547: To Root Canal or Not to Root Canal: Jared’s Painful Health Lesson

547: To Root Canal or Not to Root Canal: Jared’s Painful Health Lesson

July 18, 2025 By Jared St. Clair

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared shares a deeply personal story that led him to reluctantly request an antibiotic for the first time ever. After undergoing the removal of two long-standing root canals, Jared faced unexpected complications—including intense pain, possible systemic infection, and a difficult decision about antibiotics. He unpacks the root causes (pun intended) of his health issues and explores how dead teeth and lingering oral infections may contribute to chronic inflammation, autoimmune reactions, and even joint pain. Jared also breaks down the stark contrast between conventional and biological dentistry, offering insights into why root canals could be impacting more than just your mouth. If you’ve ever had a root canal—or are considering one—this is a must-listen.
