OMG, that is a total nightmare!!!! But sadly, so often I have heard similar horror stories (my own included). I feel honestly that my health is actually permanently damaged, though I don't attribute all that to dental work (I was infected by a bacteria/virus in 2003 and never recovered), but part of it is dental toxins too and possibly cavitations.

You sound like you are well up on all this and when you have suffered as you have done, it is hard to even know what to say. I too have problems with both amalgams and it seems plastics too. Not sure though what is causing what, so many things are amiss, I'm bewildered.

I am now going for cerec porcelain. They all contain toxins, no such thing as an ideal dental material, but this seems to be the best I have heard so far. It is not quite like other porcelains and it seems toxic people on this forum who have had this replaced are doing ok and improving.

So I maybe getting that. Also, one bonus, it does not tend to leach out its components. I don't really know what else to go for. Every material I bring up, someone will tell me it's bad or this or that. They are only trying ot help of course and I don't blame them, but somewhere along the line, I have to go for something. It's going on and on and it seems there is no ideal material. I'm going for this because of the fact it's not a plastic and it's harder and as I said, less likely to leach.

It's highly expensive and it's sickening what they charge for it. They are getting rich off patients and this should not be so. I know they have to make a living and part of this is paying for their overheads too which would be highly expensive, including equipment etc, but the costs are often absolutely outrageous and not justified most of the time.

They really do not have a good name at all. I remember one guy was so angry with what a dentist did to his teeth (he pulled out the good teeth and left all the bad ones), that he tried to murder this dentist by trying to run him over and I kid you not. Tha'ts how outraged this guy was. He ended up in jail of course. Not sure if he hit the dentist or whether he accidentally got another man instead. But certainly it was over the dental work. and he just lost it.

So yeah, horror stories out there for sure. Also it is frightening when you hear that people have gone to different dentists to get an evaluation on what they need doing and EVERY dentist has said something entirely different and their charges are totally different. One girl did this and in the end she didn't know who to trust. One dentist told her her teeth were fine, didn't need a thing done except a clean. another dentist said she needed 3 cavities filled. Antoehr dentist told her she needed a crown, a root canal and 7 teeth filled and on it went.

So yeah, most people do not trust them. I am sure there are some good ones out there, honest and truly devoted. It's the rotten incompetent ones that spoil it for the rest.

So yeah you're not alone in your justified anger! I hope you can get something rectified, as i hope for others on here as well.
