I am a Dental Hygienist and have noted an increase in most all patients overall PH levels, as seen in higher risks of decay and mouth sores. I moved from Green Bank, WV(a federally regulated ‘Quiet Zone’ and am aware that there are a lot of people getting sicker with varied symptoms who have had prolonged exposure to EMF’s. I would love to conduct research in the dental setting to conclude if there is/is not a correlation as seen in the oral cavity with increase exposure to EMF’s.
