Guest guest Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 Thank you , Deb and Ma Huang for sharing your advice about antibiotics and getting your experience getting your teeth cleaned. This is very helpful and solves the mystery about what happened last time my teeth were cleaned. The dentist did finally listen to me today and prescribed 2 grams (4-500 mg tablets of amoxicillin), to be taken 1 hour before my cleaning. I hope it is the right antibiotic for the job. I guess I will take a day off the knotweed and red root tincture while taking the amoxicillin in case of any possible interactions. Thanks again! Take care, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 Remember to detox after the appt if you are doing amalgam work. This can include binders like chlorella, activated charcoal, apple pectin, and even cilantro (google cilantro pesto recipe for heavy metals). My dentist also told me to take Vit C and Vit E for several days before and after my amalgam removal. I am having the last 2 (of 5) amalgams removed this Friday! I waited to get my amalgams removed until I was feeling better because some people feel much worse after doing it. I know this is a little off topic from dental cleanings but thought I'd share. deb > > Thank you , Deb and Ma Huang for sharing your advice about antibiotics > and getting your experience getting your teeth cleaned.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 May not want to take Vit C the day of the procedure. I forgot about my dentists recommendation to stay off it, took 1 g C/Salt a couple of hours before my appt, and I had to be numbed up 3 or 4 times for a small filling, as my body kept chugging through the carbocaine. Vit C helps your body metabolize numbing agents VERY quickly! > > Remember to detox after the appt if you are doing amalgam work.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2011 Report Share Posted January 13, 2011 Thanks , I had mentioned this in an earlier post about dental work but good reminder - antioxidants interfere with local anesthetics. deb > > > > Remember to detox after the appt if you are doing amalgam work.
