Suppression of the Dr. Weston Price accomplishments
was unfortunate for the development of medicine
and detrimental to the health of our people.
Mainly responsible was a dispute which took place
among health professionals as to the validity of
the focal infection theory.
Simply stated, the focal infection theory takes
position that infected teeth, tonsils, tonsil tags,
sinuses and such areas of infection contain bacteria
which can travel to another gland, organ or tissue
and set up a new infection site.
Dr. Weston Price was not the only doctor carrying
out research on this subject.
Among the 60 members of the American Dental
Association's Research Institute governing body
were such famous doctors as Charles Mayo, organizer
of the Mayo Clinic; Milton Rosenau, professor of
preventive medicine at Johns Hopkins; William
Welch, professor of pathology;Frank Billings who
gave focal infection its name; Truman Brophy;
Frank Billings who gave focal infection its
name;Truman Brophy,dental school dean; Frank Lillie,
professor of zoology and embryology; and Victor
Vaughan, medical department dean and American
Medical Association president.
As in so many disputes about medical discoveries, even
though the majority of leading doctors believed in the
focal infection theory, these leading scientists
were overidden and silenced.
The fight against the focal infection theory was mainly
carried out by doctors Percy Howe and John Buckley.
Howe based his opposition on a study he conducted
injecting rabbits with the normal placid streptococcus
bacteria secured from the mouth,not bacteria from an
infection site or a root filled tooth.
In his investigation, none of the animals became sick
or died. Bluckley was unable to see how infected teeth
which showed excellent evidence of bone repair after
root canal therapy could possibly still be infected.
Then too, because some who had root filled teeth
removed did not recover, he questoned the validity
of the conclusion that a percentage of patients did
get well due to the removal of a tooth or teeth.
