RE: dental cleanups

I'm kinda in the same boat. My mom brought a newspaper story over, detailing

one woman paid $15,000 to have her amalgams removed and changed to resin. Large

fillings may have weakened teeth to the point they can't take another assault.

Pulling the teeth then you are at risk of bacteria in the cavitations. I had my

widom teeth out 30 yrs ago, but I think they healed over nicely and the bone

built back up to fill the void. My small fillings could be replaced under my

insurance if they crack or fail, but the dentist said the insurance only pays

for a replacement with amalgam but nothing else. Worse yet, if the filling is

replaced with anything but amalgam, they would charge me also for the removal

and disposal of the old one. No pro-rate.

, you should check with your insurance because mine did pay

to have my old amalgams removed--they just didnt cover the amount as

well as if I had used amalgams as replacement materials. Talk about

a SCAM!!! I was lucky that my insurance covered a nice amount

however because replacing all my amalgams was very expensive (but

worth it!).

I would simply advise each person considering it to check with their

insurance. Dont just assume the procedure wont be covered. And

definitely dont take advice from a dentist! (no offense Jerry).

Also, I had my blood tested to check for allergies to the dental

composite materials used in my new fillings. I highly recommend

this. I went to a Huggins dentist recently and she said she helped

cure a woman with MS just by replacing amalgams with composites

tested for compatability.

Unfortunately my insurance is underwritten by Medi-Cal which has rules on

molars. They will not pay for resin unless it is visible front teeth. The book

says they will only pay for amalgams. this is why I told the dentist I WILL PAY

FOR IT. Just PLEASE dont use amalgam. This is why I am so mad he drilled out

my old filling then announced he was proceeding with amalgam because it was too

big and resin would not hold up. I told him I don't eat hard foods or chew ice.

Didn't matter to him. At that point there would have been no time to find a

decent dentist to fill it the right way, before the novacaine wore off.

We are very lucky because Dr. Jerome from the Cure for All Diseases is only

102 miles away from our home. I had half of my mouth done by a dentist in

Cincinnati who claims to be " mercury free " but is not very good at what he

does. He did not use a dam and did not give me a charcoal pill. I kept

spitting out pieces of mercury. I know I probably swallowed quite a bit of

it. He also left small bits of amalgam on my teeth. I asked him about it

and he said it would be inside the filling and would not leak. He was very

rough. I was swollen and lightly bruised and almost everything he did had to

be redone. One of my teeth cracked so bad that he had to put a cap on it.

That cost a small fortune and now the cap is chipped. I was having this

done right before I learned of Dr. . So I didn't know any better.

He also put metal back in my mouth as it showed up on x-ray (plastic

doesn't.) After the pain and bad experience I waited a couple years to

finish my dental cleanup.

If I had known how good Dr. Jerome is, I would have done it sooner. He is

amazingly gentle and really fast. (The worst part to me is feeling like you

are choking.) He is even gentle when it comes to numbing you. He does it

real slow and massages it into you so it doesn't hurt at all. He wasn't all

that terrible when it came to cost either. He charged what any dentist

charges not the 15,000 listed below. He did my work in 2004 and I have had

no problem with it at all. If you can go to Columbus, Indiana for your

dental work you will be glad you did. I am going to buy his book the Tooth

Truth one day but I am almost afraid of what it will say. I have two root

canals in my front teeth. He doesn't push anything on you; he just says

when I'm ready to let him know.

Ok, I just read the dental clean-up from

http://www..net/info/dental.htm So I have a long way to go and

don't think I will be doing it anytime soon. I guess if I get sick I will.

Right now I just wanted to get the mercury vapor away from my son. This is

major and I am impressed with anyone who goes through with it. It will take

me some time to become that brave. I'm guessing that everything Dr.

wrote in her previous books is no longer useable. For future reference, is

there a dentist or oral surgeon who does exactly what she says to do? I

really don't know if Dr. Jerome does all of it or not.
