Hello
I suffer from chronic severe OCD plus a deep depression for 6 years now because of too much stress I hold in a period of time and also I'm suspected to have mercury poisoning(don't know for sure) which might had played its negative role in that period.
I just have One extended surface amalgam filling now for about 11 years(it is not a root canal) and in the Third World country wich I live in there is no mercury-free dentist who is trained to remove amalgam safely and I don't think I could travel to europe to do this at least by now because of my disabling conditions(OCD-MDD ...) So there is no choice for me except extracting the whole tooth to get rid of it and also preventing unsafe removal(drilling it all out without other precautions).
Do you think does it worth it?( I think it does) and Is it safe if a conventional dentist extract it while there is a risk of breaking the amalgamed tooth instead of extracting it whole?
Thank you very much.
