First of all, most dentists are not scientists. Dentists who have chemistry degrees are more likely to understand the danger of amalgam fillings. See http://www.mercurypoisoned.com/dr_frederick_smith_editorial.html to see an article published by a biological dentist and a Chemist from Lynchburg, VA who has been poisoned by mercury himself, and knows it is dangerous.
The position of Health Canada in 2006 is published at http://www.mercurypoisoned.com/health_canada.html. I copied it to my site before they had a chance to take it down. However, it is not being enforced in Canada because people there are being poisoned also.
From your quote, "Additionally, mercury is not actually absorbed into the body through the fillings. If exposure to mercury in this form happens at all it is usually through extended chewing, especially gum chewing, and it is in its vapor form. In that instance, it’s inhaled."
Mercury can be absorbed through the body. Neurosurgeon, Dr. Russell Blaylock says mercury vapors are absorbed through the soft palate and then travels through the olfactory nerve right into the brain. If you will contact me [email protected] I will send the author of this column some articles by a neurosurgeon who knows more about brain damage from heavy metals than do dentists.
People are exposed to mercury vapors up to 90 minutes after chewing, drinking hot liquids, having teeth cleaned, brushing teeth. To calm down the vapors one can drink a cold liquid.
But the greatest amount of exposure happens when a dentist drills out an old filling, and does not properly protect the patient from mercury vapor. The International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology has developed protocols and equipment to use when old fillings need to be removed to reduce patients exposure to mercury vapor. www.iaomt.org
Not all these protocols and equipment are taught in dental schools simply because of archaic ideas that are promoted in dental school, and reflected in this column. People with low immune systems can not stand the additional exposure to mercury vapor during dental procedures and removing only one filling without protecting the patient from the vapor could put them over the edge and lead to poisoning since mercury is a bio accumulative toxicity.
I was poisoned because I was on an immune lowering drug prednisone after a bout with Bell's palsy. My dentist did not properly protect me from mercury vapor and then placed a toxic crown over top of a partially drilled out mercury filling. The metal in the base of the crown interacted with the mercury in the the filling, drawing out more of the mercury. Dissimilar metals in the mouth (metal crowns over mercury & other metals) set up a battery like effect which causes severe toxicity. Dentists call this oral galvanism, but the ADA plays it down and only calls it an allergy to metals. I tasted metal, was nauseated, and felt like I was dying.
When I had the toxic crown removed I tasted no more metal. I traveled 400 miles round trip for 5 visits to a safe biological dentist that protected me from mercury vapor. I went through a detoxification process and use many supplements in order to function. I see a holistic doctor who understands mercury toxicity. It happened to me in 2001, and I am still in the process of recovery.
Nine days after my dentist drilled into a mercury filling I woke up with my brain "on fire." I lost my memory, could not focus, developed chronic fatigue, sore muscles, food and chemical allergies, floaters in my eyes, tingling and numbness throughout my body. See my story at www.MercuryPoisoned.com/marie.html.
I am on the Board of DAMS, Dental Amalgam Mercury Solutions, Intl. and we help people find safe dentists who use special precautions, and explain how fillings should be safely removed. We teach the public to avoid toxic dentistry. www.amalgam.org
Dr. Boyd Haley, bio chemist, and former Chair of the University of Kentucky's chemistry department says, "Dentists are giving people neurological diseases every day."
