I have to have a cracked amalgam filling removed (my appointment is in two days). I am very concerned about the mercury exposure for myself and of course for my son who is 11 months old and exclusivley breastfed. I am especially concerned because he has eczema since he was 7 mo. and feel now that him and I probably have some issues with leaky gut. I had these fillings put in when he was about 4 months old, it never occured to me for some reason that it would affect him and I was caught off guard when I got the dentists office, not expecting them to use amalgams.
Anyways, I have to have this replaced, the tooth is hurting, and I fear there may be an increased mercury exposure from the cracked filling. I can't afford to go to a dentist that specializes in the removal of them, it's just not an option right now. I started taking lots of vitamin c. and chlorella, I've read you can take activated charcoal afterwards. I guess I'm looking for any ideas on what I can take to help remove the mercury as well as things I can do to keep the exposure to a minimal (both myself and things I can ask the dentist to do). Thanks so much in advance.
