Hi Phyllis and welcome ! I'm also a 43 year-old female-- but not a mother , just an auntie!


I can relate with your experience, because I also had 8 metal fillings over a year ago in my molars--- and had them replaced two at a time every month or so--til they were all replaced.

My symptoms improved-- I had eye and other muscle twitches, migraines, dizzy spells, candidas, yeast infections, forgetfullness, shyness, stuttering, etc. I had my fillings in since I was a kid, and now I am 43 and have greatly improved after the last filling was out.

I also have a holistic dentist about an hour away from where I live, but she is very expensive- and I make practically minimum wage. So, out of desperation and determination (Gosh Darn it!!) I went to a regular dentist who uses the top of the line equipment and materials. He thought I was a looney toon when I told him why I wanted my fillings replaced, but he still respected my desires, no matter how crazy. He hates mercury fillings for other reasons-- especially that they end up cracking the molars years ahead in your life. He also hates the staining as he is a reconstructive dentist as well and prides his work-- so he will not order amalgam for those reasons.

So when he teased me when I was getting my first two metal fillings out on my birthday- of all days. He joked , "Now i know you are crazy because you went to a dentist on your BIRTHDAY to get fillings drilled out! lol!

On my first visit, I had to sign a wiaver form that I wouldnt give him any problems. I did so, and made sure to compliment him where any compliments were due-- so we ended up getting along .

He did a great job- and it was quick. They used high speed suction -and he still let me use a rubber dam as well-- after i asked him, "just humor me, okay?"

I supplemented and took Algin before and after-- as well as activated charcoal. I took lots of vitamin C with the bioflavonoids days before too and right after. After the last metal filling was out months later- I then added the chlorella to the chelating list as well. Three months later I also added Alpha Lipoic Acid.

In my case, having the metal fillings replaced two at a time at least every other month was easier on my body to cope between removals-- as well as easier on my budget. My insurance wouldn't pay for the porcelain/composite material- but it does not surprise me that my insurance WOULD pay 100% if I got more amalgam! I ended up paying from $85.00 to $185.00 for each pair of fillings to be replaced-- depending on how much amalgam they had to drill out.

There was some tooth sensitivity I felt after replacements, so I was happy I was still able to chew on the other side of my mouth while the other side healed. The sensitivity only lasted no more than a month.

I used a dental Chelat mouthwash to rinse my mouth out instead of the mouthwash they provided in the dental office. It binds nano-particles of old filings released from the drilling and you spit it out in the dental rinse sink in the dentist office instead of using their flouride rinse.

Also- you can use Dental Chelat mouthwash even now before you get your fillings out- and it will help your mouth from the mercury vapor being emitted right now.

Anyways, It took me from May to September to have all Eight fillings replaced, and the composite/porcelain fillings are still holding strong in my mouth - and I have no sensitivity -- my gums have even improved! Look up, you will have yours replaced also :-)
