And afterwords supplemented myself. If you are willing to put just a bit of work into it, you should be able to have a very good situation. Rubber dam and oxygen are both great. You can read about the other kinds of precautions people use and/or recommend. The dentist I went to used a special suction (with an assistant standing there suctioning the whole time). I think rubber dam and oxygen will be good though.... And yes, whatever supplements you decide on--- doesn't matter if you buy them yourself or get them from the dentist. The only difference would be if you think you want IV of supplements (some do vitamin C IV....) But I'm sure you can sort that out just fine if you put some time, reading and consideration into it.

And afterwords supplemented myself. If your dentist doesn't use special precautions in his office, would he have the right kind of oxygen mask? Does it completely cover your nose with a tight seal? You can get on the Bioprobe.com website to see the type of high suction device dentists can place in your mouth. It is supposed to suck up most of the mercury vapor. Does your dentist use this device? What about ventilation? Bernard Windham, president of DAMS, Dental Amalgam Mercury Syndrome, states that most dentist's offices are not ventilated properly, so even if you wore the mask, what about your breathing the vapors after you take the mask off? What about your health working there every day and breathing other people's mercury vapor if his office is not properly ventilated? Being exposed to mercury in your workplace environment would make you more likely to suffer adverse affects of mercury removal since you may have more of a body load of mercury already. What about replacing your fillings with biocompatible dental fillings? Will the replacement material be compatible with your body? Biological dentists use biocompatible testing from companies like Clifford Research and Consulting. You could get the dentist to order the testing kit for you and you could send you blood serum to Colorado. From people that I have spoken to that have gone to Sukel, he is very good but also very expensive. There are other IAOMT dentists in IL that you could find on the IAOMT website at www.iaomt.org. Sukel is also recommended by DAMS. If your fillings are large, you may require crowns. Will your dentist drill out all the mercury filling, or will he leave some in? Placing a crown with materials like gold or nickel over mercury fillings will cause oral galvanism, which can also cause you to be poisoned. Never place gold in the mouth with existing mercury fillings. Do you have any root canals? There is mercury in the root canals, and to be mercury free you need to take out the root canals also. Then the area needs to be cleaned. Dentists who do cavitational surgery know how to clean it. Before having the work done I would recommend that you order an info packet from DAMS at 1-800-311-6265. You will learn things that you did not learn when you went to dental assisting/hygienist school. I would be afraid to have mercury fillings removed if the dentists does not meet all the qualifications: 1) Must be a mercury free dentist himself and understand how dangerous mercury is. Mercury free does not mean biological dentist. Mercury free dentists expose patients to mercury vapor all the time. Even some biological dentist are not as safe as others. You can read the IAOMT protocol for safe removal of mercury fillings on my website. But beware: IAOMT dentists are NOT REQUIRED to follow the protocol. 2) Must be a member of a group similiar to the IAOMT that trains the dentist in the safe removal protocol of mercury removal. The dentist must have studied the protocols and done the extra curriculum hours in continuing education. 3) He must be experienced (several years) in the safe removal of mercury fillings using a safe protocol. It is not worth it to take chances. It will cost you even more if you get poisoned. I am still getting mercury out of my brain from breathing mercury vapor in 2001, and it is no fun. You can read Bernard Windham's article on my website about exposure of mercury to dental personnel. If you want to contact me offlist I can give you the cities in IL that have IAOMT dentists, and DAMS coordinators for your state.

Guest guest Posted April 24, 2004 Report Share Posted April 24, 2004 - And _section_ the filling. Don't forget that. Section it and take it out in pieces. If you grind it out you'll get _much_ more exposure. If you've got a laser to section it, rather than a drill, all the better. Then chelate via Andy's protocol after the work is done. (No ALA until the body burden of mercury has decreased!) Supplements can be done any time; but others are more expert at that than I! Good luck to you, Dave.
