Guest guest Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 I have not had the tooth since 2006 and it does not bother me to have it gone. I am going to leave well enough alone Thanks for the tip though as I have a friend dealing with an infection in her jaw due to implants and just had them removed and a new bone graft done.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 Hi A couple questions please: a) will Iodoral help detox mercury, if it's in my body? my hair mineral test says I do not have high levels of mercury, but is this accurate or could it be that the mercury is stored in my body? end of 2002, i had 3 big amalgams removed. Being in the UK, the dentist took very little precautions - i probably swallowed bits of the filling. I got the usual tale about it being harmless etc. thanks Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 New development, allegedly, in biodentistry. Here's the story. When you remove mercury amalgams, a major groundswell of mercury deposits in the organs throughout the body is released. According to this idea which is claimed to be an advanced one, taught at the state of the art seminars, there is such a release of long stored mercury that there is no getting around a major increase, which should be combated with very heavy vitamin C, like a 15 gram C infusion, and other antioxidants. So, not to worry about the mercury with which your palate was peppered, but rather the unavoidably high general mercury levels following amalgam removal, which takes time to detox. I use the curezone version of cilantro/chlorella mercury (lead, aluminum, etc.) detox. Detoxing too much at once causes problems, I have been informed, and this method shakes free the metals from wherever they are hiding and removes them by phases, always the best way to make major shifts in body chemistry. I think the proof is in the pudding. That's the story. Check your actual measurements. The story is plausible at this point. I have no idea what the truth really is. This is what I have gone with at this time. Hope this does no harm, Jake > > Hi > > A couple questions please: > > a) will Iodoral help detox mercury, if it's in my body? > my hair mineral test says I do not have high levels of mercury, but is this accurate or could it be that the mercury is stored in my body? end of 2002, i had 3 big amalgams removed.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 I would like to comment on this if no-one minds. I was a dental nurse working in a hospital in the 80's and exposed to mercury vapour in my job for 5 years. On top of this I had 8 amalgam fillings. Then in 1990 I had a course of 3 Hep B vaccines also contaning mercury. In the same year I had my third baby and was in a car crash and have had chronic fatigue ever since. I was 28. I firmly believe that mercury damaged my thyroid/pituitary causing me hypo/t which has never been properly diagnosed. I have MCS and ES. The vaccine was the last straw when my immune system was weak. Glaxo even admitted over the phone to my GP that the vaccine could have caused hypersensitivity to mercury. I would urge everyone to be very cautious with mercury, the dangers of which are grossly underestimated. I learnt the hard way. Having said all that,removal of any amalgam should always be done under correct protocol. It also crosses the placenta in pregnant women. Adrienne. > > No, I think it's better to shelve the whole thing rather than risk a huge health risk. If I ever do have a serious health issue, I'll be asking for your dentist's name! > > Anytime I need a filling replaced, I make sure my dentist doesn't use amalgam and I always get the feeling that he's humoring me. I asked him why there were all these regulations as to how he can handle and dispose of the material and yet it's supposed to turn benign in the mouth where it's in a constant environment of heat and humidity. He deflected the question and his assistant said that she wouldn't let her ten year old have amalgam fillings if they weren't safe.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 Here's a link: http://curezone.com/blogs/fm.asp?i=969381 Here's the way that is said to work: the cilantro does apparently remarkably ferret out the mercury (and other metals and toxins) from their deep deposits throughout the body and its organ systems. Then, the chlorella bonds with it in the intestine and escorts it the rest of the way out. This has always been a little suspect for me, in that this was discovered when a Korean study accidentally found high levels of mercury in fecal tests, and studied the foods eaten, tracking this to Miso soup, having a lot of cilantro in it, eaten by quite a few in the study. So, why am I suspicious? Well, they were testing the feces. Where's it going to go from there, but out of the body? But, apparently, some of it returns to the intestinal walls, or hangs around and is reabsorbed, and so forth. But, when chlorella is taken, it bonds to the mercury (etc.) and is excreted. So, you take it 30 minutes before eating the cilantro, so it's in the intestines waiting for a bond. There are tinctures and extracts of cilantro... I don't care for them. I juiced it a couple of times. It can be pretty foul unless drunk when very fresh. I live in Houston, where cilantro is everywhere, as Mexican food conquers the world without a shot, so I buy it frequently, sometimes use it, but in larger quantities than one normally would, like half a bunch chopped up in vegetarian pinto beans... very good! The mercury levels drop, fairly slowly. It is stubborn. That's about all I know on this variant of detoxing. It appeals to me.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 The white crowns are supposed to have a gold crown underneath. The gold crown is then coverd by a composite that looks like a natural tooth. So far, mine are holdingup well but it has only been about 9 months. I have had friends with this type fo crown and they have nto ahda problem. Perhaps you should go to another dentist. Jag From: skrog6969 <skrog6969@...>Subject: Re: Amalgam fillingsiodine Date: Wednesday, November 4, 2009, 11:13 AM What is recommended to replace the mercury fillings? I am not at all happy with the white crowns I have had. The crowns fall off in a very short time. One only lasted 3 years. Another one has a cavity under it because they don't bond properly with the tooth. I had a temporary crown that lasted for 8 years. There has to be something better than these other crowns. I don't have the money to get crowns or fillings replaced every three or four years. If this is the same substance they use to fill cavities, I don't want it. There has to be something better. What about gold? I have alot of silver fillings in my mouth. When I was a kid, the orthodontist had my regular dentist actually file down my molars because they had "hills and valleys" and I could get cavities while I had my braces on. So, all my molars have fillings in the centers. I wish I could afford implants, but I can't. >> ,> > You have a jewel of a dentist! The ones here where I live in Alabama still think it's silly to replace amalgams. There are a couple of biodentists in the area, but they're waaaay out of the ballpark, $$$ - wise.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 I'm confused. Is more mercury released into our bodies through the extraction process even when the proper procedures are followed? I read somewhere that one should only have it done in stages, not all of them at once, because of the overload. If this is true, how does the mercury enter the body? I went to a biological dentist to have most of them removed. I still have a couple of nickel crowns and a bridge. I also have a root canal. Is there amalgam in my root canal?

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 When you do a hair analysis, it is the hair that is closes to your scalp that is the most recent, and reflective of the mercury in your body. If you are concerned about Mercury in your body, you can take coriander (cilantro) and stamped chlorella. They both work, one to pull it up, and the other ( cilantro) to pull it out of you. But you need to take both in order for it to be effective. Remember, the chlorella has to be stamped so that it can penetrate your system.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 Resin/composite fillings are billed according to the number of facets they contact. The standard range is $75-200 per filling. If the amalgam filling is large enough to compromise the structure of the tooth when removed or is close to the nerve, a crown will have to be made. $1000 per tooth. Extractions are typically cheap. $150-200. Conscious sedation/anesthesia is always billed separately, at an hourly rate.... ballpark $125/hour. The partial depends on the material and the coverage. $500-$1500. > > I have been detoxing my son and I am ready to start with myself. I have 19 Amalgam fillings.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 You may also want to consider contacting a dental school if you do not have insurance to see if you can get a student that is about to graduate " doing their time " . It may be a viable option. Perhaps maybe Andy can chime in on this, but we dumped all the metals possible, and then got a cavity and it was filled with a composite because the dr didn't do amalgams. I was discussing the fact that 's metals are showing aluminum now, even though our water is clean, we eat 90% organic and unprocessed foods, etc. and was told that composites contain aluminum. 6 of one, half a dozen of another, you know?? http://www.hugginsappliedhealing.com/story5.php My youngest got a cavity (same darn tooth) and had a root canal, composite, etc. and they didn't clear the entire cavity. She now has developed a stye on the eye that is the same side as the infection and is quite persistent. It only really responded to cold laser therapy!

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 Margaret, If you have dental insurance, you may be able to get some of the costs paid for. If your amalgam fillings are over a certain age, dental insurance will usually pay for some of the cost to replace them. Also, they will usually pay the full cost of replacing any front/visible fillings with composite for cosmetic purposes. Whether or not they will reimburse composite filling in the back will depend on the insurance company. I recently had 5 amalgam fillings in molars replaced. They were between 15 and 28 years old. Under my old insurance (Delta Dental), the out of pocket cost was going to be @$700 because Delta didn't pay for composite in the back. They were only going to pay for the amount amalgam would have cost. However, my husband's work changed insurance to DHA Assurant before I could have the work done, and they covered composite fillings in molars. My total out of pocket was @$200 to replace the 5 fillings. I've just had a consult about my 2 crowns. We don't know what is underneath, but it is probably amalgam fillings. It is going to cost me probably $1500 to have them redone. One is older and probably will be covered by insurance while the other is only 8 years old and I'll have to pay all of the cost. I recommend you go to the dentist you want to have do this and ask for a consult...they often won't charge you and maybe you can get a ballpark estimate. Hope that helps > > I have been detoxing my son and I am ready to start with myself. I have 19 Amalgam fillings. Does anyone know how much it would cost to have these removed?

I was discussing the fact that 's metals are showing aluminum now, even though our water is clean, we eat 90% organic and unprocessed foods, etc. and was told that composites contain aluminum. 6 of one, half a dozen of another, you know?? http://www.hugginsa ppliedhealing. com/story5. php My youngest got a cavity (same darn tooth) and had a root canal, composite, etc. and they didn't clear the entire cavity. She now has developed a stye on the eye that is the same side as the infection and is quite persistent. It only really responded to cold laser therapy!

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Thanks for the warning .  I will be very careful from now on what they put in my mouth for sure.  I have had my amalgam fillings since I was a kid.  My kids do not have any amalgams.  ) From: Shepard Salzer <_Shepard@...> Subject: [ ] Re: Amalgam Fillings autism treatment Date: Sunday, December 13, 2009, 12:45 AM  Hi Margaret, Make sure to check that the partials don't contain toxic metals. I know that many dentures contain mercury and cadmium in the pink gum part, not sure what they use in partials. S S Amalgam Fillings Posted by: " Margaret " shavers3 (DOT) com shavers3 Fri Dec 11, 2009 3:18 pm (PST) I have been detoxing my son and I am ready to start with myself. I have 19 Amalgam fillings. Does anyone know how much it would cost to have these removed? I also am considering getting the molars removed and having a partial denture put in place to reduce the cost. I have four children so as you can imagine I don't have all the money in the world to spend on myself. Are there any other alternatives that I might consider?

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 Hi stacey, I've gone the half way route. I haven't has all amalgam removed and the actual removal if not done properly can cause more problems than leaving amalgam in situ. I just refuse to have any more amalgam when teeth need refilling so the burden reduces over time. see Becky Dutton's Mercurymadness site for more info. My dentist is NHS, but I argue with him! > thyroid treatment > From: stacey57@...> Date: Mon, 30 Aug 2010 16:01:28 +0000> Subject: Amalgam fillings> > Hi all,> > Has anyone had all their amalgam fillings removed and replaced and what did it cost?
