Dental Treatment with a Gold Alloy Cast Crown for Severe Lumbago

Abstract: The patient was a 41-year-old woman experiencing severe lumbago for several years. The physician-in-charge referred her for dental treatment because examination did not reveal any specific abnormality in her lower back. Prior to the treatment, the patient could barely bend forward and backward because of serious back pain. Her body flexibility and lower back pain improved when a gold alloy cast crown was placed near her feet. However, when the crown was covered with aluminum foil, it was again very difficult f… Show more

“…In this report, two customized mouthguards were compared. The old mouthguard raised the occlusal vertical dimension by approximately 3 mm at the anterior teeth; the new one provided the same occlusal vertical dimension but was designed with a horizontal occlusal position that was associated with the maximal grip strength achieved during the Bi-Digital O-Ring Test [4] [5] [6] [11] [12]. When using the new mouthguard, higher kicking force, punching force, and back muscle strength were achieved than those achieved when using Figure 4.…”

“…The author has spent a long time studying the relationship between dentistry and the whole body. These two systems are interdependent, and in clinical cases, symptoms such as joint dysregulation: low back pain, stiff shoulders, hip joint dysregulation [1] [2] [3] [4], dermatitis [5] [6], and electromagnetic hypersensitivity [7] [8] [9] [10] [11]. However, because such complaints sometimes improve quickly after reforming a denture that has been removed from their mouth, after extracting an infected tooth, or by bringing the medicine closer to the body [12], the mechanisms underlying these observations cannot be fully explained by conventional medicine that many scientists and practitioners commonly believe in.…”
