Guest guest Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 The majority of root canals fail and end up creating the potential for focal infections. Your immune is then stressed trying to keep those infections in check. Chronic infections can cause adrenal fatigue. So, the dentist kindof has it backwards. Root canals can contribute to significant health issues, although you will have extremely difficulty in finding a dentist that will admit that. Some things you can do to improve your immune system are the basics like nutrition (avoid sugars, take necessary supplements like vitamin D, vitamin C), manage stress, get quality sleep, etc. B. Please advise if you have any direction for me to get additional information. Had previously been on hydrocortisone for adrenal fatigue and was recovering. Weaned off of the cortisol, moved and new dentist discovered root canals that were 20 years old had failed. Had two teeth extracted in December. Dentist is sure it is due to the weak immune system which is due to the adrenal fatigue. Dr. has put me back on cortisol but I need to find out if there are additional things I can do to restore my immune system to health.
