Re: First trip to the pediatric dentist (mercury free)

[Guest guest]

Hi When it is time to take our kidlets to the doctor, it is so important to find one that runs an entirely mercury free practice. Even if they do not put merucy in your kid, there is much documentation that the offices themselves test very high for mercury vapor. Also, I know of several people who were promised porecelain or composite filings only to have the child walk out with silver in his mouth. I am embarassed to say that we had out first trip to the dentist -- mercury free pediatric dentist at 5.5. The report we got back was no cavities and awesome oral health. Before he turned 5, I really just could not bare the thought of it. He did great today with no signs (other than voice regulation) of ASD. One of the hardest decisions we made was to never use flouride. I do not know how others feel. We use spry toothpaste and spry

gum. Amazing, it does not taste yucky. Any way, he has no cavities and "awesome oral health." I called my mercury free dentist and he attibutes it to the strong anti-oxidants and bioflavinoids has been on for almost 3 years. The dentist wanted to do a flouride treatment and my husband told her that he was allergic to flouride. I would have tried to argue. She said okay and asked if she could use a flouride free, hypoallergenic tooth cleaner and we consented == I am still nervous and want to call back for a list of ingredients. Any way, just wanted to share. The best part was that we anwered no on the questionaire to the ASD question (she specializes in treating children on the spectrum and receives a lot of referrals from TACA in Southern Calif). Under allergies, we wrote mercury, bleach, pesticides, neurotoxins and flouride. The dentist asked how we knew he was allergic to mercury and we told her that he had a loss of skills after 3 mercury injections at 9 months. She asked if that is why we changed peds to Dr. Bob and we said yes. She said, well is very well behaved and in good health and never even questioned our "NO" response under does your child have ADD/ADHD/autism/sensory intregration disorder? She allowed us to be present for the entire process -- I no longer have a lot of faith in the honesty of the medical profession. Been there -- done that. So maybe you do not need flouride to have good oral health. Vera

We have never used flouride on my children - no cavities - and a lot of times we use a "dry" toothbrush to brush their teeth because they prefer it - other times we use spry toothpaste. We also don't drink water with flouride. Vera wrote: Hi When it is time to take our kidlets to the doctor, it is so important to find one that runs an entirely mercury free practice.

Vera, what is your take on sealants? My son's dentist found grooves

in my son's premolars and recommended it. I said I'd think about it.

I think it would be dumb to put more chemicals into our kids.

Also my son's teeth are terribly uneven on the lower jaw, the

dentist recommended a consult with the braces person. He said they

might be able to do something now that would make the braces wearing

period easier when they are 11 or 12. Does anyone have any thoughts

on this? Do I just hold off, I don't want to unnecessarily

traumatize the child if holding off is the thing to do?

I just bought some Spry gum yesterday, where do you buy the Spry

toothpaste from?

Thanks.

Flouride has been linked to very high cancer rates in children, especially little boys. At one of the DANs, they recommended we stop using flouride toothpaste and have the house water filtered.

fluoride is a secondary preventative

intervention

there are studies that show with early

intervention..toothbrushing & proper diet

taht the decay rates are atually lower

fluoride is nasty , look online

if you have thyroid problems it aggravates it

ask the hygienist to tell show do

brushing instructions. MOST people dont brush

properly, most don't floss, 85% of the population has

gum disease...our medical culture treats symptoms rather than

preventi them.

take a tissue, wrap it around your finger & rub a front tooth

now run your tongue over that tooth & adjacent ones.

smooth? that means you rubbed off all the plaque ( bacteria)

ther are red dyes to use to check your skill. I use them

just a few times a year because dyes are stinky too
