The dentist that did my cut and lift extractions doesn't discuss mercury problems very much either.

but I didn't go to him for amalgam replacement, I went to him for extractions. And he did a perfect job with that. He was real meticulous, wore these little telescope glasses, a real geek, i like him, an old guy, my age plus a few years. heh.

The dental assistant was real nice too there. she discussed my mercury concerns because they had to cut the filling slightly to lift the tooth... she gave me one of their face masks to cover my nose with and I basically held my breath the rest of the way...

no problems afterward at all. i think I did take some DMSA that day and the few days after. i did not use antibiotics after or painkillers.

painkillers slow your kidneys down a lot, do not take any offers of pain killers if you have a mercury problem.

Actually, that's not correct, I forgot, I'm sorry.. he does do amalgam replacement the dental assistant showed me hers that he did. But he's just a regular dentists, no hal huggins protocol nothing like that, just real good hands and real careful... an ace with that high speed dremel drill. the guy never spilled a drop of anything and moved very quickly.

Get an older dentist with a good reputation, is my best advice. they've seen it all and are less likely to lie to make a few bucks. Their mortgages are already paid.

If you're in Jacksonville, there is a dentist in Tampa or clearwater that does amalgam replacemnt, the guy that Russ went to. You can courtyard inn it a night.

But you don't need an amalgam removal pro guy to do extractions.
