EUROPE BANNED THIS CARCINOGEN, AMERICA CALLS IT SAFE!

Why Calm Feels Impossible

SPEAKER_01 0:00

We cannot activate the parasympathetic nervous system due to that. Chronic dental infections, cavitations, infected root canals, and potentially metal dental implants.

Dr Pompa 0:09

Dentistry is unfortunately a major cause of chronic disease today.

SPEAKER_01 0:15

Europeans in 2022 they banned titanium dioxide from their food supply systems because they found out it is a neurotoxin, it is potentially a carcinogen.

Dr Pompa 0:27

We're building homes wrong, and 70-some percent have cold and families are sick. It's tragic.

SPEAKER_01 0:33

Oral bacteria being found in the plaques of people who have heart attacks. 90% of those plaques that they collect have origin of the oral source.

Titanium Dioxide Is Everywhere

Dr Pompa 0:46

All right, we are here live in Cannes. Have you heard of titanium dioxide? Well, I don't know if you heard it or not, but it's probably in almost everything that you're using. And oh, wait till you hear why it could be an answer to everything that you're dealing with health-wise. Okay, we're also gonna learn a little bit about why your nerve system's all wound up. Okay, I'm here with Dr. Yuri May, man. Thank you for this topic that you're bringing. I'm super excited. Titanium dioxide, let's just start there because people are ingesting it unknowing. I mean, in personal care products and toothpaste and everything, and it's poison.

SPEAKER_01 1:24

Especially food supply. In the US, we have titanium dioxide as a colorant. Uh we find colorings. So a lot of the coatings. So in the US, we can have we can have up to one percent of the food being titanium dioxide. It is candy, it is um sweets, it is colorants, like sweet, like skim milk, we can make it whiter, soups, all processed foods can have titanium dioxide in it. That is a common exposure. Um the Europeans in tw in 2022 they banned titanium dioxide from their food supply system because they found out it is a neurotoxin, it is potentially a carcinogen in carcinogen in um animal models. So they've taken out in the US, we also see it as a um in candy, saying as artificial coloring. Yeah, right. So, what is artificial coloring? The real answer is we don't know. In our foods, in our food supply system, we can put anything in titanium dioxide is a big exposure we can which can sensitize our immune system.

Dr Pompa 2:30

Yeah. So, I mean, this is like this is more new information. I mean, you know, I've been avoiding titanium dioxide for some years, but it seems like it's only now coming out. Most people watching this really, you know, they don't know. Even in our health space, most people don't know. They always say, What do you think of titanium dioxide? Where did you learn this information? Where did you hear about it?

Dental Implants And Immune Sensitisation

SPEAKER_01 2:51

So the the place we learned the most is we learned about titanium dental implants. And what is a titanium dental implant outer layer is titanium dioxide. Yeah, and now we see a lot of perimplantitis. What is perimplantitis? It is inflammation around dental metal titanium implants. Yeah, we have uh the immune system, the macrophages and neutrophils that are cleaning up the corrosion that's coming off the titanium dental implant, which is the titanium dioxide. And as these immune molecules are um absorbing the titanium dioxide, they're creating an inflammatory pathway. They're releasing interleukin 1 alpha, the TNF umtrile 6, and the TNF alpha. So all of those inflammatory cytokines locally creating inflammation and bone loss around the metal implants. Right. So then I went to further search. I was like, why is titanium dioxide? Why are we reacting to it? And what do we know? Our body has been sensitized to titanium dioxide. It's not a new molecule that our immune system is seeing. Our body is used to seeing it in food products that we've been ingesting for years, in sunscreen, in cosmetics that we're putting in our skin. So our immune system is already sensitized to this potential toxin, and now we're implanting it in our jawbone.

Dr Pompa 4:18

Man. And you think that cell phones, does it make it worse? I mean, you act like a human antenna. I mean, here's you have that metal implant there, titanium implant.

SPEAKER_01 4:28

So there is multiple processes for the titanium implant breakdown.

Corrosion Biofilm And Peri Implantitis

SPEAKER_01 4:34

So we have a triboric corrosion. So let's talk about what that is. It is um metal coming off the implant by the way by way of, you know, for example, acidity, right? Our implant is in a jawbone, and our mouth is a hostile environment. So we have change in temperature, we have change in acidity, and we have bacteria that colonizes that that implant. So as the as acids are breaking down the metals, we have corrosion particles coming off. That's number one. Number two, that's contributing to the corrosion is the biofilm and the bacteria that accumulates.

Dr Pompa 5:12

Absolutely.

SPEAKER_01 5:13

So we know that metal implants attract more biofilm than ceramics.

Dr Pompa 5:19

By the way, this is all through the medical literature. I mean, that's why they're moving to ceramic implants, even in hips and knees, but yet it's not happening fast enough. Absolutely.

SPEAKER_01 5:30

And the mouth is a lot more harsh environment than an orthopedic environment. Very acid, you have this bacteria that colonizes. And what does the bacteria produce? It produces more acid. And that acid goes ahead and continues to break down the metal implants. And the more of the implant is exposed, the more bacteria accumulates. It's kind of a futile cycle. Why? Because the implant needs to be rough to integrate into the bone, for the bone to attach to the implant. But when the implant becomes slightly exposed, you pair implantitis and loss of the bone around the implant, that rough surface is exposed, and it's a perfect area for the bacteria to come and colonize it. And what type of bacteria? Anaerobic bacteria.

Dr Pompa 6:16

They live without oxygen and they're deadly and they ruin your gut.

SPEAKER_01 6:20

Absolutely. And they also produce a lot of endotoxins. Right? So those endotoxins are inflammatory to the local system and to the overall immune system and the neurosystem.

Dr Pompa 6:33

Yeah.

How To Cut Daily Exposure

Dr Pompa 6:35

So, first of all, uh, people want to de, you know, get this out of their system, right? Obviously, root canals get the metal out of the mouth for a starting place. But also, as you pointed out, they have to read it in their food ingredients and their personal care products, right? So you want to get all titanium dioxide out. Absolutely.

SPEAKER_01 6:56

And part of it is not eating processed foods. Yeah. Eating things without a barcode. Eating real foods. That's what it comes down to. And you know, Europeans have done a good job. They're kind of leading, not having GMO products, taking titanium dioxide out of the products, a cleaner food supply will create a healthier population.

Dr Pompa 7:18

You know, I I'm on the Maha board, and uh obviously we're working to get a lot of these ingredients out, right? You know, catch up to Europe for that matter. Uh, you know, I do you think it will come down for a uh, you know, can it come down in this administration to get this stuff out of the food like Europe's done? Absolutely.

SPEAKER_01 7:37

I believe we're already taking the right steps. Yeah, I believe we're already taking some of the colorants out that we know.

Dr Pompa 7:42

Colorings are coming out, yeah. Exactly.

SPEAKER_01 7:44

So I think it's one step at a time, and I think the movement is here to educate. Yep. And we have the right people that are leading the way.

Dr Pompa 7:55

Yeah, absolutely. And but until that happens, read the ingredients. Yeah. Get get to a biological dentist. And by the way, how do they find you? Where is your practice?

SPEAKER_01 8:05

Naturaldentistrycenter.com or Instagram at Natural Dentistry Center. We're located in Connecticut outside of New York City.

Dr Pompa 8:13

Yeah. Uh great, great dentist, as you

Trigeminal Nerve Meets Vagus Nerve

Dr Pompa 8:16

can tell. You know a lot about the trigeminal nerve and its relationship. The reason I know about it is because I was very chemically sensitive, very mold sensitive. And one thing we've learned is those sensitivities are driven actually by the trigeminal nerve and its relationship to the brainstem and the relationship to the brain. It literally creates sensitivity. But tell us, educate us more about this.

SPEAKER_01 8:40

So the trigeminal nerve has three branches we have the ophthalmic branch, the maxillary branch, and the mandibular branch. It is the main nerve that innerveys the head and neck area and sends sensory input to the brain and the brainstem.

Dr Pompa 8:54

And by the way, that's why mold it creates this, you know, hypersensitivity because of that.

SPEAKER_01 9:00

Absolutely. And the concern is chronic dental infections, chronic oral inflammations, and uh inflammatory cytokines, they come in of the bacteria that is in the mouth, create sensitization to that nerve. So in acute situation, right, we have pain, we have infection, that's the acute situation. But those chronic infections are chronically sending alarm signals to the nerve. So the nerve is chronically sensitized. And where does the um the trigeminal nerve ganglion sit? It sits in the brain stem, right next to the vagus nerve. And we have crossover of signaling going from the trigeminal nerve to the vagus nerve. So what is the vagus nerve responsible for? Rest and digest, relaxation. And what do we have an epidemic of? Chronic fatigue, poor sleep, right? Those are kind of the main things I have patients coming in.

Dr Pompa 9:57

Yeah, so many people with SIBO, which is basically the small intestines, the vagus nerves connected to something called the migrating motor complex, which controls movement through your small intestine, and people don't move fast enough because of the vagal input or the lack of, and they end up fermenting bacteria or uh fermenting foods, fibrous bacteria in the small intestine, and they get a lot of bloating, gas, symptoms, etc.

SPEAKER_01 10:25

But it's digestion, absolutely, the vagus nerve digestion. And what happens when the vagus, when the trigeminal nerve is always on, always sending warning signals, always sending the signal of danger, yeah, we cannot activate the parasympathetic nervous system due to that chronic dental infections, cavitations, infected root canals, and potentially metal dental implants.

Dr Pompa 10:49

This is the conversation, by the way, this is the conversation that I have with many people that I say, look,

Cortisol Sleep And Gut Symptoms

Dr Pompa 10:56

even if this, whether it's hidden infection, a root canal, whatever it is, the titanium implant, isn't what made you sick, you won't get well without dealing with it. Because what we've learned is the sensitivity, the cellular danger response, whether it be mold, chemicals, and leaving people in this state, is so much of this trigeminal nerve issue because it picks up the sensitivity. So until they get that stress off the trigeminal nerve, they don't get well.

SPEAKER_01 11:23

Right. And the other connection over the trigeminal nerve is the same sensation sends it all the way to the brain, to the hypothalamus. Yeah. Pain, inflammation, danger. That's what the trigeminal nerve is sensing. And then we activate the HPX, HPA access. The pituitary glands sets single to the adrenal glands, and then we have increase of cortisol. Yeah. Right? And what is, you know, how do we attribute it to poor sleep? We have normal daily cortisol range. In the morning, we need to have high cortisol. We wake up and during the day it rests down. But what if your body constantly producing cortisol because of the chronic infection? That's right.

Dr Pompa 12:02

Exactly. And people are chasing it. Even in the natural health space, people are chasing the downstream symptoms that you just mentioned, even driving weight loss resistance when it's upstream and again starting in the mouth.

A Two And A Half Hour Workup

Dr Pompa 12:15

How do you assess somebody when they come in? Um, do you have a process where you look at this, this, this, this?

SPEAKER_01 12:21

Absolutely. So our new patient experience is two and a half hours. When patients come in, they say, like, this is the most detailed dental evaluation I've had. So for the first hour, we collect the records, which include CBCT x-rays, intra-oral x-rays, photos, microbial slide, where which we do plaque analysis, we do the photos, and then we get in to do the exam with the patient. So the big thing is taking the history of the patient, reviewing the medical history, reviewing the dental history, correlating the timeline of their dental treatment to certain times where they can have chronic metal health conditions arising. Yeah. Really getting the big picture on the on the patient side.

Dr Pompa 13:02

I, you know, I'm doing that on my end. You know, when I in our train my doctors and my coaches to do that, you know, correlate someone's history with when things started, dental work. They're trained even to look into their dental work. When did you get that? When did this start, right? How many doctors are doing that? So few, but actually, even dentists, even the biological dentists, most of them aren't taking that step to correlate when health went bad with certain things that were done here.

SPEAKER_01 13:28

Absolutely. And when you ask the patient about the timeline, they say, Oh, oh, wow, that makes sense. That's kind of when it started. And I gotta tell thank you to that to you, Dr. Pampa, and your coaches to really bringing the forward the light of whole whole body health and the importance of oral care as part of systemic

Stop Chasing Symptoms Remove Stressors

SPEAKER_01 13:49

health.

Dr Pompa 13:49

You know, it's just I'm irritated with uh alternative medicine, functional medicine, um, right now because I feel like we're moving away from that. I feel like we're moving away from actually getting to the cause. Because what you hear is like, oh, well, I'm getting to the cause, I'm dealing with their gut. No, no, no. The gut's not the cause. The toxins and the you know, these stressors that we're talking about are affecting the gut. And until you deal with that, until you deal with asking them what type of home they're living in, or you know, is there mold in the home or what's going on here, you know, that's upstream. And I feel like alternative medicine's moving away from it for some reason.

SPEAKER_01 14:24

And I've seen a lot of patients that have come through your program who have found me over the years, and everybody asks, they're getting positive results. These spaces have been kind of hit a roadblock where a lot of the treatments have been let's add this, yeah, let's add this. Yeah, but we need to also look what do we need to remove? We need to remove those toxins. Absolutely. Our bucket load is full of toxins, yeah, and removing dental toxins is part of the puzzle.

Dr Pompa 14:50

Yeah, it's it's a huge part of the process. I mean, and I again I I emphasize it, even if this wasn't what made you well or made you sick, you won't get well until you deal with it. I have people that are in moldy homes that get sick there in another stressor. It's a perfect storm always, but this is part of that perfect storm now, and we they we'll see them. They will not get well until we deal with this. I mean, it's a I don't know if the Dr. J, I was just interviewing him, he showed a parasite this long, and it came out of a uh an infected cavitation. Absolutely. That person chased their parasites for I think he said two years on parasite medication, every you know, parasite protocol. They were hiding, they were hiding there. So again, you know, it was it what made her sick? I don't know, but she wasn't gonna get well until she dealt with that.

SPEAKER_01 15:42

The jawbone is a perfect hiding spot. Yeah. Why? Because we don't have the blood flow to those areas, the immune system cannot get there. Viruses, bacteria, parasites, right, and patients with chronic Lyme disease. When we do a biopsy of the cavitation side, when we send the root canal treated teeth for the bacterial analysis, we find a lot of anaerobic bacteria, a lot of parasites in Lyme disease. Yeah because the immune system cannot get there to clean it up. You can take your antibiotics, you can take your antiparasitics systemically, but if you don't have the blood flow to deliver it to the source, there is no way it's gonna have a full effect.

Dr Pompa 16:20

That that's it, man. I'm telling you, dentistry is unfortunately a major cause of chronic disease today because the way it's been taught and still still teaching it, um, but it's also, and the this is the good note, it's also the answer to so much chronic disease. Y'all hold the keys. I I just uh one of the big dental conferences I lectured at, and I started the conversation by how many of you believe that you can impact the you know all these chronic diseases? I I I had a list, you know, and absolutely cure these you know diseases. And most of the room's hands went up, but some didn't. But I'm like, but see, I believe that. That's why I'm the number one referral to biological dentist because I believe it and I saw it, I've seen it for you know 20 years now. And unfortunately, a lot of people in my space aren't seeing it. And uh, I hope more see these videos and you know, these absolutely.

SPEAKER_01 17:16

You know, the goal is to educate the consumer, the whole goal is to educate the patient and the other people in the integrative health world. So functional medicine doctors can look at the dental piece just like the dentists look at the systemic aspect of

Moldy Homes And Airway Orthodontics

SPEAKER_01 17:30

the city.

Dr Pompa 17:30

You know, if you're not dealing today with looking at people's environment, especially in the US, because we're building homes wrong and and 70 some percent have mold and families are sick, it's tragic. But if you're not working, if functional medicine doctor out there is not working closely with biological dentists, they're not they're not gonna get people well today because so much of it starts here. From childhood, to your point, the wisdom teeth. Oh, for uh orthodonistry, you know, we're pulling teeth and in uh closing down the jaw instead of opening. I can't tell you how many dents talked about airway problems because we're causing them as children, you know, with orthodontistry.

SPEAKER_01 18:07

Absolutely, you know, getting a solid foundation from the ground up is important. That's why if we see a biological dentist earlier on, the goal would be to create proper jaw size so we have room for the teeth. So we don't need to do the extractions of those teeth, right? We're God given those 32 teeth, and our jaws, because of our epigenetics of the food that we're eating, yeah, of the environment we're living in, our jaws are not developing to the size that they need to develop. Yeah, and as the biological dentist, we want to look at the function, use functional orthodontic appliance early on in the childhood to create to prevent the problems down the road.

Dr Pompa 18:49

Yeah, yeah, exactly. Well said. You know, I it's uh it's tragic, but the the answer oftentimes, you know, lies right here in the mouth. And it's maybe it sounds overly simple, maybe it sounds overly complicated, I don't know. But when we look at you know the fatigue that people have, you know, you covered it. When you look at the gut problems, the brain problems, the the how cortisol can't lose weight, oftentimes it's right here. You know, and um how did you get into this, man? I I mean, because I yet I have yet to find a biological dentist that just said, you know what, I'm gonna grow up and be a biological dentist. No, it typically happens through a story to themselves or a loved one. What happened with you?

Mercury Root Canals And Cancer Links

SPEAKER_01 19:29

So as you said, everybody has a story. So I went to dental school, traditional dental school, just like everybody else. Um, and I was lucky early, like early enough in my career to be um exposed to mercury being a potential issue. I was still in dental school a childhood friend who had a vaccine-injured child, and she was like, you know, vaccines at the moment had mercury in there and dental feelings have mercury. It's like, do you know that? I'm like, yeah, I mean, we took a dental materials class. Yes, it's mercury, but it's not a problem. And she gave me an Andy Cutler book, which is a heavy chemistry book, and she was like, you know, you read it, you educate yourself, you make the decision for yourself. Um, so I read the book and it made perfect sense. It's a neurotoxin, um, accumulates in the body. It's you know, most toxic, non-radioactive element. Yeah. And and I was like, wait, we can just go ahead and get rid of this in our sewer. This is toxic to our sewer system. We need to have an amalgam separating.

Dr Pompa 20:30

Yeah, before it goes in, it's considered hazardous waste before it goes in your body. In your mouth, it's considered safe. The moment it comes out, it's handled as hazardous waste again.

SPEAKER_01 20:39

Absolutely. And I was like, well, if it's so bad for the sewerage system, I'm like, maybe there is something wrong, maybe there's something wrong with this. That was kind of the eye-opening stuff. And then, you know, the root canal story is a you know, is a different story. So my mom, I was still in dental school. Unfortunately, she had breast cancer. I didn't correlate kind of the two together, but guess how many root canals she had? 14 root canals.

Dr Pompa 21:03

And hasn't there been studies in rabbits on the side of the root canal is where the cancer actually so in the energy meridian system, teeth are connected to energy meridian systems.

SPEAKER_01 21:14

So when you have a root canal, which is a potentially has infection uh periapical, chronic periapical peritentitis, that will affect the energy meridian system and take the energy off the energy flow associated with the organ on that meridian system. That is one pathway of contributing to cancer. The other way is the lymphatic system. Um, our when we have infection in the jawbone, they're gonna drain through the lymphatic system and the venous system. So, where does the lymphatic system go? It goes from the jaw to the thyroid to the breast area. That's the main areas of the chronic bacterial infection. The other association, in addition to cancer, is we have heart disease.

Oral Bacteria And Heart Attack Plaque

SPEAKER_01 22:00

Dr. Levy talks about um oral bacteria being found in the plaques of the people who have heart attacks. 90% of those plaques that they collect have origin of the oral source. Why? Again, this is going to be the venous blood flow, right? So we have bacteria that will drain through the venous system slowly in the veins with a low blood flow through the vein systems to the pulmonary system, which is all kind of low blood pressure, and then from the from the pulmonary systems enters the left atrium and then the left ventricle, and that's where you get a high blood flow, blood pressure. And these bacteria get disseminated first place of the high blood flow is the coronary arteries, and that's where they create the inflammation, right? That's where they colonize the coronary arteries, and we have the plaque that accumulates in there. And that plaque is often sourced with bacteria, then flormatocytokines from the oral cavity.

Dr Pompa 23:00

Man, Dr. May, you're a wealth of knowledge, man. And that was a great explanation. And if that doesn't convince people, nothing will. How do they find you again, man?

SPEAKER_01 23:10

Uh, NaturaldentistryCenter.com or Instagram at Natural Dentistry Center.

Dr Pompa 23:16

Thanks for taking the time out and being here, man. Appreciate it. Great info, bro.
