Ya gotta get up early to to get one step ahead of Jan.

Subject: Why.....

>Why the dentists on SMD don't respond to Jan Drew

In a nut shell, because they can't answer my pointed questions.

For instance, Dan couldn't, but LIED and said he did.

>Jan Drew claims to be a retired Day Care owner and to have finished High

Correction:

I post the research and scientific proof and studies.

That ruffles the feathers of the dentists here, ALL except Steve Bornfeld who
is the ONLY honest dentist here.

>because they are evidentially beyond her capacity to understand.

Uh huh.

Time for this again.

(A bit of background, Dan was raising a fuss about abstracts, then got cuagh in
his on trap, of diversion. I posted the below and asked the dsntist to answer
my questions, two did, but didn't continue to discuss when more pointed
questions were asked. Dan didn't discuss at all, he did his usual Joel syndrome
nonsense thing, which teling me all about his education)

body burden from dental amalgam.Reinhardt JW.Department of Operative Dentistry,
University of Iowa College of Dentistry,Iowa City 52242.

The purpose of this paper is to examine and report on studies that relate
mercury levels in human tissues to the presence of dental amalgams, giving
special attention to autopsy studies. Until recently, there have been
fewpublished studiesexamining the relationship between dental amalgams and
tissue mercury levels. Improved and highly sensitive tissue analysis techniques
have made it possible to measure elements in the concentration range of parts
per billion. The fact that mercury can be absorbed and reach toxic levels in
humantissues makes any and all exposure to that element of scientificinterest.

Dental amalgams have long been believed to be of little significance as
contributors to the overall body burden of mercury, because the elemental form
of mercury is rapidly consumed in the setting reaction of the restoration

.Studies showing measurable elemental mercury vapor release from dental
amalgams have raised renewed concern about amalgam safety.

Mercury vapor absorption occurs through the lungs, with about 80% of the
inhaled vapor being absorbed by the lungs and rapidly entering the bloodstream.

Following distribution by blood circulation, mercury can enter and remain in
certain tissues for longer periods of time, since the half-life of excretion is
prolonged.

Two of the primary arget organs of concern are the central nervous system and
kidneys.

The fate of mercury (Hg) released from dental "silver" amalgam tooth fillings
into human mouth air is uncertain. A previous report about sheep revealed
uptake routes and distribution of amalgam Hg among body tissues. The
present investigation demonstrates the bodily distribution of amalgam Hg in a
monkey whose dentition, diet, feeding regimen, and chewing pattern closely
resemble those of humans.

When amalgam fillings, which normally contain 50% Hg, are made with a tracer of
radioactive 203Hg and then placed into monkey teeth, the isotope appears in
high concentration in various organs and tissues within 4wk. Whole-body images
of the monkey revealed that the highest levels of Hg werel ocated in the
kidney, gastrointestinal tract, and jaw.

You see, this is just an example of why I had the metal removed. I did my own
research and it matters not whether it comes from an abstract or a study.

I would like to hear the answers from ALL dentists here, and I will even remove
my block from Joel and see if he can answer without blathering.

ONE AND ALL SHOW US *YOUR* EDUCATION!!!

>Instead she has embraced Alternative treatments, Hulda Clark's writings and

The Misinformation comes from the lying ADA and AMA. and those here who are of

*I-don't-want-to-be-informed-attitude*

What I did. was looked at reasearch and made the decision to get the metal
removed, AFTER I had gone throught the gamut of conventional medicine WITH NO

Wrong. I call lies when there are lies, and I prove it with the posters own
words. The FACT is; lying is rampant here.

LOL.

Dan does a great deal of insulting, as well as the others dentists and suck
ups.

>more regrettably others have stooped down to her level.

All can see who does the insulting, who is childish and who stoops to their OWN
low levels.

. Unfortunately, this has been the only effective way to interact with her.

Well, no, it is a CHOICE, and it happens because my pointed questions can't be
answered, and the insults flow.

The bible isn't a  trump card. I did indeed quote from it when necessary.

>Most of the professionals posting here aren't playing her card game anymore.

I have never played games here however, that's exactly what the dentists and
suck ups do, when they can't answer pointed questions.

They aren't *MY* views, the websites are written by researchers, chemists,

Does mercury from amalgam restorations constitute a health hazard?

Weiner JA, Nylander M, Berglund F.

National Board of Occupational Safety and Health, Solna, Sweden.

Amalgam is the most extensively used implant material in dentistry. There have
been no clinical trials of this substance and there are no epidemiological
studies that allow any conclusions on the safety of amalgam fillings. Amalgam
restorations continuously emit mercury vapour, which is absorbed in
considerable quantities via the lungs. A comparison with dose-effect
relationships, obtained in occupational studies, for certain effects on the
kidneys and central nervous system (CNS), suggests that individuals with
unusually high emission of mercury from amalgam fillings are at risk. It is
unclear whether or not clinically significant effects could be expected. The
limited sensitivity of available occupational studies, together with
insufficient knowledge of possible host factors affecting resistance to
mercury, implies that other more severe effects in susceptible individuals
cannot be excluded. Information on long-term effects on organs other than brain
or kidney is sparse. Animal studies suggest the possibility of immune system
reactions to mercury, i.e. development of autoimmunity, that are not primarily
dose-dependent, but rather depend on genetic susceptibility. From a
toxicological point of view, amalgam is an unsuitable material for dental
restorations.

Environmental medicine, part three: long-term effects of chronic low-dose
mercury exposure.

Crinnion WJ.

Healing Naturally, 11811 NE 128th St., Suite 202, Kirkland, WA 98034, USA.

Mercury is ubiquitous in the environment, and in our mouths in the form of
"silver" amalgams. Once introduced to the body through food or vapor, mercury
is rapidly absorbed and accumulates in several tissues, leading to increased
oxidative damage, mitochondrial dysfunction, and cell death. Mercury primarily
affects neurological tissue, resulting in numerous neurological symptoms, and
also affects the kidneys and the immune system. It causes increased production
of free radicals and decreases the availability of antioxidants. It also has
devastating effects on the glutathione content of the body, giving rise to the
possibility of increased retention of other environmental toxins. Fortunately,
effective tests are available to help distinguish those individuals who are
excessively burdened with mercury, and to monitor them during treatment.
Therapies for assisting the reduction of a mercury load include the use of
2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) and 2,3-dimercato-1-propanesulfonic acid
(DMPS). Additional supplementation to assist in the removal of mercury and to
reduce its adverse effects is discussed.

Don't let your traditional dentist fool you. Mercury is a poison and it has
absolutely no health reason to be in your mouth. None! It is an excellent
restoration material however, it is relatively inexpensive and lasts for
decades. This is far better than many of the composite alternatives.
