The left bottom end of my tooth, my gums are swollen. There's an ulcer on my tongue.

And guess what? My mum's out there shopping. She blames it on all the raw stuff I've been eating. She won't come back to bring me to the dentist unless I stop this diet. Wow. This is blackmail. Now, I have trouble talking, eating is too painful, gurgling is painful as well.. and she just keeps nagging.

So transparent.

    Your mother may think she is protecting your health.  She is protecting herself from you telling the dentist you are eating raw meat.  He is an authority certified by the establishment that wants you to eat cooked food.  What she is actually doing is playing with your physical life today.  Eating raw animal foods may bring on much more pus than any cooked or other diet.  This can be very dangerous.  Be thankful it is not a top of the mouth tooth, that would be more dangerous.  Tell her you need a dentist now, and that this is not the time for her to play.  If she doesn't listen, you may have to turn her in for denying you needed emergency medical care.  You may have to stop raw then too, but she will be in trouble.  Warn her before you both have problems.  I don't think she wants your health to suffer.

    Or just pay yourself for the dentist.

Root canal is a no no in my world of health.

Root canal is meant to be a bread and butter of dentists.  It only benefits the dentist monetarily but not the patients.

If the tooth is doomed, extract it.

This is my stand on root canal:

"All root canals must be extracted. Root canalled teeth are dead teeth and have no business being stuck in your jaw causing illness. If you want to get well, this must be done now."

You can compromise with your mom and stick with raw fish for the moment.

    That's what I did.  I had a similar problem as Dwight (but had not been root canaled), and I looked for a dentist who would listen to me and help me do what I want with my body.  I had the dentist take my tooth out instead of filling it or canaling its root.  Once the tooth was out, sure, it may have hurt for a day, but it was such a relief to my health and healed up faster than the dentist had imagined it would.  It was wild!

I had a root canal once. I remember the dentist extracted the tooth and replaced it with a fake one.

Also, there's like a pus pocket near the infected area.

    Listen to gs.  Take it out.  It may be difficult, Idk.  I know the gums are tougher with epilepsy medications.  Make sure the dentist is familiar with what medicine you are on.  Depending on your ancestry to, your tooth roots may be deeper, longer and more twisting.

    Put wheatgrass pulp on the area.  It helps with infections, with anyone raw that I have seen, RAFers or vegans.

Nearly all my root canals got infected at the base and I had to extract those teeth or appeal to surgery. I was on a standard junk diet at the time so I think that was also contributing to the problem.

I still think there could be outlook issues if the tooth is in front, because I understand an implant takes a couple of months to be placed.
