Improvements in health from removal of amalgams

http://www.heart-disease-bypass-surgery.com/data/articles/63.htm

Studies have demonstrated that the removal of dental mercury amalgam
fillings
can result in definitive and significant improvements in overall health
status.The Foundation for Toxic-Free Dentistry compiled data on 1,569
patients
from six different sources. Of particular interest in the FTFD analysis
report
isthe fact that 14% of patients experienced some form of allergic
symptomology
and that 89% reported that their condition had improved or was entirely
eliminated after removal of their silver/mercury dental amalgam
fillings.Systemic mercury toxicity appears to have a direct causal
relationship
to the development of allergic sensitivity to foods, chemicals and other
environmental factors.

Extrapolating the FTFD data to the approximately 140 million individuals
with
mercury dental amalgams in the U.S, there would be about 19.6million people
(14%) with mercury amalgam-related allergies, and, 89% or about17.4 million
people would experience the amelioration or disappearance of theirallergies
by
simply having their silver/ mercury dental amalgam fillings replaced with
non-mercury, hypoallergenic composite dental fillings.

We present a case of exercise-induced anaphylaxis with improvement following
the removal of dental amalgam. Although her symptoms were unresponsive to
various kinds of therapy until removal of the amalgam, her symptoms related
to
exercise improved remarkably after the removal. The increase in plasma
histamine levels for exercise provocation test also improved. This suggests
that sensitivity to metals might cause exercise-induced asthma in some
patients.

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.

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.
