Good going Patman! It's good to hear you've not had any setbacks in your health since the removals.

Do you know what was used in your teeth? It seems odd that the dentist would use lining for two teeth, but not lining for the other two teeth....which makes me wonder if different dental materials have been used....Can you ask him/her about this?

Usually they will use a bonding agent, a liner and the composite.

I'm not sure what you mean about "would not having liners increase mercury exposure".....Whether you have a lining agent or not, it will not increase or decrease mercury exposure. It's another dental material used as a base for the white restorative materials (composites) you've gotten in place of amalgam. As long as the amalgam was removed thoroughly, the tap of mercury in your mouth as effectively been removed (turned off).

Though remaining mercury following amalgam removal still has to be removed from the tissues/organs/brain. So after all amalgam is removed, one should begin to chelate the remaining stored mercury out of their body. It would be great if amalgam removal alone gave the cure! It's just a pity that mercury is an accumulative toxin that builds up and gets stored in the organs/brain and continues to poison a person until it's removed.

Again, I recommend the Cutler protocol for the job!
