AMALGAM POISONING AND UNION TO MEET and Dental Amalgam Mercury Poisoning Marly Santiago
Since contact with orthomolecular medicine and especially after the lessons it took in German biological medicine, have evolved to understand the impact that dental amalgam usually bring to their patients. With the tools we now possess to assess this impact, the dosages of chemical sophisticated atomic spectrometry and assessments by EDS (Voll, Vegatest), and the thousands of cases successfully treated, can no longer be arguing, as does the majority of Brazilian dentists, that amalgam is harmless. I say to the dentists, the only mercury that does not injure the body, is that they put in their amalgams. Simply because they ask for a dose of mercury in urine or hair from their patients so they can see that the body is overwhelmed by this heavy metal. I say, are themselves (dentists) who are more susceptible to poisoning by mercury vapor inhalation during the removal of amalgam
Any doctor knows averagely informed of the devastating effects that heavy metals brought to the body. Mercury seriously affects the nervous system, kidney, connective tissue, etc.. Hundreds of doctors who take seriously the risks of dental amalgam, has managed to deliver a large number of patients with degenerative conditions like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, multiple sclerosis, collagen diseases, and migraines, endocrine, and a large number of functional changes through the removal of the amalgam and mercury detoxification.
The dentists can no longer be hidden behind the so-called advantage dentistry amalgam and support técnicopoliticoinstitucional the American Association of Dentists (ADA) has offered. In the first case, the quality of a material under the terms of dentistry, you can not take precedence over their toxicity. In the second case, we know that the uncompromising defense of amalgam by the ADA is actually a defensive action, because we can calculate the consequences for American dentists, the ADA case will admit that amalgam is really a toxic material, capable of causing disease such as those listed above. It would be a nightmare. Thousands of people enter compensation claims.
Today there is plenty of anti-amalgam literature. Countries such as Sweden, Denmark, Germany, already prohibit their use. Still, many dentists continue deploying this material without seeking to inquire about the work of their colleagues to show the serious risks posed by this material.
dental amalgam fillings in some countries calls for fillings "silver", contains 50% mercury. In chemistry, the mercury is called the Latin word hydrargyrum Hg. Mercury is the only metal that evaporates at room temperature. The mercury is mixed with other metals such as silver, tin, copper and sometimes zinc and form a solution that hardens quickly. The amalgam is a solid solution (mixture) and not a chemical compound.
Today we have members from all sectors of society, including dentistry, medicine and various scientific sectors. Our members have reported for over 10 years experience of their symptoms, treatments, and dental materials. Our member dentists, doctors and scientists have provided ideas, reports of investigations and proposed practices for the rehabilitation of individuals with amalgam poisoning.
We now have considerable experience and can provide some guidance to people suspect they were poisoned by their dental amalgam fillings. The term
amalgam poisoning is more relevant than the term mercury poisoning, because the amalgam contains not only mercury but also copper, tin, silver and sometimes zinc.
mercury is by far the most toxic component of the amalgam, but the other components can contribute to lead poisoning. The copper and tin is significantly toxic reactions can cause the immune system. Tin is transformed into organic tin compounds highly toxic in the environment and the same process may occur in the human body. Silver is highly toxic to bacteria. Their intestinal bacteria are exposed daily to a lot of both silver and mercury, which was found to induce bacterial resistance to metals as well to antibiotics.
An experienced practitioner can give you good care, but while the cause of the disease - dental amalgam fillings - stay on your teeth, most drugs only relieve the symptoms without curing the disease. They may, however, alleviate some problems during removal of amalgam and make life bearable.
can be expected to increase their symptoms during the removal of amalgam. Every time that a shutter is removed you will be exposed to mercury. The degree of reaction depends very much on the precautions taken by the dentist. The end result, however, is remarkably positive. The health of most patients will improve significantly. If the amalgam removal is not performed with the necessary precautions, there may be no recovery.
mercury poisoning causes a disease polysymptomatic. If you have only one or some of the symptoms described below, these can be caused by mercury, but other factors could also be responsible. Think back and try to remember how and when their problems began on possible links with dental treatment and changes in your life. You also may be exposed to mercury from other sources other than amalgam fillings. The more you are exposed at home or at work?
Your chances will improve considerably if you:
choose materials that are less toxic
can find a dentist with the proper protective equipment
change your fillings in the minimum recommended
regularly take their antioxidants
follow other steps recommended in this booklet
SYMPTOMS OF POISONING AMALGAM
mercury amalgam enters the body through inhalation of vapor, to swallow pieces worn amalgam through the absorption of metal vapor and dissolved by the oral mucosa and direct migration through the tooth into the tissue. Mercury, especially in the form of steam, is distributed across all parts of your body, affecting important cellular functions such as: cell metabolism, the salt balance between the inner walls and external cell as well as many important functions of enzymes.
The effects of brief exposure to high doses of mercury, as well as prolonged daily exposures to small amounts, have been documented for centuries. The amalgam poisoning is often caused by chronic exposure since childhood and even before (prenatal exposure) and exhibitions related to additional, more intensive placement or removal of amalgam. And complementing, almost all people have had contact with various compounds of mercury in vaccines (as preservatives), medicines (obsolete) in broken thermometers, paintings, etc..
Avoid medications, contact lens solutions, etc.. Containing mercury (eg merthiolate or thimerosal as a preservative). Be wary when you read the fine-mer-or hydrarg. Know the medicines Orientals, the homeopathic and chemicals can also contain mercury.
Over time, the individual will develop an increased hypersensitivity to mercury. Dental work, such as a golden crown placed on top of an amalgam restoration (severe corrosion!), Can accelerate serious health problems.
The most prominent symptoms, as well as the type of specialist consulted, usually determine the patient's medical diagnosis - if there will be a diagnosis. The other symptoms that do not fit within the standard, will be ignored and the patient usually hesitate to mention them. If you describe about 30 symptoms, which is not an unusual amalgam poisoning, you will usually be regarded as a mental patient. You're not! Are you suffering from a chronic poisoning by mercury. Exposure to mercury causes psychiatric symptoms in conjunction with various other problems. Suicidal thoughts are not uncommon. These are caused by mercury and aggravated by the negative attitude towards the patient.
The variety of symptoms is typical for a mercury poisoning. There may be other substances in the environment that may cause the same kinds of symptoms, should be considered especially metals such as lead, cadmium, copper, iron, aluminum or solvents.
However, the likelihood that mercury poisoning from amalgam is the cause of their problems is great if:
your mouth is full of fillings,
you have amalgam with gold,
treatments have channels with metal studs,
have health problems that may be related to dental work
Common symptoms:
Muscle aches and joint pain
Exhaustion, fatigue
Dizziness, vertigo
Headaches, migraine

A special problem is that some people poisoned by amalgam develop a remarkable sensitivity to electromagnetic fields and often the fluorescent lamps. Certain heavy metals like mercury increase the effects of various types of radiation and can cause skin sensitivity to light.
The problem is probably more linked to the formation of free radicals (see the chapter on free radicals). Antioxidants and the removal of amalgam (and all metals in the mouth!) Usually help, but the allergy is an electrical the most persistent problems. It seems that it decreases very slowly.
Know that pulsed magnetic fields induce currents symmetrical non-corrosive in amalgam fillings and raise considerably the release of mercury from fillings. A computer terminal produces such pulses.
Certain chronic conditions also may be caused by a virus, infections transmitted by ticks, by genetic defects or nutritional deficiencies. The deficiency or increased need for vitamins and micronutrients may be offset by increased administration. Knowing exactly what is the shortage is complicated and often impossible. The solution is to increase the administration in general. Most vitamins are not toxic, even at high doses. The only exceptions are vitamins A, D and K.
If you have not been subjected to a thorough medical exam, you should consult a doctor so that other possible dangerous diseases can be excluded. The doctor may prescribe drugs that may be helpful.
You should not accept medical diagnoses that do not define anything. Most diagnoses are just names for collections of symptoms that occur together and that are also common in other patients. An infection by a virus or a specific vitamin deficiency diagnoses are true. The rheumatism, migraine or psychosomatic problems, for example, are diagnoses that tell you nothing about the true cause of disease. We have had numerous patients with these diagnoses who responded positively to the removal of amalgam.
Experiments show that the above mentioned symptoms tend to decrease after removal of amalgam. Experience in other countries is identical. The same symptoms are caused by mercury in industry and the use of mercury drugs in early.
In general, individuals often poisoned by mercury given a wrong diagnosis.
DEVELOPMENT OF DISEASE
The primary symptoms of mercury poisoning are vague psychic symptoms. Recent memories disappear. You will find it difficult to concentrate on tasks requiring attention and reflection. It is easier to perform tasks that are less well known than learning something new. You avoid social contacts which demand that you leave your introverted behavior. You easily lose his cool and switches between different states of mind for no apparent reason.
Shortly before long, a more physical kind of exhaustion will be added to this condition. More and more efforts are needed to initiate activities. You become clumsy in their craft and sometimes break things due to the inability to coordinate their movements with their visual impressions (ataxia). Occasional headaches, minor involuntary muscle spasms or spasms in muscle groups may also appear. Hands and feet become easily cold, attacks can occur dizzy or lightheaded and periodically may encounter difficulties in focusing your eyes and see clearly.
Joint pain and muscles, stiffness, lumbago and similar symptoms often appear at an early stage. They can be caused or developed by low levels of micronutrient selenium. Cardiac changes, sometimes accompanied by a weak pulse, sometimes by a strong pulse, creates a feeling of anxiety. You do not sleep well, you wake up stiff and never feel rested. In total, you have the need to sleep more than before, and you're constantly tired.
The more intoxicated you are, the more serious and chronic problems become yours. The pituitary gland is affected, what many often leads to frequent urination.
When the thyroid gland is affected, there may be side effects on metabolism. Both glands accumulate mercury. Neurological symptoms such as numbness, hypersensitivity and paralysis worsen. It is often difficult to determine if the cause is in the nervous system or circulatory system.
DIAGNOSIS AND METHODS OF TEST
If you suffer from one or only some of the symptoms mentioned, mercury poisoning is less likely. On the other hand, if you have several of the symptoms described and many amalgam fillings in your mouth, the probability of a mercury poisoning is considerably higher. The link between dental work and the symptoms can serve as your guide. Even if the diagnosis is vague and based on a set of probabilities, the patient will quickly discover if it is on track when removing amalgam or gold amalgam +.
Removal of amalgam can be considered as a test of provocation, because it is often followed by worsening symptoms. The reaction may not occur if the dentist is extremely careful and provide good protection measures.
Severe cases can hardly be wrong. Often There is a direct link in time between symptom development and application of Gold + amalgam of studs in canals, bridges over the gold amalgam and polishing of amalgam fillings. Unfortunately there is still no single method of laboratory analysis, such as a blood test for diagnosing mercury poisoning. Analyses are still being developed.
The same applies to almost all types of poisoning. If there are symptoms indicating intoxication, and a history of exposure to a toxic product that could be causing this, it is certainly more likely that the cause is poisoning than anything else.
The most important point is to prevent additional exposures to toxic product as quickly as possible.
