Guest guest Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 Bill So you are saying your only source is the ADA opinion ? You need to look at the research yourself, if you do you would have a different conclusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 Watch the mercurymatters videos on youtube. Dr. kennedy addressed this issue. He was not bothered by mercury, neither was his grandfather or father who were all dentists. However, dentists and dental assistants testified they were poisoned. It has to do with the genes, other toxic exposures, bio accumlation. It would definitely be a red flag for me if I had auto immune diseases and had worked around mercury in a dentist's office. My brain NEVER vibrated, burned and I never had L'hermittes's phenomena until 9 days after a dentist PARTIALLY drilled out a mercury filling a put a toxic crown on top. And I went on to experience many other symptoms. http://www.MercuryPoisoned.com/marie.html <http://www.MercuryPoisoned.com/marie.html> I still struggle with brain inflammation.

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 I agree with Yvette and think that you should definitely consider what is in your mount as causing a complex and chronic illness whatever it's form. When I went to this new Lyme doctor he looked in my mouth and asked if I had any root canals. I said I had a lot because I was born without my two incisors on top of my mouth on each side. It is a birth defect from my dad's side of the family. I spent years going to dentists for bridges to make it look better and when I had this work done they didn't have veneers or I would have had some alternative to what I had done. I didn't know I was doing anything wrong. I was 19 years old at the time. I always seem tired though I remember that-- never had a lot of energy-- needed at least 8 hours of sleep. The LLMD I am going to now who treats chronic illnesses said I would bet your mouth played a huge part in your illness. He said the mouth becomes a sewer ( hate to be disgusting but his words) and it goes to your stomach and messes up the rest of your body. Remember the one article that someone recently posted on the group? Your mouth is about a half inch give or take from your brain? makes sense no? The dentist Hal Higgins wrote a book that I have about the effects of what dental work can do to your health, it's called ITS ALL IN YOUR HEAD.  I have read through it and he has seen patients do much better and improve after having the garbage taken out of their mouth. The LLMD I am going to referred me to a dentist who is experienced at the removal of different problems-- amalgams, root canals etc. I had steel posts put in my mouth which were drilled not far from my brain to strengthen my teeth for a bridge. Think that made me sick? I do.  My mom said it was the only exposure she could see that would have made me so ill. I didn't smoke ever, didn't drink-- etc... but my mouth was messed up from birth and what I had done by dentists made it a disaster. I know there are dentists out there who don't use these substances and are conscious of trying to keep people well, but the others are living in the dark ages. Another alternative medicine doctor I talked to who used some of Dr. Hans Niepers treatment is in Nebraska and he is an MD who himself became ill with MS and was almost in a wheelchair. I had a phone consult with him and the first words out of his mouth were: Have you had a lot of dental work? Root canals? I said -- yes. It is unrealistic to think that we can separate our heads from out body and thats what a lot of doctors as well as dentists do. Many doctors do the same thing-- oh-- your mouth couldn't be making you sick. SURE.  Sorry for the long post.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 That story about your doc asking you if you had dental work reminds me of an article written about lisa marie presley, where she got very ill and nobody could tell her what was wrong with her, she had access to the best doctors in the world and flew all over the country from one doc to the next doc. and none could fix her. She finally was going to give up as there was no end in sight, a friend recommended a naturopath and she went and sat down in his office and she was bracing for all kinds of tests and questions and he just asked her one question...... open your mouth. She opened and showed the doc her teeth that had all kinds of mercury fillings in them. He said, get those removed and that was the end of the appt. She had the mercury removed and her health and problems finally recovered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 The documentary " Under the Eightball " covers how environmental toxins can flip genetic switches that allow / encourage us to be sick. Recently, the documentary became available on DVD. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Under-The-Eightball/114474081915390#!/pages/Under-\ The-Eightball/114474081915390?v=app_7146470109 Trailer: This is a Lyme disease documentary. Was a bit confused how the first third covered environmental pollution problems in Michigan / Detroit. The middle third covers the producer's sister dieing from this nasty illness. Finally, the last third covers the pollution flipping the genetic switches. The house I live in when I got sick had been built on top of a land fill. I was able to track my early symptoms to 2 " rainfalls. Figure the large rains raised the ground water and lifted whatever death vapors were in the land fill through the cracks in the basement floor, and into the house. Now I get to figure out what to do w/ this sickness. > > My MS symptoms first surfaced shortly after a dentist, instead of putting a crown on a broken tooth, to save time and money, reconstructed it using amalgam. It felt like I had a mountain of the stuff where my tooth had been. In my opinion, my MS was triggered by mercury poisoning. > > Dudley Delany > > http://profiles.yahoo.com/dudley_delany > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 Hi Bill I know that may be difficult to believe, but the ADA is not being honest. This is no different than tobacco insisting that their product was safe for years and years and asbestos companies saying their product was safe before they were pressed in court. It is no different. Big companies get stuck in these situations, where they have a product that initially they might not have realized was so dangerous like tobacco and asbestos, but later find out how bad it is but then they have all these years of use and that means large financial legal liability. So they have alot to lose from having huge liability on their hands, their lawyers step in and do damage control and interfere with science and the truth for as long as they can. So when the ADA says it is safe, that is their lawyers talking not the scientists. But it only delays the inevitable as the truth eventually comes out in a long court battle like tobacco and asbestos. When the lid finally blows off of this ADA coverup, I think you are looking at damages bigger than tobacco and asbestos lawsuits combined, when the truth comes out, the ADA is going to be in a world of hurt.

Guest guest Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 Sometimes I wonder if my amalgam removal (3) made my MS worse. I got MS 1 year before my amalgams removed, so removal itself was not the cause. However about 9 months after the removal I started to get a lot of brain symptoms. Overall I feel better that they are out, but I just wonder if I did move more mercury into the brain during the process. I did use a dentist who was IAOMT certified, but I recall the dentist didn't seem to be using that many precautions. However, I was highly anxious and in a daze during the procedure because I was so nervous that it would make me worse or that a nerve would be damaged, etc--So I wasn't really paying that much attenion to the precautions that were being taken. In retrospect I think would have used one of the other amalgam specialists within driving area, because I think the dentist I used may not have used enough suction and they were so focused on putting cold water on the teeth that it was hard not to swallow the water. Guess I will never know. In some ways I feel really glad knowing there is ZERO metal in mouth now, but on the other hand I do wonder if it contributed to my brain symptoms such as brain fog and dizziness--which as mentioned above seemed to develop about 9 months after amalgam removal. > > Bill > So you are saying your only source is the ADA opinion ? > You need to look at the research yourself, if you do you > would have a different conclusion. > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Hi Bill and all If it helps, I have never had a filling. I had the letters 'M' and 'S' written on MY doctors' files - amalgams/fillings have nothing to do with it in MY case. Funnily enough, I visited my first English dentist today who said I had fantastic teeth - my gums are terrible, but my teeth are very good. She was very surprised I had no fillings! I thought I should add my bit because I had a discussion in the LDN group regarding 'MS' and fillings/amalgams. A member didn't really understand that I didn't have a filling as I've been labelled as having 'MS'. I've had treatment for CCSVI and get better everyday now - especially thanks to my newly assigned neuro-physio. She is currently concentrating with me on teaching me to walk again by watchng which muscles I have to remember to use when walking. It seems that I had for all intents and purposes, forgotten how to walk properly. We're now retraining me to walk! It's frustrating, but is really satisfying when I actually walk properly. MY issue it would appear has been mostly vascular, compounded by many years of inefficient dietary practices. I still recommend people get tested for CCSVI and if possible, have the procedure if found to have CCSVI. I think you're right - it could and seems to be that all manner of metals/toxic agents plus bad food choices plus blood flow issues are the reasons 'MS'ers end up with our problems.

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Safety of mercury-containing dental fillings at issue * Use of fillings in kids, pregnant women biggest concern * Critics urge ban, industry groups say fillings safe * Move could impact Dentsply, Danaher's Kerr, others (Adds panel recommendation, comments, share prices) By Heavey<http://blogs.reuters.com/search/journalist.php?edition=us & n=susan.heavey & \ > GAITHERSBURG, Md., Dec 15 (Reuters) - Enough uncertainty surrounds silver-colored metal dental fillings with mercury that U.S. regulators should add more cautions for dentists and patients, a U.S. advisory panel said on Wednesday. While past data has backed the cavity treatment, the fillings should be accompanied by warnings about unknown risks for vulnerable people such as children and pregnant women, the Food and Drug Administration's panel of outside advisers said. " There really is no place for mercury in children, " Suresh Kotagal, a panelist and neurologist at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, said of the toxic metal. Metal fillings are used in millions of Americans' teeth to patch decay, but are increasingly being rejected in favor of bone-colored resin that is more eye-pleasing. Mercury has been linked to neurological damage at high exposure levels and makes up about half of a metal filling. While the FDA has said no new specific new evidence has emerged about the fillings' safety, the agency wants input on how it assessed the data and drew conclusions after receiving four petitions questioning its 2009 ruling. [iD: nN10272453] While the panel stopped short of urging a ban, it wants the FDA to look at the latest data and reassess its guidance after the agency last year declared the fillings safe. Their advice follows a divisive two-day public meeting on the FDA's handling of such fillings, also known as dental amalgam. The FDA could decide to continue backing the metal fillings, urge more cautious use, or ban the products. Some European nations have banned amalgam use. The agency's actions could affect dental filling makers such as Dentsply International Inc (XRAY.O<http://www.reuters.com/finance/stocks/overview?symbol=XRAY.O>) and Danaher Corp's (DHR.N<http://www.reuters.com/finance/stocks/overview?symbol=DHR.N>) Kerr unit, and distributors such as Henry Schein Inc (HSIC.O<http://www.reuters.com/finance/stocks/overview?symbol=HSIC.O>) and Cos Inc (PDCO.O<http://www.reuters.com/finance/stocks/overview?symbol=PDCO.O> ). Critics told the advisers there was a clear link between mercury fillings and side effects, especially in more vulnerable patients. They should be banned or not implanted unless patients give consent, they said. But some dentists and trade groups said data shows the fillings pose no harm once set in a patient's tooth Dental amalgam is an appropriate option to offer patients, " said Grant, a past president of the National Dental Association, which represents black dentists. Grant added that the cost-effective fillings help prevent further tooth decay or loss in poorer people. Other dentists testified that mercury was too risky and that they no longer use such filings. Dozens of patients also detailed how their health deteriorated after getting amalgams and urged the panel to push FDA to reverse course and initiate strong warnings, especially for children and pregnant women. The at-times rancorous public testimony, which drew two police officers as a precaution, elicited applause, boos and even gas mask props from vocal critics. " The agency so far has taken no steps to protect this most vulnerable population, " Sylvia Dove, a member of the group Consumers for Dental Choice, told the panel on Wednesday. The FDA's advisers were mixed on the benefits and risks of amalgam. Some said data supports it while others said it was unnecessary when alternatives are less risky. Most said it should remain an option as long as patients are clearly told about the risks. Panelists disagreed on whether resins are a costlier and less durable alternative. They raised questions about older scientific methods used to assess mercury and expressed concern that some studies FDA weighed in making its 2009 ruling were outdated. " Clearly, FDA needs to take a new look at recent literature, " said panelist Judith Zelikoff, an environmental health professor at New York University School of Medicine. , head of the FDA's division that oversees dental devices, said officials have grappled with the safety issue for decades. Even if the FDA reviews newer data, " We could end up in the same situation where we are now ... in that the data are inconclusive, " he told panelists. Although the FDA earlier said it would not necessarily take new regulatory action, said the agency was poised to make some decisions soon: " Obviously everybody in this room wants something to happen quickly and so do we.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Hi all! Followed this thread and interestingly enough, this is Dr. Mercola & #39;s hot " new " info on amalgams. Just got it to today in my email... Check it out! By the by, in Germany amalgams not banned but before a dentist places them the patient has to be informed of all dangers and sign a waiver.... Most dentists do however recommend composite fillings over the amalgams, since it is also dangerous for them to work with. http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2011/01/28/scientists-urge-fd\ a-to-stop-amalgam-use-in-children-pregnant-women-and-hypersensitive.aspx Healing wishes, Bianca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Amalgams are the biggest mercury exposure for MOST people, but certainly not all. Besides seafood, other possible exposures are: vaccinations containing thimerosal, contact lens cleaning solutions in the 80's and 90's that often contained thimerosal, working with cement and other construction products containing mercury, and exposure in the womb to the mercury in one's mother's amalgams. I, personally, was exposed in all of the above ways, so there is no doubt in my mind that mercury is a huge problem for me. But, we're all different. And people differ genetically in their susceptibility to mercury toxicity as well. And I don't think mercury is the only cause of MS. I too had the CCSVI procedure a few weeks ago, and have experienced small improvements so far. I tried LDN for a whole year with no positive result, but might try it again now that some of the mercury has been cleared away and my veins have been opened. MS is a unique puzzle for each one of us, and we just have to try different things to find what helps. I've read many, many books by people who conquered their MS, and the most common help mentioned is diet, but these are not all the same. The most recent book I finished is " Rising Up " by York. She helped herself immensely after decades of debility (and wheelchair use) through a combination of diet, traditional Chinese medicine, bodywork, tai chi and chi gong exercises, and certain nutritional supplements. I'm convinced that the help is out there, but is not the same for each of us. And all the evidence I've seen is that the so-called " disease modifying " (CRAB) drugs that the neuros push work only as placebos, if at all. I tried Rebif for 7 months early on, and only got worse. The neuro I used to go to insisted that diet and supplements are mere placebos. Ha!
