to reference some studies regarding clinical outcomes, bacterial leakage, etc. I cannot promise they will fulfill your stringent requirements for clinical control, but I'll see what I can come up with.

From: drkulacz on 20 Oct 2005 22:04 First. Find controlled studies that were performed to refute Price and repeat his work. Second. Forget about Price altogether. Look at the data on necrotic debris left in most all root canals. Root canals are not sterile. ADA agrees with this. The jaw bone is infected from the non sterile root canals. There are plenty of studies on that. if you can't find them then you do not know how to do research as they are abundant. Enough fun for me on this board. I would like to help and offer an intelligent exchange of data but this is too hostile a place for me and life is too short for this. Have fun.
From: drkulacz on 20 Oct 2005 23:43 The article was NOT about a file in the sinus. Please read correctly. You are wrong regarding your dtatement of your article. In addition, ENT's are well aware of the tooth-sinus problem. Dentists are not. Dentists do not know medicine. This is clear when speaking with dentists and when I was teaching. That is why I worked with physicians and tried to stay clear of dentists. The responses by dentists and the level of understanding of medicine were very similar to the level of cognitive thought presented on this board by dentists. This is not a put down. This is a fact. Second, I do not do Endo. I just take care of the people that become ill from the endo teeth already performed. Most of these endo treated teeth performed by endodontists. Third. I love the way people talk aroud here. Dude, Liar,etc. It realy adds to the professionalism of dentistry and is why it deserves a lower level of respect than given physicians.

Real mature. You could not possibly have the title of Dr. That could not be possible with a suggesstion like "cue the spammers to fill your mailbox". That type of behavior is for children. Silly me thinking that you were a dentist with a post like that. |
