im trying to start a new thread but cant seem to find how so il post here.It seems people are worrying about the cost of going to mercury free dentists or ill affects of exposure during mercury removal,well i found the perfect alternative-just have the teeth pulled whole with no damage to the fillng! Not really an option for front teeth but fine for molars.Heres my story.........Ihad a botched root fill where the training dental nurse was too slow mixing the amalgam resulting in the dentist starting again coz the amalgam was not taking to the tooth very well.The dentist had to mix the amalgam herself and start again -over exposure even by BDA standards. That was three months before my first "multiple sclerosis" attack.I made no connection because i never knew that mercury was in this "silver" filling. I am educated enough to know mercury has no place anywhere near the human body. i became very ill over the year and thought i was doomed to a life of steroids.Pins and needles and tingling on my tongue made me notice a cracked filling and while waiting to visit the dentist i looked up root-fillings on the net because i like biology and wanted to see whats inside a tooth.I was amazed at the google results eg root canal cover-up and amalgam is everywhere.Even with all i read i could not be sure it was the cause of my problems and any website with a link to books or detox has to have a biased opinion which is no good to me.I dont see why the education books about mercury are not sold at cost-oh yes i do-greed!! It doesnt help the anti-amalgam campaign that money is being made from people in this way.
I told my NHS dentist and asked her to swap mercury for white fillings.She said there would not be enough tooth left to fill after taking the amalgams out. i ASKED HER TO PULL THE TEETH but she would not because they would fall apart so she refered me to a private surgical extraction clinic who do extractions on nhs.One week later i had FOUR molars extracted in one sitting with the dentist taking the fillings out whole and slitting the gums to get the rest of the teeth out (lots of stiches) so i had NO EXPOSURE TO MERCURY VAPOR. Having four molars out is a walk in park and can say a stubbed toe would have been more grief.Hmmm thats funny-the multiple sclerosis seems to have gone,and ibs which i had for years has gone too.Without changing my diet i piled wieght back on-all muscle coz thats my natural athletic muscular body type that was robbed from me by the "ibs" Even the bda admit that there is vapor exposure till amalgams set so i would not recemend the exposure that must be suffered when amalgams are removed.Lose the teeth if you can, i had four molars out and i allready lost two years ago so im down six molars now and it makes no difference to me.I might cut certain foods up more but thats no hardship,im never the last to finish dinner and im not in a wheelchair whuch i was for a while.Life is good and i have no sugar in my diet so the teeth i have will stay with me for good.If you have large fillings,ask your nhs dentist to refere you for extraction and go private.I was on income and disability so it was free for me but extractions are cheapish anyway. I saw the DIRECTOR GENERAL OF BRITISH DENTAL ASSC. live on tv wiggling like a politician because the lady sat next to him had a lifetime of clinical depression reversed after mercury removal.He said "some people" might" be sensitve to mercury but you can have a test done to check and we dont put mercury in children anymore"???????????????????? Oh well if that doesnt stink of liability i dont know what does. good luck to all with amalgam poisoning and dont go broke paying a premium for hollistic coz you will be getting the same result as me-full health, i got away with countless hours of"specialst procedure mercury removal" and some of you could do as well"
