Hi Dudley welcome, i really thought all mercury free dentists were the same and i chose a terrible one,not only was i not protected but they removed some teeth improperly and replaced an amalgam with white composite which was a root canal, they said it was safe, not only that but the root canal was only half done many years ago. i no longer visit the dentist now, i try to keep the teeth i have left healthy by oil pulling very gently in the mornings, brushing with tooth soap, and using a water jet between brushings using hydrogen peroxide, this seems to be helping my receeding gums.
It is alot to take in all of this, diet is important, you need to keep the liver clean so you can detox and the anti candida diet is also a liver cleansing diet,i take milk thistle 3x a day along with numerous other supplemnts.
i see you from the UK,i live near Heathow Airport. Dawn
