* Since 1991 the Swedish Government pays 70% of the cost of removing

Amalgam Filling from it's citizens.

* In November 1993 Sweden passed legislation placing a TOTAL BAN on

the use of Amalgam Fillings to take effect from July 1997!

* On 21 December 1993, Degusa AG, Germany's largest manufacturer of

amalgam announced that it would no longer be making the product.

Good luck Dean, and I hope your fillings didn't cause you as many

problems as mine have caused me

I think filling removal can be overblown by some health sects in

society. If someone has genuine problems associated with their

fillings, or if someone's paranoia would be relieved by removing them,

then I say remove them. But I don't think removing them is necessarily

the right thing to do. It's important to avoid the health hype,

whether it be about fillings or otherwise. If someone's health has

been improved dramatically, or even moderately for that matter, due to

the removal of their fillings, then I'm glad for them.

I am going to start using the dmsa powder tonight while using dental godzilla to

see if there's anything strange or untoward in it.

are used to fill teeth.

saying the mercury is not dangerous in these amalgams because it is trapped in

the silver. Others think unless you remove even your mercury thermometers from

your house, you are still in danger.

> Without getting into this fight, one simple way to avoid potential trouble

while using your " dental godzillas " might be to get some capsules of dmsa (at

health food stores). This stuff is used as a heavy metal cleaner in hospitals

for mercury, lead and cadmium poisoning cases. Sprinkling a little of the

tasteless white powder in the mouth and sloshing around will help to capture any

released mercury from use of dental godzilla.

> The levels of current and the length of time is so short that any silver

and/or mercury being released is likely to be very low indeed. You will get

more mercury from tuna fish, probably. I really don't know, but have to make

some sort of a guess here.
