So .. you got a hole in your tooth because you eat too much sugar crap. And they fill it with amalgam. Amalgam doesn't chemically bond to your tooth, so they need to drill out a giant wedge shape into your tooth, weakening it, so the filling can stay there. Great !
Amalgam is usually a cocktail of metals combined with mercury (50% mercury content). Mercury in extremely toxic even in very small doses, and in larger doses can be fatal. But the mercury in the fillings is stable right ? Well no, they leak, constantly, not small amounts either.

Chuck in 10 amalgam fillings into someone's mouth and that's gonna start having a major effect on someone's health. But the nightmare doesn't stop there with simply the toxicity of the metal. You can also be allergic to the metal. You see the metal ions can bind to your own bodies proteins. The body sometimes then recognises cells with metals ions bound to them as foreign, and so attacks them. Then you get arthritis, or for people with CFS often get encephalitis of the brain. Or some other auto immune disease. It's not just the mercury in the fillings which can do this, it's any of the cocktail of metals in there that eventually leak out. Even gold fillings are not safe. Gold is a very soft metal, so they mix it with others to make it stronger.
Theres science behind this as well.
Check this for example
A study published in 2004 examines the health impact of amalgam replacement in mercury-allergic patients with autoimmunity. The patients, who suffered from different autoimmune diseases, were selected on the basis of an existing allergy to mercury (diagnosed with MELISA® testing) and also that they had amalgam fillings as the single restorative material in their teeth. The amalgam was replaced with composites and ceramic materials. Half a year later, MELISA® was re-done to see if there had been any change in the original positive response. Also, the heath status was measured by objective tests and the patient's gave a subjective opinion on whether their health had improved. Download the full article (pdf).
The results showed that the in vitro reactivity after the replacement of amalgam decreased significantly to inorganic mercury, silver, organic mercury and lead. Out of 35 patients, 71% showed improvement of health. The remaining patients exhibited either unchanged health or worsening of symptoms. Interestingly enough, their responses to mercury didn't decrease - which suggests that there exists a different source of exposure than amalgam. Patients with multiple sclerosis observed the highest rate of improvement while the lowest rate was noted in patients with eczema.

If that wasn't bad enough, what if the tooth then dies. Ah yes, root canal. Root canal is safe right ? Well .. err, no.
Root canal is done exactly the same way as it was done, 100 years ago, same material to seal it gutta percha, same technique etc. Anyway the guy that was described as the greatest dentist of all time undertook a massive 20 year research program in about the 20's to investigate the safety of root canal teeth. What did he find ? Root canal teeth can cause chronic disease.
So here's some pics from colgate.com showing how they do root canal
Ah right cool, but wait. How do you seal off the lateral canals at the bottom ? Err .. you can't, best to forget about those.
And err, what about the dentin ? the hart part of the tooth under the enamel ? How do you fill that ?
err, you can't. It's impossible, it's also impossible to sterilise them. So you've created a space for billions of bacteria to live, and the immune system can't get to them, and the toxins from the root canal teeth can defuse out of the surface of the tooth, into the ligaments and into your jaw, causing major disease.
You can find out about dr price's work on root canal teeth by looking here

(I had a root canal tooth removed 5 months ago, it caused no pain no swelling, really it felt fine, looked perfect on x-ray, but when the dentist took it out all the bone around it was mush. It had been there 15 years, it was having a pretty devastating effect on my health.)
Okay, so root canal is a bad idea. Just get the tooth pulled right ? Well err no. You see when you pull a tooth, the majority of the time it never heals properly because the ligaments aren't removed, what happens is bone grows over the top leaving an actual hole in your jaw bone, called a cavitation. Heres some sexy pics.
Looks normal right ?
Okay let's dive in.
err what's going on.
Uh oh, we have uncovered a toxic hole. Anaerobic bacteria are always present in cavitations. The toxins from these bacteria are extremely toxic and damaging to you. These toxins slowly leech out into your blood stream.
So what are the chances of getting a cavitation ?
According to
Journal of Advancement in Medicine
Volume 9, Number 4, Winter 1996
© 1996 Human Sciences Press, Inc.
the chances are ..
The most commonly extracted teeth, the third molars ("wisdom teeth"), produced CVs that were found by clinical exploration in 313 out of 354 extraction sites (88%). Cavitations were found in 35 of 50 second molar extraction sites (70%), and for first molars, 60 of 73 extraction sites showed CVs (82%). They were found in 441 of the total number of 517 molar extraction sites explored (85%). For the maxillary non-molars, CVs were found in 72 of 123 extraction sites (58%), and for mandibular non-molars, 23 of 51 extraction sites were affected (45%). For all non-molars, the CV rate was 55%, representing 95 of 174 extraction sites. The overall CV rate, regardless of site, was 77% (536 out of 691 extraction sites) (Figure 3). Smaller CVs could have been missed, making these percentages conservative.
You can read the research paper on this
here. It really is an excellent read. How do you avoid this nightmare ? Well when you get a tooth extracted, just make sure the ligaments are properly removed, so the bone can heal, it's not rocket science, but your average retard dentist probably won't have ever even heard of cavitations, even tho most people probably have 1 or a lot more.
So, how much toxic crap do you have in your jaw ? Just because you have a load of amalgam fillings or even root canal doesn't mean you will get sick. Just like smoking 10 cigarettes a day doesn't make most people chronically ill, but they will have a weaker immune system because it has to deal with a greater toxic load. But really, root canal, cavitations and mercury can really destroy your health completely if you aren't careful.
DON'T LET YOUR LOCAL CLUELESS DENTIST BUTCHER YOU !!! DON'T DO IT !!!!
Brushing after every meal (even without toothpaste) is the best way to avoid a trip to the [s]blacksmiths[/s] dentists.
