I also heard, years ago, that you should go to a dentist that specializes in removing those fillings. So that you do not become poisoned in the removal process. Any dentist can remove them but not all dentists do it properly. Beth
I would suggest you find a dentist who will protect you during the process. It sounds like this one is playing with your health. PT From: Pat <pattycake29...@yahoo.com> To: silver list <silver-list@eskimo.com> Sent: Tue, November 2, 2010 3:58:23 PM Subject: CS>Mercury Filling I went to the dentist today and although they said the gums were very healthy, I have a tooth with a big mercury filling that needs a crown. It was originally filled in 1989 and has some decay. The dentist, who calls them silver fillings, quit using them many years ago but won't come out and say they're bad. They now have crowns with no metal, made of zirconia. I'll be glad to get rid of the old filling, but I'm sure this regular dentist won't be doing all sorts of whatever the ones do who specialize in removing mercury fillings. It's to be done one week from tomorrow. Is there something I can take to start protecting me from the mercury I'll be inhaling or whatever? Anything I should do afterwards? Thanks, Pat
