YEA!! I have lost 12 lbs~~~I have been going to an Ayruvedic counselor for the last 5 months~~from my name you know I do Yoga~~Ayruveda is the sister to yoga. It is a different way of eating, being and living. I can not explain it all to you here, I am a work in progress. I have for about 5 years now been making several life style changes~~Yoga which includes meditation. I also took yoga teacher training classes, I do not care to teach just wanted the information. I go to a life coach and 5 months ago I added Ayruveda. I became a vegetarian a year ago also~~~~I have just been trying to practice loving kindness and mindfulness (this includes mindful eating). I have had so much stress in my life in the last 4-5 years. I knew I had to do something and this is what I have done and it seems to be working for me;)

When the nerve in a tooth dies and the blood flow is compromised, it becomes a site for infection. If the infection can be subdued, the tooth is a canidate for a root canal. However, the root canal can not be finished until the infection is gone. If the dentist should fill the hollowed out tooth, and the infection is still around, it will continue and create a big mess at the bone. I've had several sucessful root canals and each time, the tooth was cleaned out, a medicated packing inserted, and a temporary plug installed. Each week there after, the plug and packing was removed and when the dentist was satisfied that it was safe to continue, he filled the tooth. Apparently, your teeth were not canidates for a root canal. You mentioned 'shallow roots'. I suspect it was really a recession of supporting bone material and the remining material was not eoungh to stabalize the tooth even if the infection was beat down. Recently, I had to have a molar removed. Over the years, it tended to loosen and infect. It was yet alive, but the bone loss had become too great (partly an effect of diabetes). It became infected and was clearing up, but was removed anyway. The dentist judged that it should be removed to protect the adjacent tooth, else it also would be affected by infection and bone loss. Removal of this tooth did speed up the cure of infection and did aid the health of the adjacent tooth. It was a trouble maker that needed to go.

if you really want to go all out, google "choo choo shoes". i bought the first pair for my grandson when he was 2 and of course, he outgrew them quickly so had to go up in sizes. i think he's been through 3 pairs now and he loves them. they do have a "silence" feature but the sounds aren't very loud.
