Dental Regeneration and Traditional Healing

 

 

After examine my broken tooth carefully the Traditional Healers of Southern Chhattisgarh gave me specific herb for chewing. After five to ten minutes they reexamined it and said as root is still alive hence they have good news for me. They claimed that they can regenerate new tooth. Dental regeneration is still like a dream for the modern researchers. But the meeting I have described earlier was of my college days when as second year student I visited to Bastar forest in year 1992. The Healers informed that it is very complex process and based on many factors it may take one to two years. These Healers were known in the region for their expertise in treatment of Dental troubles. May I meet the patients who have newly generated teeth or tooth? I asked humbly to them. The Healers replied simply that no one is ready to go for this very long process. Most of the patients stop using herbs and herbal combinations even in three months. Why it so? Are herbs used for it are bitter or having allergic reactions? No, this process requires much patience-the Healers replied. In most of the cases they use less internal and more external medicines. During two week stay with them I returned back with lot of information on this aspect. I thought that I have gained much new knowledge enough to surprise my friends as well as professors. After coming back I wrote small Hindi article about the extra ordinary knowledge of our Healers. But no one believed on me. My professors as well as friends made jokes. As result I put this information aside. Later when I started detailed surveys many times I met specialist Healers with similar claims. They enriched my knowledge every time but still I was hesitating to write much on this aspect. I wrote introductory article for the first time in Botanical.com. As result I received many mails from different corners of world. Most of them were researchers eager to get ‘clue’ about technique. They forced me to write all the details. One of them invited me to write book chapter on it and publish it with him as co-author. I refused. From last few years when I read news about on-going research on Dental generation in different parts of world and I got new information from recent surveys finally I decided to document this valuable information through Ecoport. As mentioned earlier the information is vast and requires much time to write in its original form. The purpose of presenting this information is to put the claims of Traditional Healers in published form so that they will remain pioneer in this revolutionary research of Dental Regeneration. Recently I experienced bitter lesson.


In researcher articles at Ecoport I have written a lot on medicinal soil and unique traditional medicinal knowledge about it. Few weeks back there was news in farm magazine in the name of an eminent scientist that he has discovered medicinal properties of soil collected from the base of Bar tree. According to the news this soil is having beneficial effects on not only human beings but also on other plants. These claims are already in Ecoport in reference to the Healers and that eminent scientist has simply presented it in his name. It is not new in the field of modern research. I wrote to the editor with printouts from Ecoport. He agreed to publish the real knowledge of the Healers with sharp remarks in coming issue. His editorial team reminded me that I have also written in Hindi articles about it by giving reference of Ecoport. Before publishing claims of the scientist they searched Google and other search engines but failed to get my articles as Ecoport don’t allow search engines to search its contents. As result the team members published this news without quoting my work. I am sure that Ecoport team is working on this important issue and they know why dissemination of knowledge is very important particularly the knowledge related to traditional healing practices. As Christmas gift I am expecting that as per promise they will make the Ecoport enough strong to resist the disturbances caused by search engines crawlers while searching millions of links and world community will reach to my contributions through search engines.


From the Healers of Bastar region I got long list of herbs used for Dental regeneration. The list is given in this Interactive Table. These herbs are used in specific order. All herbs are used externally alone and in combination with other herbs. In general they use it in combination with Haldi powder as base material. Different combinations are applied externally on ‘Alive tooth’ along with internal remedies. During this regeneration process patients are strictly advised to visit to Healers twice a day. The patients are not informed about the herbs and herbal combinations. All herbs are collected by the Healers by visiting to nearby forests. For many herbs they depend on herb vendors. Most of the herbs collected from surroundings are treated with specific herbal solutions and with the help of this Traditional Allelopathic Knowledge they enrich it with medicinal properties so that they can get desired effects. All external applications are not good in taste. Many applications result in vomiting. In such cases patients are given internal medicines before application. The Healers claim that during this long treatment as extra benefit patients get other teeth free from troubles. These applications are beneficial for mouth. Many combinations used externally are allowed to swallow as these are considered beneficial for patient’s general health.


From these Healers I got information about ten patients treated by their ancestors through these herbs. These patients were of different age and vitality. Most of them were from royal families. They lost teeth during war. How treatment started, how medicines were given up to over 365 days with details of each day and also what happened when their family members saw newly generated teeth for the first time etc. are parts of stories I noted from these Healers. After completion of on-going documentation work on Type II Diabetes I will write special series on this aspect. Meanwhile I will add tables like table 51331 and link it to this article, time to time.

New Comments added on January 8, 2010

 

This knowledge although looks simple but in fact it is very complex. During early surveys I got information about simple uses of herbs mostly single herbs but recent surveys reveled that the expert Healers use complex formulations for this purpose. I tried to document these formulations in original form but I noted that they rarely share complete knowledge. When I tried many formulations on myself I got little success. Then I realized that some important points are missing. I have uploaded these formulations with details in CGBD database. Very few Healers are aware of this unique knowledge and most of them are very old. They are not aware of the importance of this knowledge for the human race. The visits and interactions with them are on.

 

The efforts to make CGBD database online are in progress.
