allergic to dental fillings?

Question

I was recently told that a person can be allergic to dental filling, and the stuff used in filling a a tooth after a root canal. if so does anyone know what type of reactions this could cause if a person was allergic? I've had 6 Root Canals since the first of the year and been highly sick since then.

Answer 1

THE INCIDENCE OF TRUE ALLERGY TO DENTAL MERCURY IN THE GENERAL POPULATION IS ABOUT 3%. THERE MAY BE A WHOLE PLETHORA OF SYMPTOMS WHICH CAN APPEAR AFTER AMALGAM FILLINGS. DENTAL AMALGAMS HAVE BEEN PLACED IN THE US FOR OVER 150 YEARS. IT DEPENDS IF YOU ARE ALLERGIC TO THE MATERIAL WHICH FILLS YOUR ROOT CANALS. IF THESE WERE FILLED WITH THE SARGENTI TECHNIQUE, FORMALDEHYDE WAS USED IN THESE CANALS. THESE MAY BE CAUSING YOUR HEALTH PROBLEMS.

Answer 2

I think what people usually mean is that you can be slowly poisoned by the mercury in the amalgam fillings. I have had mine removed and replaced with a plastic compound to see if my health will improve. I know that one day I lost an amalgam filling and assumed I'd swallowed it. I woke up in the night salivating copiously and wondered what was going on. Later I read in a book about mercury poisoning that it causes (amongst other things) copious saliva, so my mystery was solved! Hope you can get some good help from a holistic doctor. I know that heavy metals can be removed from your system by intravenous chelation, but you'd need to talk to your doctor about that and I'm not sure if it would work if you kept the fillings you've got. Good luck.

I trimmed and polished it very intently at a next bypass to to confirm that it grew to become into no longer a mechanical inflammation and it did no longer help. i ended up changing it with a silver filling and he or she has been fantastic. the factor is, a similar factor handed off on the different area of her mouth in the different know-how enamel. We desperate that she's have been given an hypersensitivity and that i visit no longer use the white fillings the place there will be dissimilar touch along with her gums. thankfully, she does not have too many cavities... of direction, her reaction grew to become into extremely interior of sight and constrained to the area of touch. Your reaction ought to be simply by a sensitivity to the gloves or glove powder or, sure, it ought to be accident and additionally you're reacting to a minimum of something else, alongside with something you ate.
