Our teeth are connected to the rest of our bodies through their roots. There is blood flow, there is communication. We rely on our teeth to help us live. If we can’t chew, we can’t eat, and then where would we be? I am blessed with strong teeth. I haven’t had that many problems. The first problem, however, was when I was only 11. A bad dentist didn’t catch a cavity (but I did - he told me to be quiet), so that by the time I came back, a year later, it was too late. The root canal was, well, suffice it to say that the next time a tooth hurt, I was scared to tell anyone, so a year later, I had to have ANOTHER root canal. That one didn’t hurt.
Those dead teeth have served me well for over 38 years. They’ve been sweet, quiet, helpful. Until 2008. Right after Mom died (okay, like 2 months), I had swollen gums in one root canal. I had to have a RE-root canal. It wasn’t bad. Seriously. But now, as I feel my still-sore jaw and tooth from my LATEST root canal, my RE-root canaled tooth is hurting. I think it will have to go. But then I wonder what’s going on? Why can’t I catch a break? Why do my teeth keep getting infected? Is this the end of it, or will more go? So without further ado, I present: the higher perspective (because things are never as they appear down here).
Dear One: what excitement you have been experiencing! You have had the unique chance to embrace all of your fears and walk boldly right into the middle of them. We do not wish to downplay your discomfort and anxiety. These are anxious times, in so many ways. But we wish to say that in relation to what others are going through, your dental ‘problems’ are still mild. You could have cancer, or other sickness. Your children could be sick, you could have lost your income, your home. And yes, again, we realize that whatever you’re going through is what you’re going through, but also in difficult times it may be helpful for you to look around at the rest of the world and realize things could be much, much ‘worse.’ For the word ‘worse’ is in quotation marks because that is a judgment term, and we invite you to erase judgment terms from your vocabulary. You will still have an ample number of words, we assure you! You ask about your dental woes, so we tell you these are a long time coming. The work that was originally done was not sufficient for your energy system, and it has caused several medical complications throughout the years. We are attempting to help you correct all of those years of imbalance. Will you lose that tooth? At this point it is advised. Regarding your other teeth? Whatever has been done imperfectly will be coming up for correction, so you can decide which ‘teeth’ that includes. That goes for the rest of your life, as well. If there is an imperfect relationship, you will shortly be given the opportunity to bring perfection and balance to it, or to leave it permanently. Nothing will be left unfinished. Closure is the word of the day. These events (teeth included) have been hanging over your head for much of your life, and that’s long enough! You need to clear out, clean up, and become new in all ways before you can move on. Do you understand?
You will know what to do when the time comes - do not be afraid. You are safe and healthy and protected (as always). There is nothing to fear, little one. Everything happens for a reason, even if it isn’t instantly apparent to you. Trust trust trust. And yes - in fact you CAN handle the Truth, because you are hearing it now. And we think you understand. And for the record, it’s not only about the ‘tooth’ - it’s about the root and what it’s connected to - all of YOU. That’s what it’s about.
