I recently had a friend on facebook share this website
http://www.realfarmacy.com/97-of-ter...tal-procedure/
it suggests there's a causal relationship between root canals and cancer. Right off the bat, given the website name, realfarmacy, i was skeptical. I tried to check their sources and did a few searches on google and they all seem to come back to one place, Dr. Mercola
http://articles.mercola.com/sites/ar...led-teeth.aspx
The sources are listed on the bottom of the page. There was only 1 source that explicitly mentioned cancer but it was blocked by our corporate firewall and flagged malicious. The other sources had to do with raw food diets and bacteria in a person's mouth.
I went to pubmed and did a search there for root canal cancer but I didn't see anything relevant (I am a computer programmer so take that with a pinch of salt)
Is there any evidence to support this claim outside of what Mercola says?
Thanks,
Routaran
