RCT linked to Breast cancer ?
Dr Robert Jones, a researcher, discovered a very high correlation between root canals and breast cancer. He performed a five year study of 300 breast cancer patients which showed that 93% of the women with breast cancer had root canals. Seven percent had other dental issues. An interesting note was that tumors, in most cases, manifested on the same side of the body as the root canal(s) or where dental restoration we performed. Dr Jones determined that toxins from the bacteria in the infected tooth and jawbone may inhibit the body’s natural ability to suppress tumor development. NEWSLINK

The new filling made from calcium that stops your face looking old
Bone loss can also cause the gum line to collapse, which can make the face appear narrower, sunken and older.
A gel ‘filling’ made from calcium could prevent complications after having your teeth extracted. The filling is injected into the socket immediately after a tooth is removed to encourage the growth of new bone.
This prevents the surrounding jawbone weakening and shrinking away — a common problem when a tooth has been removed.
It can lead to problems with biting and chewing as well as making it more difficult for future dental work, such as implants or bridges, which require a good bony foundation..UK NEWS
