Re: Need advice on Lugol's usage after a tooth pulled

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

I have been in a dentist's chair a half a day and had a large molar extracted. I

surely could google this however I am just wonky and this is even before taking

the little pain pills waiting for me

Can I apply 2% on a cotton pad at some point? Will it really sting? Im guessing

so and how long should I wait before I try this? Or just gargle, well swish, I

mean in a water dilute?.

Really didn't want to take the amoxicillin, if I could skip it. Anyway, thank

you in advance.

I, too have had extractions, some very painful. I

did the prescription drugs for awhile, now I have discovered that a few

drops of Lugol's kills the pain for me... I now use it daily after

brushing before I go to bed. I just run the dropper over all of my

teeth - especially at the gum line. My mouth feels healthier than is

has in a long time.

Don't know about Lugols in a tooth socket. I use Celtic sea salt in my cooking and every night I gargle with warm water and the Celtic salt - appears to stop any infections, sore gums etc. and mouth feels and tastes just great.Sandy

I am SO happy. I had a dentist install a crown some

years ago. It has always ached and been a bit sore to use (is is my

canine tooth). I also have a chip out of one lower front tooth that is

sometimes sore. I cannot afford to get them fixed. So I use Lugol's

2% every night after I brush. I use 2 eyedroppers filled to do my

entire mouth. The canine is still sensitive to pressure, but nothing

else and the chipped portion of the lower tooth no longer give me any

problems. Maybe the Celtic salt would do the same, but I think of

iodine as a killer of food bacteria which are easily caught in the

chipped tooth as well as between teeth (I have implants and since they

are bridged, there is no easy way to floss.) Maybe this will be

helpful to someone. I do not mind the taste and feel that at least

while I am sleeping the iodine can do it's work. I gave a bottle of

Lugol's to a friend who has a broken tooth and he says he is

experiencing less pain since he has started putting it on his tooth.

ly, I think that bacteria grow well in our mouths and the food

many of us eat can easily get trapped providing a "meal" for the

bacteria.

I am also experimenting with DMSO and Iodine on my face. It is not

soon enough for me to notice a big difference, but my complexion seems

to be improving in just the last week since I started.

Hurray for Iodine. Such a "simple fix" for so many things!
