Bioenergetics has found that a high percentage of persons with chronic disease present with mercury as the Key Toxin. In most cases, the mercury was leaking from the fillings. Many patients are also found to have problems caused by a secondary phenomenon, oral galvanism, in which an electrical current is created in the mouth when two or more different metals are used for fillings. This current is similar to that of a battery in which the anode and cathode are also composed of different metals. Mercury is toxic in both organic and inorganic forms.
Mercury fillings can induce serious side-effects in individuals overly sensitive to mercury.
Long-term exposure to mercury in most people will cause chronic stress in the body. For those people in whom mercury is the Key Toxin, metabolic processes are blocked, along with the immune system. Patients without mercury fillings are easier to treat than those with mercury fillings. Based on these observations, it is safe to say that mercury is not the preferred material for use in dental fillings. You are strongly encouraged to do further reading on this subject, and when the opportunity arises, to replace your mercury fillings with more appropriate materials such as porcelain, gold, or composites.
