Hello Everyone,

 

I have a badly chipped tooth that has amalgam filling showing. It has been

this way for a few months because I am having a problem finding a dentist

that will Not use flouride . Plus they were going to remove my amalgam

filling and I am not sure they will do it in a safe manner. I dont want them

to make me really sick. I went to a dentist and he said he would make me a

ceramic crown and take the filling out. He said he does it in a safe manner

but he would not tell me about his methods. When he found out I did not want

flouride used in anything he dropped me as a patient.

 

He did several x-rays and it only showed that one cavity. He did not say if

my tooth chipped due to the cavity. All he said is there was a large cavity

there. He did not mention it but I do have white spots on that tooth that

looks like too much flouride in my teeth.The chipped tooth is the most

flouridated. Flouride makes teeth brittle.

 

I just recently noticed a possible cavity in another area that did not show

up in the previous x-ray. I want to treat it without having it filled. The

area of the tooth is a tooth that would be exposed in a smile.

 

Ideally I want to treat my chipped tooth with supplements and such as well

as the other one. I am also wanting to improve the condition of my teeth in

general. Obviously I am headed for trouble if I dont do anything.

 

The chipped tooth has recently started having a pulsing pain usually at

night . It is bearable but I dont want it to get into my gums and require a

root canal or worse. It is also sensitive to cold.

 

Am I asking for too much to be able to avoid expensive dental work?
