Re: Remove amalgam fillings or extract root canaled teeth?

I agree with phelp about not having any metal in the mouth. It interfers with the communication of the brain to the body and organs.

My dental work was done about 15 years ago. I too rejected implants for a couple of reasons, and didn't replace the teeth with anything.

The main problem with not replacing them is eventually the teeth will move and cause problems with the remaing teeth. There is one solution, and that is to get a plastic mouth piece to wear at least at night to keep this from happening.

Again phelp was right in that you should be tested for compatibility to the plastic. or whatever they use.

As far as food, I user a water pic with an ounce or so of 3% H202 in the water to clean and food particles from between the teeth or in the spaces where there are no teeth. Much better that flossing. You will be amazed at what you get out.

Having had amalgams & RC's for as long as you had them, I would bet that the long list of health issues you have would be history, or at least to a minimum. I had probably a half dozen, and within a month they were history.

One last thought, If the dentist installs implants too, that might be the reason for the recommendation. There is big money in installing them. They quoted me 20K for 2 RC's, and 4 amalgams back in 2000. 50k for the whole mouth.

You might want to check out the protocol for removing teeth like yours, before you decide on who's a good holistic dentist.

Lot's of luck
