When conventional dentists pull teeth, they routinely leave behind the ligament that connects the tooth with the gums. The gum heals over, and a cap of bone forms over the cavity where the tooth was. What's left does not have good circulation and eventually tissues die, bacteria grow and turn anaerobic, and this toxic soup diffuses slowly into the lymphatic system and from there to the rest of the body. Go in there, clean out the socket and grind away a millimeter or two of bone, and as it re-heals (if you're careful not to dislodge the blood clot in the first day or two) the bone fills in and there's no longer anyplace for anything to grow. That's the theory, anyway. Some of the folks at the clinic I went through are already seeing improvements, so I'm optimistic that they're not making it *all* up out of whole cloth. <grin> > Sure hope yours heal fast Mike, ...what a nightmare to > go through. Did they do that over a period of days? Healing from the dental work is coming along fine, one month out. Detox and long term improvement are a work in progress. Nothing exciting to report, but no serious complications either. They did it all in one sitting for me, under "conscious sedation." Umm, I went to sleep and don't remember a thing! <grin> Others had to have two sessions to get all the work in. Many were in the chair longer than the 3 1/2 hours that I was. They do a lot of things to speed healing and minimize pain -- some kind of insulin injection near the surgical sites, magnets, a painkiller, massage and accupressure treatments... I'm surprised, actually, how well the discomfort was managed. We did pretty well, actually. > They'd have to just put me to sleep and do it all. I > can't stand dental nerve pain.

Well, it's not something you do on a lark! I thought it over for a long while, believe me. I finally decided that if I'm going to fully regain my health and stamina I'm going to *have* to remove the burden of heavy metal poisoning and let my body heal itself. If I didn't, everything I'd ever try would be handicapped. Enough other people I've talked to have seen their health improve after amalgam removal, that I had a pretty high level of confidence going in. We'll see how it goes over the next few months.
