Yes I have. It's not something you can quantify, you may not notice any difference for example. It's very much a long term thing.

Very important to use a dentist that specialises in this and you'll need deep pockets.

Happy to answer any more questions.

Isn't there a likelihood of releasing mercury into the system when removing fillings?

in reply to Clutter

Yes - daughter went to specialist in Manchester with a dam system/filters etc. even then she had spots under her jaw for ages, 'anxious' & lost a lot of weight despite detox/chelate etc. still some left but she's not ready, heavy metal poisoning shouldn't be taken lightly (oops) J :D

I'm thinking about having this done, and I've come across a specialist in Manchester also. Not sure if you are allowed to mention names on here, so spareribs do you mind sending me a PM with the details to check if it is the same one? It's about 2 1/2 hours drive away, so would ideally want to have the consultation and work done in the same visit.

What did you think, and would you recommend it?

Yes and fatigue improving slowly. It takes a long time for the mercury to leave the body apparently years!!!
