Andrea, I appreciate this dentist specialises in that area, but is he biologic? Does he take into account the toxic issues of the amalgams and the nickel etc?

regular dentists do not really take any of that seriously. Though he maybe right in regards to the other problems, i'm concerned he may not realise you are very toxic/sensitive and he may be adding a load to your already burdened system and not realise he's doing this.

This is very difficult on you. Not knowing what to do or what to do first or when. I wonder if you can get onboard a reputable biologic dentist to help out here? Or at laest in regards to amalgam replacement maybe, and you could tell him about the other dentist's recommendation of having braces to correct some structual problems in your mouth that maybe contributing to some health issues also.

Whatever you do, definitely take care of the candida in the meantime. This may help lift you at the very least while you decide the other things. I know it's all very upsetting and stressful. I've never seen so many people go through so much as I have on this forum (or other toxic forums). It's just mindblowing. It's like one trial after another and you wonder how people manage to keep going.
