Hi there,

as I understand it Dr El-Essawy doesn't use diamondlite however there is biocompaability testing beforehand to see whether any material should not be used for you. I am not sure whether diamondlite is that much safer than other non-mercury materials.

I had my amalgams removed by 2 well known holistic dentists, one based in manchester and 1 based in london. I got worse after the final removal. I learnt from dr el-essawy that, even though i had no metal in my mouth, mercury VAPOUR was in the dentinal tublues of my teeth and still poisoning me. I had all of this removed (2 months ago) and feel so much better. I am continuing to see large improvements and, generally, patients do up to 1 year post removal.

Once my recovery is complete I am hoping to publish my story on tne internet and will keep you informed.

There is so much misinformation out there on mercury I would ask you to check out all the possible information and make your mind up. From my own personal experience amalgam removal is largely misundertsood as many dentists do not take into account the vapour consideration.

Dr el-Essawy's website has some good testimonials on it that I found useful in making my decision.

I hope this helps
