Results of dental amalgam removal and mercury detoxification using DMPS and neural therapy.
Kidd RF.
Sixty consecutive patients who had undergone replacement of dental amalgam fillings and a protocol of nutritional support and heavy metal detoxification using dimercapto-propanyl-sulfate and neural therapy were surveyed. A questionnaire was mailed to the patients and 42 responded, resulting in a response rate of 70%. The reasons for undergoing treatment were many, ranging from a patient's desire to avoid potential health problems in the future to treatment of serious current disease. Although medical diagnoses were made when possible before treatment, this survey studied only the patients' estimations of their most distressing symptoms and their evaluations of response to treatment. The most common complaints were problems with memory and/or concentration; muscle and/or joint pain; anxiety and insomnia; stomach, bowel, and bladder complaints; depression; food or chemical sensitivities; numbness or tingling; and eye symptoms, in descending order of frequency. The most distressing symptoms were headache and backache, fatigue, and memory and concentration problems. Headache and backache responded best to treatment, but all symptoms showed considerable improvement on average. Of the respondents, 78% reported that they were either satisfied or very satisfied with the results of treatment, and 9.5% reported that they were disappointed.

Not saying you are wrong, just that your case was inconclusive because so many things went on at the same time.

I believe that although fish was the main source of my poisoning, 22 old and many large amalgams, played a role in my poisoning. Add to that the exacerbation I had in symptomology after every amalgam removal - this is my definitive conclusion.

Especially those copper/palladium ones, they are nasty as sh.t. I don't want to get into a big discussion here, but I think it's a huge mistake to think that all amalgams are the same. Did you ever check your dental records or question the dentist who placed them?
Steven Fawks - 08 Dec 2004 16:20 GMT I would not say this is typical. I see amalgams that are 20-50 years old every day that are not 'coming apart'. I get to monitor a few of the ones that I placed from 1979-1984 also. I've rarely needed to replace any. I mainly used Tytin®.
Amalgams do fail. Usually it's related to recurrent decay (have I ever mentioned soft drinks?). Sometimes a crack forms in the tooth and part of the tooth breaks away from the filling.
Overall, I have been very impressed with the durability of *most* dental work. There are a few dips that couldn't place a decent restoration if their life depended on it and there are a few materials that leave a lot to be desired. There are also a few patients who develop cavities about as fast as I can fix them (have I ever mentioned soft drinks?).
JME, Fawks

I forgot you said this shame on you Tony! I cite many solid refereences in my testimony, many that even the DDS's here have not disputed. Read our whole discussion below, those who wish to, and come to your own conclusion.

We had a civil discussion after I started it rather uncivilly, and as I have written before, I respect your willingness to discuss these matters rationally. We may not agree, but I have no personal issues with you. Again, I apologize for that comment.
