[QUOTE="Patrick Coon, post: 297055, member: 11366"] Yeah, I watched this as well. What a farce. Most of it was junk science from what I saw. I will agree, there is science showing that bacteria from a root abscess can lead to endocarditis, and that folks with heart valve replacements need to be on good antibiotics before getting root canal therapy (or any real dental work done) due to infection from the mouth getting in the blood stream and causing problems with the valves (my brother-in-law had heart valve replacement and got this instruction). And as long as I've been in the dental field (Since 1985) premedication for people with heart conditions has been pretty standard (although, maybe not as standard now as in the past),for the same reason. Other than that, I don't think there are any real peer reviewed studies on any of the other claims of "scientific proof" talked about in the "documentary." [/QUOTE]
