He said that I probably don't have any mercury left in those fillings that registered negative. I'm concerned that the dentist made this statement. Mercury does not simply "go away" from a filling. For example, here is a video from a 25-year old amalgam: http://iaomt.com/smokingtooth.cfmI'm not sure what to say here but I lose confidence in a dentist that believes that mercury can be "gone" after a period of time. The voltages in fillings are caused by what's called the Galvanic action of different metals. It does not require that mercury be present and I don't know why he would think that a negative voltage would indicate no mercury. Is that what this test is all about ? Can it guage how much mercury there is in the filling ? I guess that I was hoping that it would read horribly high amounts so that I can justify spending all this money. No. I don't believe that the amount of mercury remaining in a filling can be determined by surface voltage readings. I have all the classic symptoms of mercury poisoning and probably some more. I have had 4 shots of Rhogam vaccine (for Rh- women) which apparently is very high in mercury. I would see this thread; Rhogam I guess my main question is - just how important is that electro current thing. Prior to yesterday I thought that it's only purpose was to help the dentist decide which quadrant to work on first. ?????? Yes, you're exactly right. That is the only purpose of it, at least as far as I know. I am not sure where your dentist is gettings these ideas but it causes me to question his/her competence.
