Pain Free Cavity Treatments

If you are afraid of drills and dentists, you might want to consider pain free cavity treatments. There are two pain free cavity treatments that you can opt for. One uses lasers and requires a dentist to administer and the other is a self-healing treatment.

The Solea Laser Occlusion Preparation treatment from Convergent Dental, Inc., according to the Gold Edison award winning company is "the world’s first computer-aided, CO2 laser system to ever be cleared by the FDA for both hard and soft tissue indications."

The company reports on its web site "that Solea dentists are experiencing efficiency gains of 25% – 40%, enabling them to routinely perform six or more additional procedures per day." The company also reports such efficiency gains are obtained without anesthesia and that there is "no need to inject patients or wait for them to get numb.


The product was introduced in June of 2015 and dentists are now offering the Solea Laser Occlusion Preparation Treatment at various locations throughout the United States (see their find a dentist page at http://www.convergentdental.com/find-a-dentist/).


The other alterative is a self-healing nutritional treatment. These type of treatments  are based on high density mineral, protien and vitamin washes that are administered on regular basis throughout the day. Most of the treatments involve mixing calcium, magnesium, zinc and silica mineral tablets (available from most health food stores) with everyday oils such as coconut oil, rice bran oil or sesame seed oil.

Whats interesting about high density nutritional mouth washes is that the ingredients, since they are just a mix of necessary nutrients and edible oils,  appear to be relativelly safe. Some might argue that these ingredients are much safer than what is found in the most popular mouth washes and tooth paste.


Whether or not these mouth washes treatment alone can stop the progress of decay and remineralize a tooth such that the pain from a cavity will stop is an open question. And that's because the progress of decay depends on a person's diet and a number of other factors. Such treatments are also said to often require that the patient stop the consumption of foods that are high in sugar content as well as go on a very high nutrition diet.

Whats different about the mineral mouth wash idea is that it takes the ideas of Dr Weston Price one step further. Dr. Weston Price recommends  a diet with silica and magnesium supplements or foods that are rich in silica and magnesium (http://healthwyze.org/index.php/component/content/article/646-how-to-cure-cavities.html)

Mineral mouth wash theory, on the other hand,  is based on the assumption that the mouth and the teeth will absorb minerals at a much faster rate then if they are just swallowed. For example, some vitamins are often administered under the tongue (See The Advantages of Sublingual Vitamin B-12, http://healthyeating.sfgate.com/advantages-sublingual-vitamin-b12-9022.html). This in turn according to the theory will allow for the faster remineralization of the teeth.

Nutritional dental healing theory also ascribes to the creation of an oral environment that does not encourage the growth of cavity causing bacteria. Some take this to practice by including foods such as yogurt, garlic and lots of different spices.


Warning:Always consult a qualified health care provider and nutritionist to help you evaluate different formulas and alternatives to traditional dental methods.  Also read the directions and warnings on vitamin and mineral supplements. Although some treatment methods work well for some people, they may not be suitable or applicable to your dental problem or your specific life style or be safe if you have a medical condition. There are numerous environmental and physical conditions that effect tooth decay, oral health and efficacy of treatments. Among them are diet, water, general physical health, methodology and application of dental treatment, exercise and even air quality.
