How to get your mercury fillings safely removed, to ensure no further damage to your health.

While I have discussed so much already on Steemit about how dangerous mercury ("silver amalgam") fillings are, it's important for people receiving the information not to freak out & rush out straight away and get them removed by an ordinary dentist. Removing mercury fillings is not a regular trip to the dentist, it involves a few safe protocols that need to be followed. When getting mercury fillings, you're exposed to larger amounts of mercury. When mercury fillings are in your mouth, they are a constant source of mercury vapor. When they are removed, you are again exposed to mercury, a neurotoxic heavy metal. So, here are some things you can do to keep yourself (And your dentist) safe during removal.

Ensure you & your dentist are on the same page & agree with each other about the dangers of mercury fillings! Do they follow..

Activated Charcoal

Activated charcoal taken right before removal can reduce absorption of poison by 60%. Your dentist can also rub activated charcoal around in your mouth to soak up any poison.

Bite wing X-rays

Bite wing xrays, these are best done after mercury filling removal, and before placement of new filling. This is to ensure no "specks" of mercury are anywhere in your mouth before new fillings are set.

A rubber dam & oxygen mask

A rubber dam is a must. This will protect you from swallowing any mercury, and isolate the rest of your mouth from mercury. As you can see there is an oxygen mask, so you can breathe uncontaminated air through removal.

Adrenaline free injection

Adrenaline injections are usually fine, for people that aren't toxic. When you have mercury in your body, your adrenals are often a little shot. The last thing you need is more adrenaline. Adrenaline free injections work just as well as ones with adrenaline. You can also take vitamin C after removal (Not before) to dissipate the effects of the anaesthetic, and to assist your body in healing.

Each case is unique, mercury fillings affect people differently. From mild issues to more extreme ones. It's important to recognize what's going on with your body & support it through the process of amalgam removal. If you are confused about what the correct thing to do is, you can join a group on facebook called

Andy Cutler Chelation: Safe Mercury and Heavy Metal Detox

The 30,000 strong group houses an assortment of health scenarios they can help with. Given the amount of dangerous protocols out there for heavy metal removal, that group is the best bet in steering away from hurting yourself.

Removing mercury fillings is one of the greatest things you can do for your health. Ideally ceramic will be used in place of the mercury fillings, however this is an expensive option, so going with the white composite, is far better than mercury. I wish all Steemians great health & magic!
