HEALTH BioDental Healing By Dr. David Villarreal Your Immune System is at Risk with the Wrong Dental Filling Material... And Protective Protocols are Paramount for Silver Filling Removal M Most people don’t realize that their fillings can be highly dangerous to their overall health. W e have decapitated the patient and forgot that what we place in a person’s mouth has a direct effect on their immune system via the meridian pathways. If someone has a silver filling, that person’s body is burdened by the mercury content in those fillings. If they have a porcelain crown, they might have a nickel-based metal. Mercury and  nickel are the heaviest metals on this planet - and mercury is the most toxic. That being said, we are adding another burden to our bodies, which already have to deal with so many other burdens like diet, environmental pollutions, and stress!! 28 | NEW CONSCIOUSNESS REVIEW Bio-compatible dentistry is the cutting edge of holistic healthcare. We do a blood test for dental material reactivity. Reactivity is the amount of change that occurs within the immune system when it is subjected to a foreign substance like dental materials. Once we test and have the information, we are attempting to use a material that is the “least” reactive to that person’s personal immune system. Here in our office in Southern California, we have removed more than 20,000 “silver fillings”-which have as much as 50% mercury. But the traditional way of removing them is potentially a problem. Is it ok to bite into a thermometer? No, because of the mercury it contains. Then why is it ok just to drill out a silver filling, allowing the patient to swallow some of it -- even using high speed suction? Strict protocols protect the patient, dentist, staff and the environment. When we do mercury filling removal, we wear special gear, including two-valve gas masks, gloves and contamination-free coverings. The patient is provided complete draping and protective eyewear. We then lay a rubberized protective covering in the mouth that segregates the excise area from the rest of the soft tissue and teeth. As the drilling
