Guest guest Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 I have read Cutler's book and decided to replace my 13 amalgams, but composites have xenoestrogenic plastics like bishenol-A (and also Aluminum Oxide). This has me very concerned and I am going crazy trying to decide if I should get composites. After researching xenoestrogens they seem horrific, with plenty of scientists claiming them to be harmful. bisphenol-A affects the enodrine system in very small amounts and accumulates in the body, cause breast/prostate cancer and damage hormone activity. Xenoestrogens/composites seems similar to where mercury amalgams were a few decades ago - the ADA/dentists saying it is perfectly safe, and unbiased scientists saying it is not. Is a composite backlash coming soon, the way amalgams were exposed? Gold and porcelain fillings have metals and are probably out of my league financially. Which is the least evil - mercury in amalgams, xenoestrogens in composites, aluminum in porcelain, or mixed metals in gold? Is my concern unfounded? Have my 13 mercury fillings made me paranoid?

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2004 Report Share Posted December 18, 2004 Is there someone who can answer this persons question about which is the lesser of the evils concerning the fillings? I recently decided, after also researching - and finding out the I cannot afford 800 dollars per porcelain tooth, and decided that perhaps the plastic was the lesser of two evils and had 5 mercury fillings taken out and replaced with the plastic. I did not know that the plastic had xenoestrogens. I also had a scare recently that I had breast cancer (they did not find it in the biopsy, but I did have a positive blood elevation of antimalignans, therefore I may still have it somewhere that they haven't checked). I am now afraid for my life. If there is anyone who knows - which is worse - mercury fillings or the composite? please respond.......... Also, would the xenoestrogens be combated with progesterone cream? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 Go to HalHuggins.com for literature on fillings. My husband had his mercury removed by a dentist recommended by the Hal Huggins organization (there are very few in the country). As we understood it, a filling with a negative charge (amalgams, mercury) is highly toxic. He was tested for tolerance to many types of dental material that would replace the mercury and the material that maintains a positive charge is used. Everyone tolerates different material so everyone's results to this type of test would be different and different dental material is used for different people. If the dentist tells you the exact composite in your teeth you can go to a naturpath and be tested for tolerance for about $50.00 If you don't know what is in your mouth and you are worried about cancer or testing positive for a cancer marker you should remove the teeth completely and have partials made. It is difficult to combat a toxin that seeps into your system constantly. Get yourself tested before the partials are made.
