If my memory serves me correct he said he would have to leave a very very small amount of silver filling and place the composite over it. I called his office and he said he rarely would leave any silver filling if he was replacing it with a composite. I wanted to go ahead and chelate without having to replace my crown. Could I try the DMSA and see how I feel? Any thoughts? ---------It is not recommended to chelate when you have any amalgam left in your mouth. Others have reported getting worse when they have done this, and you might not notice it right away.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 No way. Make sure there is no amalgam in your mouth. Why risk it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could I try the DMSA and see how I > feel? Any thoughts? In a word - No.. In a couple of words - Absolutely not! :-) Please don't even consider this. Go an get a PANORAMIC x-ray to make sure what is going on in your mouth. http://www.livingnetwork.co.za/healingnetwork/pan.html It will clear up the matter for you, unless of course you have metal crowns where amalgams can lurk under. All old metal crowns should be lifted to check underneath them The value of Diamond Crown is that you can see through them on x-ray as there is no metal content.
