The inlay is “Cerec"
Replacement white fillings are Voco “Grandio”
When I was biocompatible tested, I tested negative to about 23 products out of 50 tests, so there was still plenty for the dentist to choose from.
I was in the chair for 3 hours, the majority of the time was for the inlay.

Yes, is very satisfying that they are biocompatible for me, especially after all the research, reading and testing I have done.
It now looks like a bridge I had replaced 5 months ago is NOT biocompatible and will also need replacing, but that’s for later, not to mention another £700 later <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Re “I wonder if those symptoms are to do with the short term exposure during removal, or whether it's some kind of shock to the body to lose a dose another source of ongoing mercury or both”
– Me, I think is my body reacting to the shock of having the mercury removed from the whole quadrant. When I had the other tooth hacked out with no protection there was still two amalgams either side in that quadrant. My body just kept on doing what it could, which was just maintaining me as best it could, given all the toxins in me. That first night this week felt like shellshock and now I have all these strange symptoms happening, one on top of the other, bam bam bam. I currently have a vice like headache, pretty bad lower back pain and just had a very minor wave of spacedout-ness flowing over me, and you know what…overall I feel lively and in excellent spirits and looking forward to a cool weekend.

So yeah I think my body is breathing a sigh of relief and healing. (re-reading this last sentence again ……no…. maybe its just wishful thinking….but nothing wrong with the Placebo effect, and in any case time will tell.)

At some point all these toxins in me are gonna have to give up and allow my body to recover. I have tried, and am doing, so many things to get well…it has to happen at some point. My fingers and toes are crossed that the amalgams are the root cause.
