I hope you'll someday find the money to get this done.
I did have a lot myself and it cost me around 3,000$ Canadian dollars to have them removed. I never regret it. Health is the most important thing and I felt like mercury amalgams were unacceptable. I wish you the best!
Well said @teamsteem so so worth it. Its SOOOSOSOSo sad that they were there to begin with but as you said it was worth it.
It sucks but its better to get it done ASAP and let your body function more properly.
Health is priceless and of the utmost importance!
Removing it is MUCH more dangerous than just leaving it there. It releases many small particles that you swallow or inhale.
I am stunned to see these prices. You should go to Asia. There are good clinics that do the job MUCH cheaper. Even if you include the price of the plane ticket! And that'll get you a free holiday!
I agree, Asia would probably be much cheaper. I'd love to go back there. My problem would be that I would have to bring my kids at least, so a trip to Hungary or anywhere in Eastern Europe would be a lot cheaper in my case.
Their prices are only about a quarter of what they charge in the West of Europe.
By the way I have a lovely dentist here in Ireland who is from Pakistan. He is very much aware of the toxins in pretty much anything he works with. I had to get urgent work done when my youngest son was only a few weeks old. Right away he asked if I was breastfeeding and he then gave me the time to breastfeed in the privacy of his office and pump as much as I could to prevent my son from ingesting the toxins from the anaesthesia. I'm not sure if any of my old dentists would have even asked.
They have never asked me that, but perhaps that has something to do with the fact that I am a man.
No seriously, I don't expect many dentists to think about that. You should stay with that dentist.
agreed :) He's also very much aware that I'm not the bravest when it comes to dentistry and he always manages to calm me down.
Thank @teamsteem you for your well wishes. I am sure I will. It's on top of my list and working hard to put away the needed funds. I'd say if I had the work done here in Ireland, it would come down to about the same amount as you mentioned it cost you. The 2 dentists who do it here are really milking their position I think, because only an initial intake just to see what is needed costs almost EUR 300,-. So I passed on that. In Hungary, the same job would cost me around EUR 1,000. Big difference. Yes, mercury amalgams are unacceptable. The funny thing is that I used to think it was rubbish to give someone silver coloured fillings when I was only about 12 or so. Although at the time I had no idea of course what was in it and what it could do to your body. But still I must have had some kind of sense that it was not a good thing to have.
