Case: Nick, age 58, hearing loss in one ear.<br />
Nick, an airline pilot, had lost the hearing in his left ear. His<br />
physical was coming up, and failing it would cause him <strong>to</strong> be<br />
grounded two years before retirement. Taking a desk job would<br />
mean a decrease in his retirement pay. A patient of Dr. S<strong>to</strong>ne,<br />
Nick consulted him about his hearing. Dr. S<strong>to</strong>ne advised him <strong>to</strong><br />
see an oral surgeon for removal of infection in his upper left<br />
wisdom <strong>to</strong>oth area (#16). His hearing returned immediately<br />
after the oral surgeon injected the anesthetic for surgery and<br />
cleaned that area, however that night his hearing left again.<br />
Nick called my office asking if I could help him as he was very<br />
desperate <strong>to</strong> pass his physical. The next morning I called <strong>to</strong> tell<br />
him a 10:00 am cancellation was available, and he said he would<br />
take the appointment.<br />
Refer <strong>to</strong> the Teeth and Body Energy chart <strong>to</strong> see how upper<br />
wisdom teeth are associated with ear problems. In checking him<br />
with the CEDS, I found an area directly behind the upper left<br />
second molar that indicated possible pathology related <strong>to</strong> his<br />
hearing loss. I completed the surgery and rechecked the<br />
surgical site with CEDS, obtaining a good reading. Only after a<br />
return of his hearing would we know that the operation was<br />
successful. Nick called me that night; his hearing had returned!<br />
He was extremely happy that he would retire with full pay.<br />
Case: Doug Cook, the author of this book, age 56, heart<br />
and jaw relationship<br />
I use a heart moni<strong>to</strong>r when I run, and set the high end heart<br />
rate at 145 beats per minute. Should the rate go higher, an<br />
alarm would go off telling me <strong>to</strong> slow down. One morning, after<br />
running 1 ½ miles, the alarm went off. The moni<strong>to</strong>r showed<br />
220 beats per minute. Immediately I started walking, and the<br />
heart slowed <strong>to</strong> its normal beat.<br />
Good fortune was with me while attending a seminar <strong>by</strong> Dr.<br />
Andrew Landerman, D.D.S. I became aware of the relationship<br />
