@basspig Is your mercury-free dentist also mercury-safe?
The reason I ask is approximately 50% of the dentist now claim to be mercury-free but for so many this was an economic choice because their patients didn't want mercury. The still drill out old mercury fillings and unfortunately that can give you a really big dose of mercury. Youtube video "Safer Amalgam Removal" shows you what you should expect. You and the staff need protection and a separate air source when mercury is being drilled.
@davidkennedydds I saw that video too. My dentist doesn't use them anymore, but I don't know if he removes existing amalgam fillings or not. Years ago, he didn't believe this stuff, but I spoke with him in the 1990s and perhaps now it's sunk in because he uses composite fillings for the past several years.
@basspig Wait a minute. Every dentist in the world removes amalgam. Some put more back in others do not but still if the tooth was filled with mercury before and gets a new cavity (every 5 years or so) then that needs to be drilled out before and refilled. If the dentist isn't protecting the staff then they are engaged in unlawful practices. if they remove mercury and don't protect you then you can get worse not better.
@davidkennedydds Years ago, I discussed this with my dentist (around 1998) and he said he didn't believe in the need to remove amalgams at that time. He said he could make a lot of extra money doing so, but didn't feel that it was an honest activity for his practice at that time. He's stopped using amalgam fillings, but I have no idea whether he is doing replacements now or not. My wife got some fillings last year and they are all composite and tooth colored.
If the tooth is removed due to some issue such as a root canal or crack in the body then it is probably the safest way to get the mercury out only for one problem, after the tooth is pulled you won't have that tooth any more and personally I like to have my teeth. So what I always told my clients what to save the teeth and get rid of garbage which included dead teeth, bad bugs, nickel, cobalt or palladium crowns bridges partials and amalgam. Back to the basic healthy teeth.
@deppressed1 Problem was money but not the kind you're thinking. All other methods cost more than using a 150 year old toxic material when fixing a tooth that has already been militated by amalgam. If this is the first filling composite not only works better it lasts longer with more tooth left when it fails so it is not only cheaper it is better. But when someone sits in the chair and says I am so poor I can't afford to fix this tooth, pull it the dentist tried to "save" it. We love teeth.
Dosis solum venom facit for dose alone makes the poison . . .
So do not overlook the additional impact of all the multiple shots of thimerosal (ethyl mercury) 250 mcg each shot that every soldier received in the vaccinations.
I didn't see any possibility of a hoax or even any humor to implanting a time-release toxin in a persons tooth. Since this simple demonstration has been duplicated for over 100 years by many different scientists I can only assume you're a dentist deep in denial.
Even more funny to read your reply. I'm not a dentist at all. But I do have some common sense, and also some knowledge about chemistry. I'm very sorry to break it to you, but mercury will not be evaporating from a filling like shown in the video. The laws of the nature makes it impossible. I also know that it is completely impossible to discuss facts with fanatics like you, so I'm not quite sure why i even bother...
If you bothered to look up mercury you'd see that its vapor pressure doubles with each 10 degree increase in temperature and since pure liquid mercury looks exactly the same I suggest that you are merely stuck in the cranial-rectal position. It smells bad and you can't hear a thing so pull it out and watch the next video;-)
And by the way, haven't you realized that dentist are the one that are most eager to show the world that you should use white fillings instead of the longer lasting silver fillings? Do the math, what do you think dentist would profit the most on doing? Long lasting silver fillings, or short lived white fillings that needs to be changed all the time?
The real hoax is dentists claiming white fillings last as long as silver fillings!
They also profit from making crowns which cause of failure many mercury filled teeth so what? Dentists get paid and if you believe that all information is self serving then you better stay away from all professionals.
Personally I think most dentists are good people who have been badly misinformed by their profession. If you don't believe that go watch Theresa of the Cal Dent Assoc try to explain why they never tell members how to comply with OSHA "Poison in Your Dentist's office"
You missed the point. They profit more if they do white fillings, since they do not last as long as amalgam fillings. That means they will be replaced more often, and also more teeth will need ending up with crowns than if the teeth were filled with amalgams.
Also, as a patient, I do not want to go to the dentist more often than needed to get my teeth drilled into, it's not that fun...
At the F&DA hearing the risk assessment found that 63 Million Americans are dosed above the minimum risk level. focus here it is not about who shot John. It is all about dose of a very toxic element that is totally avoidable.
At the FDA hearing in Dec. 2010 they estimated that at most the initial cost of filling would be 10% greater but over time the cost of replacement would actually be lower due to the way they fail.
I've kept "temporary" glasonomer [sic?] fillings that were supposed to last for two months, a total of 7 years now, and they're still going strong- despite trauma, poor diet, and I must admit occasional neglectful care.
I'm currently suffering from insomnia, constant itchiness, joint and muscle pain, memory issues, lethargy, and mood swings from previous mercury exposure, and at 31 years old I cannot afford the detox treatments, so keep the long term in mind, I urge you.
What the FUCK!! I have 5 large amalgam fillings and I'm considering taking pliers to them. I had concerns in the past about mercury vapour, I thought who better to ask than a DENTIST. My dentist got PISSED OFF at me when I asked him non-amalgam fillings, and told me I get more mercury eating fish.
Is anger a reasonable response to a legitimate question? I think not.
BTW He is dead wrong about the fish. Eggleston in 1987 solved that issue by measuring the brain and kidney Hg levels of those who had amalgams and those who had 32 perfect teeth with no fillings of any kind. The amount of mercury in your brain and kidney the day you die is proportional to the number and size of mercury/silver filli9ngs in your teeth as dietary Hg was presumably the same.
@davidkennedydds I guess its time to get a new dentist hey? I'm going to go see about getting them pulled and/or replaced. I have 5 amalgam and 2 resin ones. Even the lady that was cleaning my teeth, when I asked her if I could have non-amalgam ones, she had the attitude like "Ohh I don't know you better not ask for those he dosn't like doing those" She actually said, He dosn't like doing them. I literally had to argue with him to get him to give me them.
What you need to do is show the idiot the back of your head as you walk away. Many if not most dentists are mercury poisoned which makes them a very bad source of information on how to protect yourself from amalgam derived mercury. They literally don't know. They have had no training whatsoever in toxicology.
Go to the IAOMT web page dot org and look under your zip code state or area code. If you feel you may be mercury toxic then you need a physician from AAEM or ACAM.
Thanks! There are apparently none where I live, and I'm too poor right now to travel to get them done. I don't want to wait for like 3 years of saving before I can go get them taken out. I know this sounds retarded, but is there any safe way to pull the whole tooth by myself? I was speaking to my mother and she is so sick she can barely get out of bed somedays, they have run all kinds of tests and can't figure out whats wrong with her. She also has a mouth full of mercury.
I wouldn't go to that extreme unless you were certain that mercury was the cause of your problems. It might only be part of it or none of it. Chronic mercury poisoning is due to prolonged exposure. Careless removal turns a slow problem into a big one immediately.
Nylander showed that chewing a hard boiled egg yoke stops the mercury vapor until filling is again stimulated by heat, chewing, clenching so put eggs in your pocket to eat after you chew. Remember to breathe out when chewing.
I can see that the amalgams are showing detectable levels of mercury on the Jerome Analyzer when the amalgam filling is disturbed. I was wondering what amount of mercury is released during xray of an amalgam filling?
I would think it would be quite a bit and that it would be a relatively easy experiment on a extracted tooth or on a willing patient with the tube inserted in thier mouth over the amalgam.
Would the mercury vapors would then be radioactive and even more harmful?
Interesting thought. I've never tried to x-ray a filling. I am certain that if it heated the filling mercury would spew.
As for making the mercury radioactive my understanding is that generally takes a nuclear reactor. At least in the sheep and monkey experiments they had to irradiate 10% of the mercury in that way to trace the leakage from the fillings.
"POTENTIAL causal pathways".....In other words, we don't know. I never said that mercury is a dangerous substance. I am saying that 50% of the dentists in the U.S. still use amalgams because they are not that risky. If I'm allergic to peanut butter, I take a risk by eating peanut butter. In other words, most human beings have a tolerance to mercury. It's in the air we breathe. The water we drink. And in some foods we eat. Blaming all of these illnesses on amalgams is absolutely absurd. Period.
While traces of mercury can be found in air, water and certain foods by far the predominant source of human exposure and resulting body burden is from dental mercury/silver fillings.
Hiding behind scientific uncertainty is what the tobacco companies did. The public was not pleased with their attitude and has consistently levied heavy fines and punitive damages. Mutter described a causal relationship between mercury and Alzheimer's disease.
@davidkennedydds Do you realize how long they've been using amalgams in teeth? Nobody in all that time has ever died from almalgams. People have died from tobacco use. Terrible comparison by you. Just tell me this...why do 50% of dentists still use amalgams? They aren't required to do so. They won't lose their job if they become mercury free dentists. I bet if I looked at your history, the ADA probably took your license. And this is your backlash. Just like all of the others making false claims.
How can you claim no one has died? I know dentists who have died from occupational exposure. Assistants who lost babies (yes miscarriage) and became infertile. Another dental assistant I know had a mercury poisoned child who only lived to age 35.
Alzheimer's disease will kill 10% of adults now alive and Mutter et al. are saying causal. You are not truthful when you claim mercury from amalgam has not killed anyone.
MS ALS Parkinson's Autism are all linked to mercury.
@davidkennedydds Can you read? I said nobody has died from amalgams. There is a difference. Amalgams have been used since the 1800s and 50% of dentists still use them today. Get over it. They aren't killing anybody. If they killed people or caused illness, there wouldn't be 150,000+ dentists still using them.
I suppose you want them to choke on them in the dental chair?
What they died from is the mercury that leaks off the filling every day and accumulates in their brain. Alzheimer's kills as does MS, ALS and Parkinson's so for you to claim that bo one died is not reasonable and certainly not true.
Chronic exposure to large amounts of elemental mercury vapor from dental amalgams is linked to a whole host of problems especially in APOe4/4 and other vulnerable subsets.
@davidkennedydds Again you are making false claims. Nobody has ever proven that the Alzheimers, MS, etc comes from amalgams. I can't even believe that you would write something so foolish. You are just ruining your credibility with statements like that. What about the people who get Alzheimers and MS who don't have amalgams? I'm done posting to you because it's a waste of time discussing with a moron who makes false youtube videos. You can't even read my posts and respond to anything coherently
I say linked and you counter with proof i.e. "the dreaded cigarette defense".
Causation is considered to be the proximate cause as in proven to make happen. I gave you Rothwell on hearing. Here is Mutter saying IM is causal for AD.
J. Mutter, et al. Does Inorganic Mercury Play a Role in Alzheimer’s Disease? A Systematic Review and an Integrated Molecular Mechanism JOURNAL OF ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE Vol. 22 #2, 2010
Perhaps you've been away somewhere on anotehr planet or something but you can not truthfully claim that 150,00 dentists use amalgams in the US. "The Wealthy Dentist" poll in 2009 found that 51% of the dentists no longer used any mercury in their practices so technically you are the alternative practitioner now.
Interestingly slightly more men were mercury-free than women dentists.
Unfortunately very few are mercury-safe and OSHA / IAOMT compliant.
@davidkennedydds Exactly. So according to you, at least half of the dentists in the country are wrong and are killing their patients. And you say I'm the one on a different planet hahaha. Amalgams have been around since the 1800s. If they were a problem, they would have been banned long time ago. You act like our government and ADA doesn't care about human safety. I find that very funny. Amalgams are outdated and there are better materials and that is why SOME dentists stopped using them.
The experiment that I liked was the 1880's physician who would put a cockroach in a matchbox with an amalgam and kill the roach. Pretty good evidence that the mercury was not "locked in" as dentists claim.
Virtually all of the neurological diseases I mentioned appeared in our society AFTER the introduction of amalgams so your anecdotal claim does not hold water. In addition measurement of AD and MS find significantly higher mercury than controls. Be safe. say NO to mercury.
In deed half the dentists have stopped using them because better materials abound and the public understands that so called "Silver" fillings leak mercury.
Only dentists with no training whatsoever in toxicology and without any training in neurology claim that exposure to mercury is harmless.
@forever1634 OK try the largest cohort study to date.
New Zealand Defense Force (NZDF) has its own dental service, providing all personnel with regular
and consistent treatment and comprehensive treatment records.
The final cohort contained 20 000 people, 84% males. Associations with medical diagnostic categories, particularly disorders of the nervous system and kidney, and amalgam, multiple sclerosis had an adjusted hazard ratio (HR) of 1.24 (95% CI: 0.99, 1.53, P = 0.06).
if that were true...if one filling gave a reading of .116, then every person with silver fillings would be dead. And it wouldn't take very long for them to get sick and die if it truly was .116. In other words, your video is a complete sham. You should be ashamed.
What do ignorant dentists do when faced with overwhelming evidence that they have blundered terribly?
Call the messenger bad names and deny they are guilty.
You can reproduce this very simple demonstration with no trouble at all. I got the idea from reading a report published in the California Dental Association Journal in the early 80's by Harold Utt. Dr. Utt measured over 400 µg/M3 just over a very sick woman's filling who eventually recovered after the mercury was removed.
@davidkennedydds where is the evidence that dentists have blundered terribly? The fact of the matter is that poisoning from mercury fillings is a very rare occurrence. Just ask the MILLIONS of people with them. The experiment in this video is completely flawed. Do you see how the vapors are raising in the air? Mercury vapors don't rise like that. They fall. The flaws of this experiment have already been specifically stated by numerous ADA reports. The reading shown in this video is a joke....
Focus here for a moment. The video used a Jerome Mercury sniffer to firmly establish the presence of large amounts of elemental mercury vapor over an amalgam filling once it is stimulated. A puff of poison so to speak.
The short list of mercury related disorders: Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's, MS, ALS, Autism, Cleft Palate, Hearing loss, peripheral neuropathy all of which cost hundreds of billions to treat unsuccessfully in most cases.
@davidkennedydds Give me just one piece of evidence (fact) that mercury fillings cause bad health effects. Don't worry, I'll wait bozo....
Just give me one study or one fact or one piece of evidence that mercury fillings cause any of those disorders. Oh that's right...you can't. For someone that tries to say that the ADA can't provided evidence, you sound like such a fool who makes false claims with zero supporting evidence. Comical. Focus. I know you can do it.
@forever1634 Wait wait I can and have often cited evidence that mercury from amalgam causes many illnesses. I just told you about Rothwell's study that found hearing loss but wait there is more.
Loss of color vision for example:
Color discrimination impairment in workers exposed to mercury vapor. Abstract.
Joachim Mutter, Annika Curth, Johannes Naumann, Richard Deth, Harald Walach Does Inorganic Mercury Play a Role in Alzheimer’s Disease? A Systematic Review and an Integrated Molecular Mechanism JOURNAL OF ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE Vol. 22 #2, 2010
Our mechanistic model describes potential causal pathways. In vitro models showed that IM reproduces all pathological changes seen in AD, and in animal models IM produced changes that are similar to those seen in AD.
And Siblerud in a whole series of studies found that victims of MS measurably improved when mercury exposure ceased after carefully removing all amalgams.
Siblerud R L A Comparison of mental Health of Multiple Sclerosis Patients with Silver/Mercury Dental; Fillings and those with fillings removed Psychological Reports, 1992, 70, 1139-1151
So even if mercury is not causal at the very least we can confidently conclude that mercury from alamgams aggravates the disease.
@davidkennedydds mistype...I never said mercury WASN"T a dangerous substance. But every single reference that you have provided does not prove that amalgams cause illness. I know people who have MS and had amalgams put in....it didn't aggravate their MS one bit after several years. That's the problem with all this amalgam scare that you are trying to cause. There is no supporting evidence. That's why very good and ethical dentists continue to use amalgams. They aren't required to keep using them
I gave you what you demanded published peer reviewed scientific evidence that mercury from amalgam fllings is causing harm and you give me a tragic story about how you actually put mercury fillings in an MS victim who did not immediately get worse. That is anecdotal at best and criminal in my opinion.
I'll bet you didn't tell the MS victim that your "silver" fillings were going to increase their body burden and daily dose of a powerful neurotoxin. . mercury linked to MS did you.
@davidkennedydds and FYI, there is no known cause for MS. they don't know what causes it. So to link MS to mercury is completely outlandish. You can't prove that mercury causes any of those disorders idiot. And you speak of evidence from the ADA hahahahahahahahaha
True causal is not being used yet with regard to MS but links to mercury are irrefutable.

Yes that is my good friend Grant Layton an IAOMT dentist. His son Chris is also a dentist in Encinitas and works with Grant sometimes and has his own practice up in Oceanside.
100 what? What are the units of mercury concentration here? I'm asking so that I can reference this video to definitively show unsafe levels. If you have already answered in these comments, please put it in the video description, because I can't go through all of them.
You can read the scale on the front of the Jerome. It puts a decimal point in front so it reads in milligrams of mercury per cubic meter. So the reading is 0.116 mg/M3. OSHA says 0.100 mg/m3 is immediately hazardous to your health. EPA limits air quality to no more than 0.0003 mg/m3.
@sh4p3shifter Coming from someone who is in the middle of a dental nightmare (of 18 months now), let me tell you - DON'T REMOVE YOUR TEETH! They're your TEETH. They're not going to grow back. You need them to chew. Removing them will lead to a whole other list of problems and pulling teeth isn't that affordable either. It's so sad that average folk like us can't afford dentists.
Sorry for the nightmare. It is all too common. I wrote a book on how to save yoru teeth with toxic free preventive dentistry. Since it was published in 1994 I've added iodine to my list of ingredients any good water pick could use. Yes it stains and yes if you swallow too much you can get a reaction but don't swallow it.
Teeth rot because of diet and bad bugs. The most common tooth decay germ is Strep mutans. It dies quickly with a dab of iodine (Lopez).
@davidkennedydds on the subject of devils advocate, i wasnt blaming the "victim". as a man of medicine u will already be fully aware, just because a patient says they eat healthy you cant take that as the truth without examining all possibilities, to rule out that the problems have nothing to do with diet without knowlege of them would be foolhardy. just as it would be for me to rule out that the fillings were not to blame without evedance. i was simply postulating a diferential diagnosis :-)
No you are not merely exploring alternative. You are denying and trying to find some alternative to the obvious and I might add well proven link between exposure to levels of poison that have been shown to cause harm. Poisons advocated by a trade that has no license to treat any of the symptoms of poisoning except the lucrative cosmetic field. Postulating in dentistry passes for science but in fact is merely obfuscation and miss direction.
just out of interest does it look like they will ban amalgam restorations in most 1st world countries any time soon? you seem to be in a position to have a good idea if they will.
@andypandyhu many countries have long ago abandoned this antique and antiquated material that destroys teeth and health.
Japan does not teach its use. Sweden has phased it out since 1987 and almost entirely removed it except in extreme cases. Stating from a toxicological [point of view it is an unacceptable material.
Germany banned copper amalgam in 20's but lost a war. Put up a new ban in 1992 and after peer reveiwed arguments again banned it in 1994. Norway did not ban it until 2008.
In Norway a TV documentary found over 450 mercury poisoned dental assistants. There is no doubt that dental assistants are being harmed. So Finland followed suit with a me too and so did Denmark. Austria followed Germany.
Canada did a risk assessment and determined one amalgam for a child and 4 adult.
What the liars claim is the product was banned for environmental reasons which would in my mind be a good reason for us to say me too but in fact the health issues were the reason.
Amalgam is an implant as previously determined by the FDA 1978 and all implants are Class III unless there is evidence to support a different class. Both the panels have lamented the gaps in data but it is clear harm exists.
The FDA does not have any choice really. The dentists will drag their feet but the laws are clear. If you cannot prove it safe it has to be placed in Class III where the manufacturers are required to submit evidence of safety.
@davidkennedydds Thumbs up for promoting preventive dentistry (if all dentists ever did was give diet and OH advice everyone would be better off), but to say 'toxic free' is surely unethical and misleading? The carcinogenic properties of the components of dental composite presumably mean you can't use that? And glass ionomer leeches fluoride, so we can't use that either... And to be consistent, you must believe that we should be defluoridating water where levels are naturally high?
Advocates for Toxic Dentistry are fond of quoting the 15th century physician Paracelsus "All things are poisons and dose alone makes them so".
that wasn't true then and it is not true now but dose is a good place to begin a discussion of a poison.
Interesting you'd use the word unethical. Calling a mercury filling silver is not only unethical but clearly misleading but that us exactly what new dental students are hammered with by ADA accredited teachers.
@greylights888 Perhaps you haven't seen my documentary "China's battle with Crippling Water" filmed on location in Inner Mongolia in 1999. Natural fluoride at 4 PPM crippled men, women, children and farm animals yet the ADA claimed in 1986 that 8 ppm F causes no detectable harm when the EPA established 4 as the MCL/MCLG.
In 2006 an expert panel for the National Research Panel voted unanimously to reject the MCLG as safe. In Oct. 2006 the ADA warned members to avoid fluorosis avoid F tap water.
Mercury aka silver fillings are horrible don't do it, I have a plethora of health problems now, tinnitus/thyroid/weight/heart murmur/excessive saliva etc...and I'm vegetarian (eat pretty healthy)
@royalblowno just to play devils advocate, you ever think your health problems might be because your a vegitarian? most vegitarians think they are healthy eaters when the truth isnt always that. alot of the problems you discribe can also be due to deficiencies in zinc, calcium, Vitamin D, Iron, Vitamin B-12, and protein.
@andypandyhu Devil is right! This is old PR of blame the victim for the problem. These are well known difficulties of a poor diet of junk food or school cafeteria.
Since mercury depletes B12 by blocking methylation of the precursor isn't that any deficiency is undoubtedly enhanced by exposure to a well known poison mercury?
If being a vegetarian is so bad 4 U why do they live longer?
@davidkennedydds once again to play devils advocate, yes an unhealthy mixed diet can lead to early death due to ischaemic heart disease for example as people abuse foods, but unhealthy vegatarianism also leads to many many health complaints that shorten life span. its just easier to not abuse the non vegatarianism so i wouldnt say being a vegetarian will extend your life as if compaired to sensible mixed diet, just my view.
Damn, I think I had several fillings as a kid, I've suffered from depression my whole life, I feel like I might have possibly been cheated out of life.
I was mercury poisoned from amalgam fillings and almost died. I had severe allergies ans multiple strep throats per year from the day they were put in until the day they all came out. My life is almost totally ruined now from the metabolic damage the mercury caused.
Congress knows all this. Many doctors have testified. I've seen doctors from Baylor College of Medicine testifying before Congress on C-SPAN with my very own eyes about how mercury impairs the cytochrome enzymes and causes illness
@serotone9 But the ADA and FDA are covering up the dangers and the toxicity because of the massive lawsuits that would result. Norway, Sweden and Denmark have already banned all mercury fillings in everyone. They have socialized medicine and have to foot the bill when people are sick. Here, people getting sick is a money making business, so they cover it all up to keep the profits rolling in and avoid the lawsuits.
@serotone9 The FDA is under the Obama administrations authority now and there is a new sheriff in town or so they say. The IAOMT filed a petition to address the many factual errors in the most recent dental F&DA proclamation of amalgam safety and in an unusually transparent response the FDA candidly acknowledged that they would review the risk assessment methodology in a public forum December 14-15 in Gaithersburg MD.
This is the time for science to once again try to trump politics and money.
@davidkennedydds OMG, the IAOMT is the most biased, corporate sponsored bull-shit pseudo-science group I have ever seen. Try looking at research done by people WITHOUT a dollar interest in scaring people off amalgam, and you will see a far more accurate picture. If you want science to trump politics and money, leave the partisan IAOMT well alone.
NOT TRUE just more of the pr approach to the issue of dental negligence. I am retired and if mercury were banned it would save me hundreds if not thousands of dollars and many hours of time.
So you claim we've got some kind of financial interest.
The head gal with the FDA owned millions of dollars in Shein shares and says amalgam is great. She told congress shed recuse herself but never did. Isn't that called bias and conflicts of interest?
@serotone9 You know that dentists would all be rich beyond anything if they had to replace everyone's amalgams, right? Some dentists do just that, but the rest of the profession frowns upon it as it is basically exploiting people and using their fear to make money. Regardless of what the (partisan) sites you go on say, if you actually look at the studies done, their is no evidence to suggest amalgam fillings are harmful - lawsuits wouldn't get anywhere for that reason.
@greylights888 Dentists would be rich? Dentists can face serious reprecussions if they go against amalgam and the entire ADA would collapse if it was established that they were unsafe. How is that for a one-sided point of view? How detailed are the tests for the fillings, the abscence of evidence is not the evidence of abscence.
@greylights888 There is plenty of evidence that it is harmful, not least of which is the evidence of my own life, which was devastated from the cytochrome P-450 damage done by the mercury, which is attracted to sulfur groups, binding to them and disabling them.
One of the things we are just now fully understanding is how antibiotics enhance mercury toxicity. Even the autistic children show a much higher use of antibiotics before the onset of their neurological impairment.
In toxicology it is never one thing. There are so many other modifying factors such as genetics, concurrent exposure to lead and other sources of exposure. It is insane to put a time-release poison in teeth.
@serotone9 Depressed and anxious one day, amalgams removed and buzzing with energy within hours. Definitely not a textbook placebo effect. You obviously in no way have deep rooted psychological issues and have not been conned by people offering you allergy/cytochrome/strep tests (for a fee, naturally).
Your screen name (serotonin) doesn't indicate an obsession with anti-depressants and psychiatric disorders, and it should in no way set anyone's alarm bells ringing about you maybe being nuts.
@greylights888 "Placebo effects" don't last for years. But go tell your skepticism to the FDA, who just said that amalgams indeed pose risks to people and have issued warnings about its use. Warnings for which people? Pregnant women, children, people who have genetic polymorphisms of the cytochrome P450 system, and people who have allergy to mercury, the latter two of which I both have. Go tell it to the doctors and researchers at Baylor College of Medicine, who testified as to the same thing
@greylights888 ...before Congress. Go tell it to the scientists and governments of Norway, Sweden, and Denmark, who have all permanently banned mercury amalgam fillings for their citizens, because they know the science and they know the dangers. Then we can all have a good laugh at idiots on the internet like you with no science background and not the slightest clue about genetics or the proven neurotoxic, antimetabolic, and immunological effects of mercury in the human body.
@greylights888 Yah right. Accuse the accuser of greed. Every dentist in the world replaces amalgam. In the latest survey less than half put mercury back in. Sadly few take the legally required steps to protect their employees. Watch "Safer Amalgam Removal" and read the blog. One fool dentist did even know that there are laws requiring employee protections from mercury.
@greylights888 WHAT?? There is no evidence that amalgam fillings are harmful? They're mercury. Mercury doesn't belong in the mouth and body. It's poison. I think there's plenty of evidence.
@ITRANS4M Yes, mercury is toxic. However, the rate at which it is released from amalgam fillings has no observable medical consequences, and the best scientific papers (meta-analyses) confirm this. Coupled with this is the fact that replacing everybody's fillings would have a huge economic cost; estimated to be many billions. Do you not think we could use that money better to improve people's health in real ways which *do* have observable medical consequences? Cancer research? HIV treatments?
@greylights888 That's incorrect, because some people have genetic polymorphisms of the cyctochrome enzyme systems that process mercury and do not process it as well or as fast as other people, leading to higher burderns. It's also incorrect, because the dose in this case doesn't make the poison in people who are allergic to it. How many peanuts can you eat without dying? Probably many. So it's not the case then that some people can die just from breathing a speck of peanut dust right? wrong.
@serotone9 You are absolutely correct that mercury can damage almost any system in the body but don't dispair there is hope of recovery. I've known literally hundreds of people who at one time were poisoned and now live more or less normal lives. There is a support group "Dental Amalgam Mercury Syndrome" DAMS that can help guide you. Also tow major medical groups teach their members how to treat this common malady. ACAM and AAEM.
@davidkennedydds You seriously believe this guy had: (1) Severe allergies, (2) Multiple strep throats per year, (3) metabolic damage and (4) a totally ruined life, all from amalgam fillings?
For a start, if the mercury is as toxic as you claim it would kill any streptococcus bacteria that might cause a sore throat. But for some reason you don't point this out, and let him carry on blaming all his life's woes on his fillings. Unethical sir, and disingenuous.
@greylights888 If mercury is as toxic as he claims? Do you know the full effects of mercury? Your theory on it killing streptococcus is rediculous, it is an immunosuppressant for one and can potentially lead to more infection which supports that guys theory.Until the fillings are removed and mercury is determined to be of low concentration in the body, which there is no test for, you cannot be shure that mercury is not the cause of the problem. Your claims are as supported as his.
@apocalist420 If you want to view things in that way, then definitely get rid of the amalgam fillings - it's highly irrational though, and what should they be replaced with? Composite fillings? You know they contain a cocktail of cancer causing petro-chemicals, right? (Also harmless, but you guys are the paranoid ones here...)
@greylights888 Paranoid? What are you basing this on? Which chemicals, the ones I am getting do not contain BPA to the best of my knowledge but I am willing to take a chance. Mercury is established as the second most toxic substance known to man to my understanding, that is what I am basing my decision on, not theory. I try to be as objective as possible when viewing the facts, I cannot come to the conclusion that amalgams are safe.
@greylights888 Some bacteria EAT mercury. It's safe for bacteria so it must be safe for humans? Are you completely clueless?
I had average 3-4 streps every year for over a decade. All the doctors who were as ignorant as you could do was throw antibiotics down my throat. I was on just about every antibiotic known, from penicillin to keflex to ceclor and on and on and on. All completely stopped after having amalgams removed.
You are clearly a troll, I don't think anyone believes your b.s.
@glycop We've tried that but due to the heat of the human body and the air currents you do not get the easily visible "mercury vapor" that you can do in a static demonstration. Nevertheless I did use the Jerome Mercury sniffer to firmly establish the presence of mercury in the vid The Beautiful Truth. I am standing at a right angle to the vapor so I can't actually see it but I swing the sniffer through the plume some of the time and get enormous numbers. All amalgams leak mercury.
People used to eat this shit. My dad coted his arms in it as a kid, he is still alive. Fucking California and regulations in general they just say well too much can kill you so lets make sure they don't get any. Well here is some news for you watter can kill you if you drink too much. Other thins are way over regulated like radiation, these 10,000 people had way over the legal limit for 10 years and it prevented almost all their cancer ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2477708/
This method delivers inaccurately high numbers because the equipment is designed to be used in a large space - not applied directly to a surface. The equipment applies suction, dislodging conductive materials on the tooth and further skewing the results. It is not evidence that the vapor shown in silhouette contains any amount of mercury. A urinalysis of an individual with amalgam fillings and no other environmental exposure and without use of any chelating agents would be more proper.
This is unfortionate for the people who really don't care. I do not believe in anything the government says anymore, i have to research and choose for myself. Floride is pretty much like this as well. Its less populated then "murcury poisining" but farr more potent. Edward Barneys (i think thats his name) created the Dentist Asso. and wanted to "dumb down" America. What better way than to copy Hitler and use FLOIDE. Now we have it in our water, food, EVERYTHING! and i am NOT happy about it
Find all details heavy metal toxicity plus videos on my info site poisonmetal . com
The famous + acknowledged dentist/author Dr. Tom McGuire (DDS) says this about my info site:
In all of the years I've been involved in the mercury issue, from many levels, I've never seen a better and more comprehensive resource website. It is fantastic and I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for the best information about this subject. You are to be commended - thanks for your good work!
Actually the good news is the F&DA has agreed to review their approval this Dec. 14-15. The IAOMT filed a petition to reconsider. We pointed out 27 factual errors in their approval. Petitions like ours are seldom approved but the evidence we presented was truly overwhelming.
Reasonable minds may differ but there is no question the dose of mercury from even a few fillings exceeds the minimum risk level.
@davidkennedydds dude, your gonna end up dead of suicide is whats gonna happen. monsanto eugenics freaks are running this country now, and they will never reverse their genocidal mechanizms.aspartame, high fructose, theres no way they will give in to seeing your results. they will have to demonize your findings somehow. i hope your ready for that. good luck.
They cannot avoid the truth and thanks to YouTube everyone can see it for themselves. If you want to see how much they wiggle and squirm go read the blog on Smoking Teeth. The dentists are "trained" by a trade association that lies to them. They then believe the lies and repeat them to their patients. This should be stopped.
There are consumer laws that require products to be called by the primary ingredient MERCURY.
Call these fillings mercury and the public will decide.
@davidkennedydds just remember these guys have psychopaths on their payroll. but your right, if you put it out to enough people you put more light on it. I just saw what they did to doctors that cured cancer. since then they have just been killing doctors,scientist, climatologists, any one with truth and solutions. good luck though, its worth it in the long run anyway. I'd take a bullet for a good cause.
@2skullscrushing Personally I'd rather stay alive for the cause. Telling the truth is what this channel is about and it provides people access to truth. Read the dentists who cannot stand the truth.
What they do is evil but I think they are merely fools. I too was such a fool when I first graduated but through study of the scientific literature you can overcome indoctrination. All research is not necessarily truthful but the actual studies allow for replication so we can verify results.
@davidkennedydds - Great Job putting out Truth info, many Doctors and experts in the field are stepping up and tired of the BS and lies to make other people RICH and Powerful. I was a HAZMAT Inspector for the Govt and just to transport Mercury, Flouride and other stuff commonly found in our foods and medicines Required Hazardous alert placards and can be all found on the material safety data sheets of each product. It's all about money and control and "They" don't want to lose it. Good Job bro!
Once elemental mercury gets into water, right, certain bacteria meffylate it into its most toxic form, wich explains 'ow fish become such a rich dietary source of the toxic metal. Cor blimey guv! The amount of meffylmercury that a fish accumulates will rise wiv mercury contamination in its 'ome waters and also wiv 'ow 'igh its species resides in the bleedin' food web — wiv top predators like shark, right, swordfish and tuna at the chuffin' apex.
Then they tell us we need fluoride in our water and toothpaste,this is also a problem I have water distiller so I can get pure water,i use Modified Citrus Pectin or PectaSol now to remove all the heavy metals
I had about 5 mercury fillings in my mouth when i was a kid. I suffer from nervous system problems and depression now. I had to go to the hospital and was treated for major depression a few years ago.
You are correct to blame the dentists but the reasons for their utter failure to protect their patients may not be quite so obvious. The education they receive during their "education" is not accurate nor truthful. As a result most dental graduates are taught that no mercury is released from so called "Silver" fillings. They are taught to call them silver because using the word mercury makes people nervous. We have consumer deception by almost an entire profession.
The problem is endemic in the dental profession because our government regulatory agencies have allowed a trade association that makes money from industry to train our dentists. This failure to protect the public is due entirely to a failure of our government regulatory bodies. We can bad mouth the dentists but the problem is much much larger and must be addressed system wide.
Consumer laws prohibit lies. Law enforcement should therefore enforce our laws.
I wouldn't think it is particularly painful as long as ordinary pain control procedures are followed such as local anesthetic and if needed nitrous oxide but cost is another issue.
It is far less costly than to have one of the many neurological diseases chronic exposure to mercury vapor causes not to mention quality of life issues. The product should be banned but sadly 50 tons a year are still being implanted in the mouths of unsuspecting people by uncritical dentists.
@davidkennedydds I hear it's so toxic and dangerous to the enviorment that even the disposal consist's of specific procedures. I just found out about this recently...oh if I had known. How any sane person could even consider placing this within the human body-- the mouth at that-- is beyond me. On average, 7 amalgam removals would cost somewhere between 7000-10000 (?) Should they all be done at once ?Planning on doing this in the next month and would apprecieate any info.
@teched246 Yes the material arrives in a package with skull and cross bones. Watch "Safer Amalgam Removal" on my channel and go tot he IAOMT web site and download the protocols. Be very careful about getting them out as that can give you an enormous dose if not done carefully.
@teched246 Sometimes but that depends on your policy and also the condition fo the old fillings. Some welfare types of insurance only cover putting more mercury back in when removing old amalgams. Have your dentist help you figure out wheihc ones have failed and can be replaced for clinical reasons and which ones are merely cosmetic.
Yes it is insane and due primarily I believe because a trade association (ADA) with deep economic interests in the continued use of mercury, not to mention liability for injury, accredits every dental school in the US and furthermore has its members as a majority on every dental board.
They are doing the associations business instead fo protecting the public. That is called RICO and it needs to be vigorously punished in my opinion.
i've got amalgam fillings, what are the best ways to get them removed? can i get them replaced with a crown or new filling? is there anyu chance i can get them out myself because having them removed is very expensive. i've noticed the tooth refused to grow around it or repair itself while my others do.
@cnutofcnuts I would use some Modified Citrus Pectin by Now foods ,google that,its also called PectaSol you can find them online I bought some at health food store it rids your body of the mercury and other heavy metals at least if you can't afford to have them removed you can clean up the toxins in you
My dentist told me that the mercury in amalgam was extremely dangerous and told me he could lose his license for telling me so. He told me he removed the amalgam fillings from all the teeth of everyone in his family and had it removed from his own teeth.
He only said that every time you bite down on an amalgam filling as small amount of mercury vapor is released into your mouth. He said all amalgam fillings degrade and erode with years, and people swallow that eroded material with their food. And he said your body has difficulty eliminating the mercury ingested and inhaled, and that it causes many problems over years. He wasn't specific about any changes he noticed after removing the fillings, but I think that would be hard to determine.
He only told me these things after I had asked him what he thought about the dangers of amalgam fillings, and he told me very cautiously. He was an old guy, and probably wouldn't have been in practice much longer anyway, but he was very concerned about losing his license from having told any of his patients about these dangers. Obviously, he had been warned by somebody.
Your dentist is correct about both the seriousness of exposure to elemental mercury vapor and the fact that those responsible for protecting the public from bad dentists are instead protecting bad dentists.
While the professional has sworn an oath to "first and foremost do no harm" their actions speak louder than words.
Using the power of the state to attack dentists who have the courage to speak out against organized stupidity is RICO organized crime and racketeering.
Yeah, I recently bought a 4 CD set of an interview of Dr Russell Blaylock, interviewed by Dr Stanley Monteith in which Dr. Blaylock covers quite a bit of history of dental amalgams as well as water fluoridation. Even though the interview proceeds very calmly and professionally, it really stirred my anger against the government and the ADA. I have an appointment with my dentist this coming Tuesday for a preliminary consultation regarding replacing all my fillings with composite fillings.
I've also written an email to every member of our city council expressing my ire about the fluoride (toxic waste) that they're dumping in our water. I got one friendly reply from a lady member of the council stating that she had opposed fluoridation. I got one fairly neutral reply. The third reply was so flippant and condescending that it inspired me mount a campaign to expose this fraud to everyone in this city and particularly to expose every member of the council who votes to keep fluoride.
@rumblerider Look up Modified Citrus Pectin or PectaSol to rid yourself of the toxins heavy metals I'm using it myself an even if you don't have the mercury fillings removed this would help
I have had 2 amalgam fillings for 27 yrs, I always tasted the metal and hated it and the day after they were put in as a child I developed psoriasis and acne. My parents knew I was allergic to metal and didn't think - now my metal allergy is worse and my psoriasis is so bad my hands bleed I will be getting the fillings removed ASAP. Sometimes I reckon it may also be a metal allargy and amalgam has tin and other metals as well as mercury which I also think is poisoning my nervous system.
We are all exposed to mercury every day. Why are any us still here? Why doesn't everyone has the same problems you are having? Billions of amalgams are placed every year. Why aren't there more with documented amalgam related illnesses?
Nobody thinks of their fillings being the problem. And I think that even without the mercury the metal allergy I have would have the same side effects for me with amalgam fillings since they contain other metals. They don't give people amalgam fillings anymore so it is only people in their 40's and over that have these problems and they think it is age.
If you don't want amalgams, don't get them. It is pretty easy to avoid if you think they are bad. If you don't want to go to a dentist that does them, don't. If you think you have all of he answers, you are sadly mistaken. People make decisions instantly and on emotion and usually permanently regardless. Everything isn't a conspiracy. If amalgams is dangerous, get it banned. Until then billions are going in every year.
I do not want them for myself or my family. Just as I do not want fluoride or any of the peddled pharmacides that are killing children & adults alike.
Those of us that recognise the satanic purpose behind these soft metals & corruptions will continue to dismantle the lies & deceptions.
People make decisions based upon what they know, this is where we will continue to educate & assist in the removal of these disease causing materials.
Typically of you shills for poisons & the psuedoscience of alopathic pharmacides always attempt insult & derision.
Simple question. Is mercury a poisonous material at a cellular level. This is undeniably true.
You have no idea of who it is you attempt to derride. Earlier this year, I debated with a senior member of the Royal Society & Knight of the Realm over the use of Fluoride & Mercury. This was witnessed by my work colleagues, suffice to say, he had to acknowledge & agree.
I have a number of professional qualification well above degree level. Indeed it was while I studied for these, that I came to realise just how far academia has been perverted.
I am an ecological engineer with more than 25 years of practical experience in the design & construction of symbiotic systems for water resource management.
Water has been my specialist area from the outset, so I do posess intimate knowledge of ecotoxicology with projects that have gained national acclaim.
My dentist stopped using amalgam fillings years ago. Unfortunately, I have lots of them from 20-30 years earlier.
basspig 3 months ago
@basspig Is your mercury-free dentist also mercury-safe?
The reason I ask is approximately 50% of the dentist now claim to be mercury-free but for so many this was an economic choice because their patients didn't want mercury. The still drill out old mercury fillings and unfortunately that can give you a really big dose of mercury. Youtube video "Safer Amalgam Removal" shows you what you should expect. You and the staff need protection and a separate air source when mercury is being drilled.
davidkennedydds 3 months ago
@davidkennedydds I saw that video too. My dentist doesn't use them anymore, but I don't know if he removes existing amalgam fillings or not. Years ago, he didn't believe this stuff, but I spoke with him in the 1990s and perhaps now it's sunk in because he uses composite fillings for the past several years.
basspig 3 months ago
@basspig Wait a minute. Every dentist in the world removes amalgam. Some put more back in others do not but still if the tooth was filled with mercury before and gets a new cavity (every 5 years or so) then that needs to be drilled out before and refilled. If the dentist isn't protecting the staff then they are engaged in unlawful practices. if they remove mercury and don't protect you then you can get worse not better.
davidkennedydds 3 months ago
@davidkennedydds Years ago, I discussed this with my dentist (around 1998) and he said he didn't believe in the need to remove amalgams at that time. He said he could make a lot of extra money doing so, but didn't feel that it was an honest activity for his practice at that time. He's stopped using amalgam fillings, but I have no idea whether he is doing replacements now or not. My wife got some fillings last year and they are all composite and tooth colored.

If the tooth is removed due to some issue such as a root canal or crack in the body then it is probably the safest way to get the mercury out only for one problem, after the tooth is pulled you won't have that tooth any more and personally I like to have my teeth. So what I always told my clients what to save the teeth and get rid of garbage which included dead teeth, bad bugs, nickel, cobalt or palladium crowns bridges partials and amalgam. Back to the basic healthy teeth.
davidkennedydds 6 months ago
@deppressed1 Problem was money but not the kind you're thinking. All other methods cost more than using a 150 year old toxic material when fixing a tooth that has already been militated by amalgam. If this is the first filling composite not only works better it lasts longer with more tooth left when it fails so it is not only cheaper it is better. But when someone sits in the chair and says I am so poor I can't afford to fix this tooth, pull it the dentist tried to "save" it. We love teeth.

davidkennedydds 10 months ago
@davidkennedydds
You missed the point. They profit more if they do white fillings, since they do not last as long as amalgam fillings. That means they will be replaced more often, and also more teeth will need ending up with crowns than if the teeth were filled with amalgams.
Also, as a patient, I do not want to go to the dentist more often than needed to get my teeth drilled into, it's not that fun...

At the FDA hearing in Dec. 2010 they estimated that at most the initial cost of filling would be 10% greater but over time the cost of replacement would actually be lower due to the way they fail.

Is anger a reasonable response to a legitimate question? I think not.
BTW He is dead wrong about the fish. Eggleston in 1987 solved that issue by measuring the brain and kidney Hg levels of those who had amalgams and those who had 32 perfect teeth with no fillings of any kind. The amount of mercury in your brain and kidney the day you die is proportional to the number and size of mercury/silver filli9ngs in your teeth as dietary Hg was presumably the same.

@davidkennedydds I guess its time to get a new dentist hey? I'm going to go see about getting them pulled and/or replaced. I have 5 amalgam and 2 resin ones.

I literally had to argue with him to get him to give me them.

What you need to do is show the idiot the back of your head as you walk away. Many if not most dentists are mercury poisoned which makes them a very bad source of information on how to protect yourself from amalgam derived mercury. They literally don't know. They have had no training whatsoever in toxicology.
Go to the IAOMT web page dot org and look under your zip code state or area code. If you feel you may be mercury toxic then you need a physician from AAEM or ACAM.

I wouldn't go to that extreme unless you were certain that mercury was the cause of your problems. It might only be part of it or none of it. Chronic mercury poisoning is due to prolonged exposure. Careless removal turns a slow problem into a big one immediately.
Nylander showed that chewing a hard boiled egg yoke stops the mercury vapor until filling is again stimulated by heat, chewing, clenching so put eggs in your pocket to eat after you chew. Remember to breathe out when chewing.
davidkennedydds 11 months ago
I can see that the amalgams are showing detectable levels of mercury on the Jerome Analyzer when the amalgam filling is disturbed. I was wondering what amount of mercury is released during xray of an amalgam filling?
I would think it would be quite a bit and that it would be a relatively easy experiment on a extracted tooth or on a willing patient with the tube inserted in thier mouth over the amalgam.
Would the mercury vapors would then be radioactive and even more harmful?
skroob12345 11 months ago
@skroob12345
Interesting thought. I've never tried to x-ray a filling. I am certain that if it heated the filling mercury would spew.
As for making the mercury radioactive my understanding is that generally takes a nuclear reactor. At least in the sheep and monkey experiments they had to irradiate 10% of the mercury in that way to trace the leakage from the fillings.
davidkennedydds 11 months ago
"POTENTIAL causal pathways".....In other words, we don't know. I never said that mercury is a dangerous substance. I am saying that 50% of the dentists in the U.S. still use amalgams because they are not that risky. If I'm allergic to peanut butter, I take a risk by eating peanut butter. In other words, most human beings have a tolerance to mercury. It's in the air we breathe. The water we drink. And in some foods we eat. Blaming all of these illnesses on amalgams is absolutely absurd. Period.

While traces of mercury can be found in air, water and certain foods by far the predominant source of human exposure and resulting body burden is from dental mercury/silver fillings.
Hiding behind scientific uncertainty is what the tobacco companies did. The public was not pleased with their attitude and has consistently levied heavy fines and punitive damages. Mutter described a causal relationship between mercury and Alzheimer's disease.

@davidkennedydds Do you realize how long they've been using amalgams in teeth? Nobody in all that time has ever died from almalgams. People have died from tobacco use. Terrible comparison by you. Just tell me this...why do 50% of dentists still use amalgams? They aren't required to do so. They won't lose their job if they become mercury free dentists. I bet if I looked at your history, the ADA probably took your license. And this is your backlash. Just like all of the others making false claims.

They aren't killing anybody. If they killed people or caused illness, there wouldn't be 150,000+ dentists still using them.
forever1634 11 months ago
@forever1634
I suppose you want them to choke on them in the dental chair?
What they died from is the mercury that leaks off the filling every day and accumulates in their brain. Alzheimer's kills as does MS, ALS and Parkinson's so for you to claim that bo one died is not reasonable and certainly not true.
Chronic exposure to large amounts of elemental mercury vapor from dental amalgams is linked to a whole host of problems especially in APOe4/4 and other vulnerable subsets.

@davidkennedydds Again you are making false claims. Nobody has ever proven that the Alzheimers, MS, etc comes from amalgams. I can't even believe that you would write something so foolish.

Perhaps you've been away somewhere on anotehr planet or something but you can not truthfully claim that 150,00 dentists use amalgams in the US.

Interestingly slightly more men were mercury-free than women dentists.
Unfortunately very few are mercury-safe and OSHA / IAOMT compliant.

@davidkennedydds Exactly. So according to you, at least half of the dentists in the country are wrong and are killing their patients. And you say I'm the one on a different planet hahaha. Amalgams have been around since the 1800s. If they were a problem, they would have been banned long time ago. You act like our government and ADA doesn't care about human safety. I find that very funny. Amalgams are outdated and there are better materials and that is why SOME dentists stopped using them.

Virtually all of the neurological diseases I mentioned appeared in our society AFTER the introduction of amalgams so your anecdotal claim does not hold water. In addition measurement of AD and MS find significantly higher mercury than controls. Be safe. say NO to mercury.

In deed half the dentists have stopped using them because better materials abound and the public understands that so called "Silver" fillings leak mercury.
Only dentists with no training whatsoever in toxicology and without any training in neurology claim that exposure to mercury is harmless.

@forever1634 OK try the largest cohort study to date.
New Zealand Defense Force (NZDF) has its own dental service, providing all personnel with regular
and consistent treatment and comprehensive treatment records.
The final cohort contained 20 000 people, 84% males. Associations with medical diagnostic categories, particularly disorders of the nervous system and kidney, and amalgam, multiple sclerosis had an adjusted hazard ratio (HR) of 1.24 (95% CI: 0.99, 1.53, P = 0.06).
What say U now?
davidkennedydds 11 months ago
if that were true...if one filling gave a reading of .116, then every person with silver fillings would be dead. And it wouldn't take very long for them to get sick and die if it truly was .116. In other words, your video is a complete sham. You should be ashamed.

What do ignorant dentists do when faced with overwhelming evidence that they have blundered terribly?
Call the messenger bad names and deny they are guilty.
You can reproduce this very simple demonstration with no trouble at all. I got the idea from reading a report published in the California Dental Association Journal in the early 80's by Harold Utt. Dr. Utt measured over 400 µg/M3 just over a very sick woman's filling who eventually recovered after the mercury was removed.
davidkennedydds 11 months ago
@davidkennedydds where is the evidence that dentists have blundered terribly? The fact of the matter is that poisoning from mercury fillings is a very rare occurrence. Just ask the MILLIONS of people with them. The experiment in this video is completely flawed. Do you see how the vapors are raising in the air? Mercury vapors don't rise like that. They fall. The flaws of this experiment have already been specifically stated by numerous ADA reports. The reading shown in this video is a joke....

Focus here for a moment. The video used a Jerome Mercury sniffer to firmly establish the presence of large amounts of elemental mercury vapor over an amalgam filling once it is stimulated. A puff of poison so to speak.
The short list of mercury related disorders: Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's, MS, ALS, Autism, Cleft Palate, Hearing loss, peripheral neuropathy all of which cost hundreds of billions to treat unsuccessfully in most cases.

@davidkennedydds mistype...I never said mercury WASN"T a dangerous substance. But every single reference that you have provided does not prove that amalgams cause illness. I know people who have MS and had amalgams put in....it didn't aggravate their MS one bit after several years. That's the problem with all this amalgam scare that you are trying to cause. There is no supporting evidence. That's why very good and ethical dentists continue to use amalgams. They aren't required to keep using them

You can read the scale on the front of the Jerome. It puts a decimal point in front so it reads in milligrams of mercury per cubic meter. So the reading is 0.116 mg/M3. OSHA says 0.100 mg/m3 is immediately hazardous to your health. EPA limits air quality to no more than 0.0003 mg/m3.

No you are not merely exploring alternative.

Postulating in dentistry passes for science but in fact is merely obfuscation and miss direction.

Germany banned copper amalgam in 20's but lost a war. Put up a new ban in 1992 and after peer reveiwed arguments again banned it in 1994. Norway did not ban it until 2008.

Amalgam is an implant as previously determined by the FDA 1978 and all implants are Class III unless there is evidence to support a different class. Both the panels have lamented the gaps in data but it is clear harm exists.
The FDA does not have any choice really. The dentists will drag their feet but the laws are clear. If you cannot prove it safe it has to be placed in Class III where the manufacturers are required to submit evidence of safety.

@davidkennedydds Thumbs up for promoting preventive dentistry (if all dentists ever did was give diet and OH advice everyone would be better off), but to say 'toxic free' is surely unethical and misleading? The carcinogenic properties of the components of dental composite presumably mean you can't use that? And glass ionomer leeches fluoride, so we can't use that either... And to be consistent, you must believe that we should be defluoridating water where levels are naturally high?

@greylights888 Perhaps you haven't seen my documentary "China's battle with Crippling Water" filmed on location in Inner Mongolia in 1999.

In 2006 an expert panel for the National Research Panel voted unanimously to reject the MCLG as safe. In Oct. 2006 the ADA warned members to avoid fluorosis avoid F tap water.

One of the things we are just now fully understanding is how antibiotics enhance mercury toxicity. Even the autistic children show a much higher use of antibiotics before the onset of their neurological impairment.
In toxicology it is never one thing. There are so many other modifying factors such as genetics, concurrent exposure to lead and other sources of exposure. It is insane to put a time-release poison in teeth.

@greylights888 That's incorrect, because some people have genetic polymorphisms of the cyctochrome enzyme systems that process mercury and do not process it as well or as fast as other people, leading to higher burderns.

This method delivers inaccurately high numbers because the equipment is designed to be used in a large space - not applied directly to a surface. The equipment applies suction, dislodging conductive materials on the tooth and further skewing the results. It is not evidence that the vapor shown in silhouette contains any amount of mercury. A urinalysis of an individual with amalgam fillings and no other environmental exposure and without use of any chelating agents would be more proper.

@MrCurtispedersen
You are correct to blame the dentists but the reasons for their utter failure to protect their patients may not be quite so obvious. The education they receive during their "education" is not accurate nor truthful. As a result most dental graduates are taught that no mercury is released from so called "Silver" fillings. They are taught to call them silver because using the word mercury makes people nervous. We have consumer deception by almost an entire profession.

@MrCurtispedersen
The problem is endemic in the dental profession because our government regulatory agencies have allowed a trade association that makes money from industry to train our dentists. This failure to protect the public is due entirely to a failure of our government regulatory bodies. We can bad mouth the dentists but the problem is much much larger and must be addressed system wide.
Consumer laws prohibit lies. Law enforcement should therefore enforce our laws.

@davidkennedydds Is the removal procedure painful and costly.
teched246 1 year ago
@teched246
I wouldn't think it is particularly painful as long as ordinary pain control procedures are followed such as local anesthetic and if needed nitrous oxide but cost is another issue.
It is far less costly than to have one of the many neurological diseases chronic exposure to mercury vapor causes not to mention quality of life issues. The product should be banned but sadly 50 tons a year are still being implanted in the mouths of unsuspecting people by uncritical dentists.

@davidkennedydds I hear it's so toxic and dangerous to the enviorment that even the disposal consist's of specific procedures. I just found out about this recently...oh if I had known. How any sane person could even consider placing this within the human body-- the mouth at that-- is beyond me. On average, 7 amalgam removals would cost somewhere between 7000-10000 (?) Should they all be done at once ?Planning on doing this in the next month and would apprecieate any info.
teched246 1 year ago
@teched246 Yes the material arrives in a package with skull and cross bones. Watch "Safer Amalgam Removal" on my channel and go tot he IAOMT web site and download the protocols. Be very careful about getting them out as that can give you an enormous dose if not done carefully.
davidkennedydds 1 year ago
@davidkennedydds Also, does dental insurance usually cover this?
teched246 1 year ago
@teched246 Sometimes but that depends on your policy and also the condition fo the old fillings. Some welfare types of insurance only cover putting more mercury back in when removing old amalgams. Have your dentist help you figure out wheihc ones have failed and can be replaced for clinical reasons and which ones are merely cosmetic.

@MrCurtispedersen are you getting the fillings removed now, or had them removed?
proxicate 1 year ago
Yes it is insane and due primarily I believe because a trade association (ADA) with deep economic interests in the continued use of mercury, not to mention liability for injury, accredits every dental school in the US and furthermore has its members as a majority on every dental board.
They are doing the associations business instead fo protecting the public. That is called RICO and it needs to be vigorously punished in my opinion.

why the hell would they even put that in someones mouth?! that's not safe! thats like wearing a hat made out of mercury

i've got amalgam fillings, what are the best ways to get them removed? can i get them replaced with a crown or new filling? is there anyu chance i can get them out myself because having them removed is very expensive. i've noticed the tooth refused to grow around it or repair itself while my others do.

@cnutofcnuts I would use some Modified Citrus Pectin by Now foods ,google that,its also called PectaSol you can find them online I bought some at health food store it rids your body of the mercury and other heavy metals at least if you can't afford to have them removed you can clean up the toxins in you

My dentist told me that the mercury in amalgam was extremely dangerous and told me he could lose his license for telling me so. He told me he removed the amalgam fillings from all the teeth of everyone in his family and had it removed from his own teeth.

Thanks for you posting. Did your dentist mention any specific beneficial changes for himself and his family when the amalgams were removed?
gerstners 2 years ago
He only said that every time you bite down on an amalgam filling as small amount of mercury vapor is released into your mouth. He said all amalgam fillings degrade and erode with years, and people swallow that eroded material with their food. And he said your body has difficulty eliminating the mercury ingested and inhaled, and that it causes many problems over years. He wasn't specific about any changes he noticed after removing the fillings, but I think that would be hard to determine.
rumblerider 2 years ago
He only told me these things after I had asked him what he thought about the dangers of amalgam fillings, and he told me very cautiously. He was an old guy, and probably wouldn't have been in practice much longer anyway, but he was very concerned about losing his license from having told any of his patients about these dangers. Obviously, he had been warned by somebody.
rumblerider 2 years ago
@rumblerider
Your dentist is correct about both the seriousness of exposure to elemental mercury vapor and the fact that those responsible for protecting the public from bad dentists are instead protecting bad dentists.
While the professional has sworn an oath to "first and foremost do no harm" their actions speak louder than words.
Using the power of the state to attack dentists who have the courage to speak out against organized stupidity is RICO organized crime and racketeering.

Yeah, I recently bought a 4 CD set of an interview of Dr Russell Blaylock, interviewed by Dr Stanley Monteith in which Dr. Blaylock covers quite a bit of history of dental amalgams as well as water fluoridation. Even though the interview proceeds very calmly and professionally, it really stirred my anger against the government and the ADA. I have an appointment with my dentist this coming Tuesday for a preliminary consultation regarding replacing all my fillings with composite fillings.
rumblerider 1 year ago
I've also written an email to every member of our city council expressing my ire about the fluoride (toxic waste) that they're dumping in our water. I got one friendly reply from a lady member of the council stating that she had opposed fluoridation. I got one fairly neutral reply. The third reply was so flippant and condescending that it inspired me mount a campaign to expose this fraud to everyone in this city and particularly to expose every member of the council who votes to keep fluoride.

I have had 2 amalgam fillings for 27 yrs, I always tasted the metal and hated it and the day after they were put in as a child I developed psoriasis and acne. My parents knew I was allergic to metal and didn't think - now my metal allergy is worse and my psoriasis is so bad my hands bleed I will be getting the fillings removed ASAP. Sometimes I reckon it may also be a metal allargy and amalgam has tin and other metals as well as mercury which I also think is poisoning my nervous system.

We are all exposed to mercury every day. Why are any us still here? Why doesn't everyone has the same problems you are having? Billions of amalgams are placed every year. Why aren't there more with documented amalgam related illnesses?
bkdmd 2 years ago
Nobody thinks of their fillings being the problem. And I think that even without the mercury the metal allergy I have would have the same side effects for me with amalgam fillings since they contain other metals. They don't give people amalgam fillings anymore so it is only people in their 40's and over that have these problems and they think it is age.
SecretSylph 2 years ago 2
@SecretSylph
Do you know what is in those composite fillings? Did you know it is toxic to the pulp?
There is no way around it. Amalgams are still placed by a rate of billions/year. They are fast and they are not technique sensitive and durable.
Did you know MMA is in composite fillings and did you know it is illegal to use MMA in acrylic nails because it is toxic to your soft tissues?
Face it there is no easy answer and nothing is black and white.

On the contrary, the truth once uncovered is eternal, but lies are ephemeral & expand until the bubble bursts.
Dentists like doctors have been sadly misled as evidenced by them giving fluoride (rat poison) medicines to thier patience.
There are alternatives & the development of them has been actively attacked, now why might that be?!!
pondman27 2 years ago
@pondman27
If you don't want amalgams, don't get them. It is pretty easy to avoid if you think they are bad. If you don't want to go to a dentist that does them, don't. If you think you have all of he answers, you are sadly mistaken. People make decisions instantly and on emotion and usually permanently regardless. Everything isn't a conspiracy. If amalgams is dangerous, get it banned. Until then billions are going in every year.

I do not want them for myself or my family. Just as I do not want fluoride or any of the peddled pharmacides that are killing children & adults alike.
Those of us that recognise the satanic purpose behind these soft metals & corruptions will continue to dismantle the lies & deceptions.
People make decisions based upon what they know, this is where we will continue to educate & assist in the removal of these disease causing materials.

Typically of you shills for poisons & the psuedoscience of alopathic pharmacides always attempt insult & derision.
Simple question. Is mercury a poisonous material at a cellular level. This is undeniably true.
You have no idea of who it is you attempt to derride. Earlier this year, I debated with a senior member of the Royal Society & Knight of the Realm over the use of Fluoride & Mercury. This was witnessed by my work colleagues, suffice to say, he had to acknowledge & agree.

I have a number of professional qualification well above degree level. Indeed it was while I studied for these, that I came to realise just how far academia has been perverted.
I am an ecological engineer with more than 25 years of practical experience in the design & construction of symbiotic systems for water resource management.
Water has been my specialist area from the outset, so I do posess intimate knowledge of ecotoxicology with projects that have gained national acclaim.
