Dentistry scams exposed: mercury fillings and unnecessary dental surgery

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
Most dentists, like many doctors, believe in outrageous myths like the idea that putting mercury, one of the most toxic substances known to man, into the mouths of patients is perfectly safe. Dentists also routinely promote the ludicrous idea that dripping fluorosilicic acid, a toxic waste product sometimes called "fluoride," into public water supplies somehow reduces cavities in children. And thus, like most practitioners of conventional medicine, dentists subscribe to a near-religious belief in several health-related falsehoods. The mercury fillings issue is one of the most outrageous.

Study "Disproving" Mercury-Autism Link Published in Journal with Financial Ties to Vaccine Manufacturers

Notice that when mercury was removed from vaccines (which is not entirely true, by the way, bringing into question yet more details about this study), the rates of autism did not drop? This means the vaccines remain dangerous to children. Autism continued to climb right alongside vaccination rates, indicating the possibility that something in the vaccines (or a combination of various chemicals) may very well be responsible for the increase.

Many people wonder about mercury contamination in wild fish. Some species, such as swordfish, have high levels of mercury. If you buy fish that are lower on the food chain, you'll have less exposure to mercury. mercury is toxic only in the absence of selenium, an essential dietary mineral. If you take selenium supplements or get 200 meg of it in a multivitamin-multimineral supplement, it should protect you. If you eat seafood judiciously, and you can do so two to four times weekly, the benefits outweigh the risks.

They acknowledge the alarming increase in the rates of autism now being observed in the population, but with this new study, they claim, "Mercury is safe!" Let me add this study to the enormous stack of other B.S. studies from modern medical researchers. Let's see, I have a study here that declares aspartame to be safe. A second study in my database says that Vioxx is safe. Another study says Teflon is safe. And yet another study claims that cigarette smoke doesn't cause lung cancer or heart disease! In fact, for virtually every toxic chemical created by industry, there's a B.S.
I can't wait to see what headlines will come next: "Prescription Drugs That Killed Patients Found Innocent Since Patients Did Not Come Back to Life After the Drugs Were Removed" Or: "Radiation From Mammograms Found Harmless Because Death Rates Continued to Climb Even After Mammography was Halted" Or my favorite: "Ephedra Herb Banned After Ten Deaths; Drugs Are Safer Because They Only Kill 100,000 Americans a Year" I'm beginning to wonder if all the journalists have been injected with mercury.
How does a study focused only on mercury "reject the idea that immunizations boost autism rates?" Did the author of that report not notice that autism rates continue to increase as vaccination rates go up? Eliminating one chemical from the causative factors does not in any way clear the safety of all the other chemicals or ingredients used in vaccines.
While mercury injections probably initiated the increase in autism, the toxic substance has been replaced with other dangerous chemicals that are continuing to increase the risk of autism. Here's an example to explain this a bit more: We all know that sodium nitrite in processed meat causes cancer, right? Well, let's say that for ten years, somebody feeds all the kids sodium nitrite and cancer rates skyrocket. Then, they take all the sodium nitrite out of the food and replace it with a different cancer-causing chemical that they keep feeding the kids. Guess what?
By default, I distrust the drug companies and any so-called "research" that claims injecting mercury into the bodies of children is harmless. That should be the default position held by any rational person who understands basic human biochemistry. Toxic chemicals and heavy metals must be distrusted from the outset. The drug and chemical industries, notably, take precisely the opposite approach. To them, all chemicals and drugs are safe until proven dangerous.

Place mercury into the mouths of your little children by having their cavities filled with "silver" fillings (made with 40% mercury, a potent neurotoxin). Result: Widespread mercury toxicity in children, resulting in a sharp increase in neurological conditions, including behavioral disorders, infertility and autism. Ignorant, obstinate dentists continue to use mercury fillings today, and the American Dental Association remains in full support of this extremely dangerous heavy metal that results in the mass poisoning of children. Your kid have a cold?

Interview with Dr. Hank Liers Part 3: Chemical sensitivities and chlorella detoxification

One of the most interesting findings in research with autistic children is the role of mercury. Many experts clearly feel that mercury is a major problem in autism. You cannot get the mercury out with anything that is known. You try to and do DMSA and whatever, and they cannot get it out. They have found that viruses sequestered the heavy metals, and that the viruses were hard to get out of the body. Well, it turns out that RNA is a tremendous anti-viral substance. Dr. Gary Gordon was giving these RNA factors to autistic children and knocking out the viruses and then getting the mercury detox.

Forced Vaccinations = Crimes Against Children

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger

Those same dentists -- all of whom should have their dental licenses revoked, by the way -- continue to place mercury into the mouths of children through the use of "silver fillings" (which, in reality, contain more mercury than silver), inducing a lifetime of mercury poisoning. By any honest measure of psychological health, these doctors, dentists and health authorities who promote mandatory vaccinations, water supply fluoridation and mercury fillings are nothing less than clinically insane. By any honest legal measure, they might be considered criminally negligent for their actions.

Even the EnergyStar division of the Environmental Protection Agency -- while admitting on its website that CFLs contain mercury -- stops short of calling a broken CFL "hazardous." Like most proponents of CFLs, EnergyStar fails to mention the long-term dangers to the environment and the short-term dangers to well-meaning consumers who accidentally break a compact fluorescent light bulb.

You might want to get a second opinion, because I've been walking around with mercury in my mouth for a couple of years, thinking it was gone. So Dr. Swidler said, "Let's take it out," and on the next visit he proceeded to do so. First he gave me 3,000 mg of vitamin C. This is to boost the antioxidants in your system and help nutritionally protect you from the mercury. Knowing something about chlorella and superfoods, I also took chlorella before that appointment, because chlorella binds with heavy metals and prevents them from being absorbed by your system.

Dentistry scams exposed: mercury fillings and unnecessary dental surgery

REPPED: Modern dentistry is a curious branch of conventional medicine, and like much of conventional medicine, it offers a strange mixture of both helping people (improving dental health) while harming them (filling cavities with mercury). Most dentists, like many doctors, believe in outrageous myths like the idea that putting mercury, one of the most toxic substances known to man, into the mouths of patients is perfectly safe.
They just want to be able to continue using mercury fillings based on the ADA-accepted consensus lie that mercury is somehow inert and never leaves fillings. The great wisdom teeth removal scam I'm one of those rare persons who still has all his wisdom teeth. This gives me more teeth than most people, and I have yet to meet a dentist (other than a natural health dentist) who didn't immediately suggest surgery to remove them. Dentists' desire to remove wisdom teeth is entirely irrational.

Some fish contain high levels of a form of mercury called methylmercury that may harm an unborn child's developing brain if eaten regularly. These findings are controversial, since recent research suggests this mercury is not as harmful as usual mercury. Still, almost all fish contain trace amounts of methylmercury, through small quantities are not harmful to humans and it is eliminated from your body over time. But long-lived, larger fish accumulate the highest levels of methylmercury and pose a greater potential risk to you and your unborn child.

Nearly all fish contain trace amounts of methyl mercury. In most cases, this is of little concern because the level is so low. The fish most likely to have the lowest level of methyl mercury are salmon (usually undetectable levels), cod, mackerel, cold-water tuna, farm-raised catfish, and herring. Certain seafood, particularly swordfish, shark, and some other large predatory fish, may contain high levels of methyl mercury. Choose from the low-mercury group and limit your intake to no more than four servings per week maximum.

It has the lowest level of mercury in it. I'm one who is very concerned about mercury in our food chain and how we are exposed to it. We know as humans how much disease it can create. It does the same thing in our animals. One of the biggest problems is vaccinosis, which are reactions to vaccines. The biggest thing they react to in the vaccine is the mercury, which acts as a stabilizer. We know there are species of fish with very high levels of mercury, depending on where they are caught. So, we made great strides in making that fishmeal, because it is very important to have that fishmeal.

Choose from the low-mercury group and limit your intake to no more than four servings per week maximum. Adding a high-quality fish oil supplement free of the mercury, PCBs, dioxins, and other contaminants often found in fish to your daily routine provides extra insurance that you are getting sufficient levels of omega-3 fatty acids. Take enough of the supplement to provide 1,000mg daily of the key omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA.

The Big Fat Health and Fitness Lie

Sounds reasonable, but while the Institute of Medicine's Food and Nutrition Board recommends avoiding food with more than 2 parts per million (ppm) of lead and 1 ppm of mercury, there are no federal standards about lead and mercury content in supplements.26 Again, there are no federal standards about lead and mercury content in supplements. This is absolute insanity. In adults, high levels of lead cause kidney problems and high blood pressure. In children, lead affects the brain and nervous system. It can also decrease hearing and cause hyperactivity and seizures.

As a follow up to this, it's interesting to note there are still many dentists in this country who are putting mercury into people's mouths. I find that absolutely appalling. It's something that should be relegated to the dark ages of modern dentistry. Then again, dentists are also many of the same people who are still promoting the ingestion of a highly toxic chemical called fluorosilicic acid, which is sourced from the waste products of smoke stacks and industrial incinerators.
