To illustrate the key difference between awareness and consciousness, let's take the example of a well-known experiment in dentistry. A dentist gave his patients an inert, placebo pill and told them that they were receiving a painkiller. They then had a tooth drilled, which should have hurt but didn't. They were responding to the idea of a painkiller rather than the pain of the drill. They were aware of the drill (the event) but unconscious of the pain.
Here we see encapsulated the entire difference between consciousness and awareness. |

Nickel
Nickel is worthy of special mention because, although it is one of the most durable metals, it is also one of the most carcinogenic metals in the world. Yet it is often used as a main component, over 70%, in making crowns, bridges, braces, and partial dentures. |

Modern medicine and dentistry have themselves been involved in the gold rush to profit from the use of dangerous chemicals and have contributed greatly to the intense poisoning of our bodies. At the time of our greatest need, when public health has deteriorated especially among the young6 and elderly, our doctors, dentists and public health care officials have gone blind, deaf and dumb to the problem and refuse to help us in our need. Instead they continue to cling to their covenant with poisons and increase the flow of pollution to our cells. |

Some of the most ignorant and unscientific procedures of all are practiced in dentistry. A lot of it is just complete quackery, and if you don't visit a naturopathic dentist or a natural health oriented dentist, you are undoubtedly subjecting yourself to some very unhealthy side effects simply from being a patient of modern dentistry. |

I've heard over and over again from students in rigorous programs like medicine and dentistry, and from faculty too, that they can't wait for the Sabbath to come because they have a guilt-free time when they don't have to study or do some other obligation. They can just be with their family and friends and with God, and just relax and rejuvenate. When you have that as a pattern in your life 52 times a year, it can make a big difference. Some call it a 'sanctuary in time.' Another part of Adventist beliefs is that the Sabbath reminds us we are creatures and not creators," he said. |

Mercury leads the pack in the potency of its toxicity and in the pervasiveness of it presence in the environment through fish, air, and water, medicine through vaccines, and dentistry with dental amalgams. Some say we are all receiving, just through our air, water, and food about a microgram of mercury a day. Sounds like a little until you calculate that a microgram contains 3,000 trillion atoms with each of them holding the potential to deactivate insulin and the receptor sites crucial to their function. |

One year, a colleague of Baker's at the University of Medicine and dentistry conducted a survey of the surgical residents in the hospital, asking if they were ever corrected for ordering an unneeded radiological study. The young surgeons reported that they were routinely called on the carpet for not getting a study, but never for ordering a test they didn't need. The last thing a resident wants is for the attending to ask, "What did the MRI say?" and for the resident to have to answer, "I didn't order one. |
| At five minutes to one on a Tuesday afternoon, a classroom on the fifth floor of the main hospital of the University of Medicine and dentistry of New Jersey has already filled to capacity with about three dozen doctors and technicians. Everyone in the radiology department is expected to attend
142 grand rounds. The residents and interns sit at desks in the middle of the room. A fidgety bunch, the interns flip through notes pulled from their pockets, while the residents chatter among themselves. |

There have been other mercury poisoning incidents to alert us to its dangers, but industry, and dentistry in particular, continues its use.
Dental "silver" amalgams and seafood, especially fish, are now recognized as the number one and two sources of mercury poisoning. Coal-burning power plants release a large amount of mercury into the environment.2 Mercury poisoning is a global problem, because winds carry it around the world, even to the Arctic. Once in the air, it is inhaled, and starts accumulating in the food chain. |

He is also a Professor of dentistry at the University of Toronto. One of his findings is that people growing up in fluoridated Toronto had bone fluoride levels twice as high as those living in unfluoridated Montreal.
In 1977 the National Academy of Sciences admitted that fluoride intake in fluoridated communities was as high as 3 mg per day, rather than a previously low figure they had given of 1.5 mg per day. The bone retains fluoride and may do so at concentrations as high as 2 mg a day. |

| In the United States, eugenol extracts from clove have often been used in dentistry in conjunction with root canal therapy, temporary fillings, and general gum pain, since eugenol and other components of cloves, including beta-caryophyllene, combine to make clove a mild anesthetic as well as an antibacterial agent. For these beneficial effects, you'll also find clove oil in some over-the-counter sore throat sprays and mouthwashes.
HOW TO SELECT AND STORE
In the case of cloves, it is best to buy whole cloves instead of clove powder. |

Instead, it comes in the form of an anesthetic gas used in dentistry and some forms of human and veterinary surgery. Nitrous oxide also makes whipped cream foamy and has other uses.
Patients who are exposed to nitrous oxide during surgery can suffer from nutrient depletions—as can the physicians, dentists, and veterinarians who inadvertendy inhale this gas over and over again.
Possible Side Effects
The drug's side effects include a megaloblastic anemia and immune system impairment. |

Nor was contemporary dentistry capable of making good the deficiency.12
Two hundred years later, in 1800, the English ate an average of 17 pounds of sugar a year each. This was far more than any other contemporary people, and at the then price of sugar, it meant that many would eat no sugar, while others would eat more than 40 pounds a year. At this latter level, it is safe to call most consumers addicts even if the sugar was still largely unrefined.13

In the period between the end of the Civil War (1865) and the outbreak of World War I (1914), the middle classes continued to expand and to enjoy ever greater material comfort as technology delivered one new wonder after another: indoor plumbing, painless dentistry, the telephone, electric lights, motion pictures, cars, flying machines. The first decade of the twentieth century represented in many ways the summer of industrial civilization and the capitalism that served it. |

Mercury, when it combines with other metals, also forms a special kind of alloy called an amalgam; one such amalgam—of mercury, silver, and tin—is used in dentistry for filling teeth. Organic mercury, compounds of mercury that contain carbon, can be found as methyl-, ethyl- and phenylmercury in nature.
Two forms of mercury, mercury vapor from metal mercury and the organic compounds, methylmercury and ethylmercury, should be of particular concern to readers. |

The whole argument about fluoridating public water supplies brings out, I think, the worst of organized medicine and organized dentistry. It shows the egotistical, power-hungry nature of the American Dental Association and those dentists who follow its dangerous philosophy of demanding that people swallow bioactive substances on command -- "for their own good," of course. |
| I'll hand it to the dentistry community on this one: they sure have come up with a creative way to get rid of toxic waste chemicals without using landfill -- just sell 'em to cities and call it a "public health policy!" Brilliant marketing. Seriously.
Think about it: now instead of dumping toxic waste products into landfills where the chemicals leach into the groundwater supplies and get consumed by people, these toxic chemicals get consumed by people first, then they get flushed into the rivers and streams. |
| All this demonstrates how egomaniacal and power-hungry organized dentistry is today. These people want to force drugs into the bodies of people, and they want to do it through a system of subterfuge that drips these drugs slowly into the water supply. That way people are taking these drugs whether they know it or not, and they don't even need a prescription. |

And if you look at toxic chemicals, you have to start in the realm of dentistry, because in no other profession (save medicine) will you find the use of so many toxic chemicals that are deliberately prescribed to patients or injected into their bodies. We're talking about, of course, mercury fillings and fluoride dripped into the public water supplies.
Dr. Poison Mercury, DDS
When we talk about mercury fillings, you have to keep in mind that mercury is simply one of the most toxic substances you can put into the human body, aside from radioactive substances. |
| More poison from dentists: fluoride
That's not the end of the toxicity in the world of dentistry, we also have dentists pushing for, get this, the dripping of a highly toxic chemical waste product into the water supply... a substance that's scraped off the smokestacks of industrial polluters. They want every person in the community to actually drink this substance.
This material is a toxic waste that's regulated by the EPA. It would be illegal to drip it into a river or a stream, but for some reason, it is perfectly legal to drip it into the public water supply and let people drink it. |
