DENTAL POISONING

Dental Poisoning I - MERCURY
The practice of fixing a deadly poison in multiple locations within the mouth is, surely, an act of madness. But this is exactly what most dentists do every day.

The American Dental Association (ADA) makes the protestations of safety which might be expected. Their basic response is that:

"No evidence of harm has been found."

However, mercury is a known poison. Why put it in your mouth when there are alternatives?

The answers are, I suppose:

So look at the evidence, use common sense; and don't put any more poisons in your mouth. Demand alternative fillings when you next have some - and pay extra for them if necessary.

Cancer Causing Agent
It is widely thought that fluoride may cause cancer.

The National Toxicology Programme in America was commissioned by the government to carry out a study into the relationship between fluoride and cancer.

Several toxicologists have said that the findings of the report show that there is a relationship - that fluoride does appear to make you more likely to develop cancer.

Other Reactions To Fluorine
There are plenty of anecdotal cases of reactions to fluoride.

For example, 9-year old Alysia Cooke started to get leg pains, flu-like symptoms, and headaches. Nothing could be found... until brown mottling on her teeth was noticed. She stopped using fluoride toothpaste - and the symptoms quickly disappeared.


Why Use A Chemical Whose Efficacy Is Questioned By Experts?
If you look at the evidence, fluoride has simply not been shown to be effective. And there are massive question marks over its safety.

However, it is so widely used now, that many people would lose face if it was to be withdrawn.

In fifty to a hundred years, putting fluoride in water and adding it to toothpaste will be seen - along with using mercury in fillings - for the disastrous mistake it surely is.


Quack-silver
By the way, the forerunners of today's chemists were called 'quacks' - the term more often used today for practitioners in natural medicine. The name 'quack' derived from 'quicksilver' - the common name for mercury.

Those early chemists has such trouble treating syphilis sores, that they would try anything to cure them - even putting poisons such as mercury, sulphur, and tar on the wounds.

It is ironic that practitioners in natural therapies are now called the 'quacks', whereas the regular medical and dental professions are still using poisons, such as mercury and the sulfonamide drugs - based on sulphur.


An Expert's Opinion
Phyllis J Mullenix Phd, a pharmacologist and toxicologist, is Head of the Toxicology Department at the Forsyth Dental Center, a world renowned dental research institution affiliated with the Harvard Medical School. She was angered by the inaccuracies contained in the Calgary Regional Health Authority's "Position Statement on Fluoridation". This statement reflects the sort of position taken by the professional organisations and government in both the UK and USA.

She wrote:

It would be wise to reflect on the views of this dental and toxicology expert before accepting your government's or dentist's insistence that you use fluoride for yourself or your family.

Fluoride has not been proven to be safe. It has been "assumed innocent until proven guilty" - a dangerous position for a chemical being force fed, in many cases, to an unaware public.

Fluorosilicates? What Are These?
Americans have an additional problem to face. Years ago, many authorities decided to substitute pharmaceutical grade sodium fluoride with industrial grade fluorosilicates - by-products of fertiliser production.

Why? Don't be silly - it's because it's much cheaper! Not only is this 'fluoride' in a different form from usual - it probably contains traces of other poisons such as arsenic and lead.

Chiropractor Barry Forbes has an article about this - read it at:
www.planetc1.com/cgi-bin/n/search.cgi?keyword=fluoride


Water Filters For Fluorine Removal?
Standard carbon water filters do not remove fluorine - the molecules are too small.

If it is added in your areas, you have to use a 'reverse osmosis' filter, or distill your water. Or stick to bottled.


How Do I Reduce Fillings?
And if you want to reduce dental caries - holes in the teeth - the answer is pretty simple:

It is sugar that causes holes in the teeth. Cut out added sugar and the occurrence of fillings almost disappears. Get sensible - get healthy - cut down on sugars in the diet.

I know it's hard to avoid refined sugar - I know it's even harder for your children. But at least ration your kids; don't let them have 'sucking' sweets, which expose the teeth to eroding sugars for extended periods; and get them to clean their teeth immediately afterwards as the cost of being allowed sweets.


My recommendation - whatever you do, don't ingest - or even apply - fluoride. Even if fluoride did prevent fillings (which is questionable) it would be better to have some fillings (non-mercury ones!) than risk poisoning yourself with what is probably a dangerous chemical.

And as for dentists - I know some lovely ones; but don't just believe (without researching it for yourself) that fluoride is safe. Remember, dentists also say that mercury (a known poison) is completely inert when inserted in teeth. Why on earth should it be? This, surely, is wishful thinking at its most extreme. Why take the risk of using this poison in the mouth?

I strongly recommend you research this topic for yourself. I predict you'll end up thinking the same as me.

...and the 'What Doctors Don't Tell You' issue for fluoridation is good - Vol 9/12, March 1999 (+44 1858 438894, mailto:wddty@zoo.co.uk ) We have no financial connection to them by the way, we just think it's a valuable magazine with some great - and well backed up - information.

Keep well - and keep those chemicals out of your body whenever you can! Especially the deadly poisons.
