I wrote on my chart at one dental place that I did not want any Hg fillings. The idiot woman dentist put in what she called a "silver filling". I asked her if that was a Hg filling and she said yes.
I went off on her and told her she was a liar, and that Hg was toxic and that she had better read her patient's history and follow it.

I have not darkened their door since then.

Hg fillings are a racket; they crack and fall out and lead to bigger problems after a few years, like root canals and extractions.

I also spent a lot of money getting my Hg fillings replaced with plastic, two root canals removed and cleaned out and the root holes sterilized with O2 and antibiotic liquid to kill the anaerobic bacteria, and a ligament removed from a hole where they had left a ligament when they removed a wisdom tooth in 1972. There was an anaerobic infection in that place too.

You know about anaerobic bacteria? They are deadly. Things like botulism (dented cans of food), tetanus (sealed wounds), gas gangrene.......nasty, deadly stuff.

I don't want any of those in my jaw.

I remember being at home in bed resting, just a few hours after I got the root canals removed and the holes cleaned out. I noticed that I could think faster. Anecdotal evidence, but it happened.
