Having amalgams removed will release mercury from them and some will be absorbed into your body.I developed severe candida infections in my mouth a few weeks after having 7 amalgams removed. I still have many amalgams left. I suggest that you start taking olive leaf extract and grapefruit seed extract a few weeks before getting the amalgams removed, and keep taking it for many weeks after. I didn't start taking these until well after the infections became severe. I think you will be okay using a regular dentist if he tries to remove the amalgams in large chunks, uses a water cooled drill to keep the temperature of the amalgams low while drilling into them, and has his assistant use powerful suction in your mouth right near where he is drilling to capture the mercury vapor. Rinse you mouth very carefully after driling. Also try to spend as little time as possible in the dental office. Also change your clothes and shower soon after the dental work is done to get yourself away from any traces of mercury vapor that may be on you.

Avoid eating fish like tuna of swordfish that has plenty of mercury in it. Smaller fresh water fish like salmon, herring, or sardines has much less mercury, but these should still be eaten in moderation.
