Dental amalgam mercury fillings are the greatest source of
mercury for the adults who have them. DAMS (Dental Amalgam Mercury Solutions)
is a leading non-profit group educating the public on this issue in the
DAMS is prepared to show you the scientific evidence against amalgam mercury fillings; it can help guide you to SAFE amalgam filling removal, if that is your chosen path, and it can help you choose “best choice” replacement materials, safe detoxification methods and avoid fluoride and other toxic pitfalls in dentistry.
Dental amalgam fillings act as a time-release poison – the poison is mercury, aided and abetted by other toxic metals, namely copper, tin, silver and zinc (all toxic in their elemental forms). Early symptoms of amalgam / mercury toxicity include fatigue, low thyroid function (sluggishness, weight gain, loss of sex drive, rough skin, weakened immunity, and more), and depression (including anxiety, panic attacks, shyness, irritability, unprovoked anger). Mercury and mercury amalgams tend to promote fungal yeast infections, which can show up as indigestions and bloating, ear and sinus infections, vaginal yeast infections, toenail fungus, psoriasis, brain fog, short-term memory problems. While all of these problems tend to show up more in the middle years, they are increasingly common among college student populations and even younger. Rarely will a physician think to ask what kind of fillings have been placed in the patient’s teeth and, in ignorance (since they didn’t learn about mercury poisoning in medical school), may even scoff at the patient who is concerned about mercury poisoning from dental amalgam fillings. (“If I didn’t learn about it in medical school, it isn’t real.”)
SAFE AMALGAM REMOVAL DAMS is ready to send you a list of knowledgeable dentists (and, perhaps, physicians) in your state who are able to replace amalgams safely. Your list will be zip code sorted (or, postal code sorted, for your Canadian province) so you can more easily find the ones in your area. With your lists, you will receive a Dental Health Guide that discusses the amalgam problem (signs and symptoms), safe amalgam removal (elaborate precautions are needed so that you don’t get more severely mercury poisoned !!!), choosing “best choice” dental materials, root canals, proper tooth extraction, what to replace a missing tooth with, detoxification for heavy metal poisoning, and the fluoride menace. This Guide and list are worth their weight in gold. They are not currently available by e-mail, so please provide your name and mailing address and we will send it right out. DAMS also publishes a periodic newsletter, Dental Truth, and you may request a sample of that.

DAMS has one of the most comprehensive web sites regarding the hazards of mercury and dental amalgam mercury fillings. It summarizes the scientific case against amalgam fillings, and is a good reference for researchers and for students who are researching term papers or debates. Please go to the web site www.flcv.com/indexa.html. If you wish to purchase books on dental mercury, fluoride or other dental-health topics, please call or e-mail to the DAMS office. The office has a sizable selection of original scientific papers as well as books and DVD videos on these topics. Again, 1-651-644-4572
