Person with handle @stuartstein7495 | Back Pain (Herniated Disc) | Cause of Pain is Dental

This stuartstein7495 person posted a comment in June 2025 to this YouTube video, Jesus Had to be Part of This One SD 480p, which is on the RobertRowenMD YouTube channel, in which he tells the story of how he discovered that his back pain was caused by dental issues.

Here is a copy paste of this testimonial:

I’ve commented before, but I will say it again. I had a herniated disc and other vertebrae knocked out of place. I went to the dentist and could barely ever get into their chairs. I got an injection of procaine, and the pain in my back disappeared completely, so much so that I asked the dentist what exactly was in the injection (it actually wasn't procaine but similar). It did wear off though, and the pain came back. I went to the doctor and asked for Lidocaine patches, but they did absolutely nothing for the pain. It was watching your videos that made me realize that what probably happened was by chance, the dentist had injected the nerve that connected to the meridian to that specific part in my spine.

Person with handle RW5057 | Rheumatoid Arthritis | Cause of Pain is Dental

This RW5057 person posted a comment in February 2025 on the Versus Arthritis website, https://community.versusarthritis.org/discussion/63995/rheumatoid-arthritis-linked-to-dental-health, in which he tells the story of how he was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis, found out about Root Canals causing distant pain, started to wonder if the Root Canal he had 6 months before being diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis might have actually been what caused his Rheumatoid Arthritis, so he had the tooth removed, but he still had Rheumatoid Arthritis, then he got a dental implant, and his “hands flared up to be virtually unusable,” so he had the implant removed, “and within 2 weeks I was back to minimal symptoms,” and since then, he has been very careful, still takes methotrexate, and he has almost no symptoms now [NOTE: it is possible that RW5057 has a dental cavitation that has not been addressed, so that could be why he still has Rheumatoid Arthritis]

Here is a copy paste of this testimonial:

I was diagnosed with RA about 1998. The internet was new then but I did some searches and found one that seemed compelling. It was the story of Dr Weston Price. In the early 1900’s he took teeth that had undergone root canals and implanted them under the skin of rabbits. The rabbits developed RA like symptoms. He came up with a theory that you can get what he called a focal infection in the tooth that can affect other parts of the body. This was interesting to me because I had a root canal about 6 months to a year before I was diagnosed. I had no pain in my mouth but I asked my dentist about it. She had never heard about it but did an X-ray just to be sure. It turned out it was infected. I had the tooth removed and had a bridge for several years. I took Methotrexate starting then. After several years a second tooth went bad and had to be removed so I no longer had a bridge. In 2018 I decided to get a dental implant. Within 2 weeks of getting the post put in my hands flared up to be virtually unusable. I had the implant removed and within 2 weeks I was back to minimal symptoms. Since then I have been very careful about brushing, flossing, using a interstitial dental brush and finally using mouthwash every night. I still take the methotrexate and I have almost no symptoms now.

When I first mentioned this to my dentist the medical community did not buy into this theory but recent searches I have done show that there may be a connection. Based on my experience I have no doubts that there is.

I hope this story helps others.
