Faith Healer Specializes in Dentistry
Dental Faith Healers… Who Knew?
Rev. Steve Jones is a dental faith healer. The evangelical West Virginian has been praying for people’s teeth for 20 years. One of his alleged specialties is the “gold fillings” phenomenon, where Jones turns amalgam fillings into gold. (If you have observed this phenomena and have any before and after photos…PLEASE send them to us for inclusion in our next newsletter!) He also claims he’s seen teeth straighten themselves and cracked teeth heal.
He’s got worshippers not only across the US but also in Asia and the UK. Some have reported finding crucifix-shaped precious metals in their mouths. During worship, Rev. Jones prays for people’s teeth and touches their shoulders or jaws. Some report instant numbness or reduced pain, while other dental miracles take days or weeks to come to fruition.
“It’s two years since we’ve known him; we’ve never gone to the dentist since,” said one of his followers, a Sarasota woman who believes that Jones’ prayers have transformed five of her filings to gold or silver. “The Bible says, ‘If you believe, you will receive.’” (It’s worth noting that the Bible actually says “Ask, and you shall receive.”)

Well… this is just awesome. I wish it could work on all of us and put every dentist out of business. Sad… I am sure it don’t work for us all… or at least not all the time. I would not critize. If I was a dentist, I would think it was wonderful that some people can have miracles happen. Wish they were more often. Guess it is worth a painless try…hum? I do a lot of things that doctors HATE…because I need them less and less. The honest doctor that I do go to.. is thrilled that I don’t need him as much. More power to Rev. Jones… wish it worked for us all.
