Dentist In Auckland Offers Holistic Approach To Dental Work

Simon Wenley at Dentalman, a senior Auckland Dentist is one of very few Dentist in Auckland with a holistic approach to dental work. Dentalman (www.dentalman.co.nz) specializes in mercury free and mercury safe practice.

Why mercury free? Wenley said patients come to see him to remove their mercury amalgam fillings for two main reasons. Firstly, they want to have better looking teeth, a cosmetic make-over and they have been referred by a health professional.

Because of the toxic nature of mercury and the proximity of the mouth to the brain, it is critical to remove mercury amalgam fillings using safe protocols. The safe mercury amalgam removal protocols Dentalman follows include IV Vitamin C, rubber dam and a separate oxygen source. Dentalman has been doing these procedures for over 5 years, resulting in many happy patients. To support the immune system, they recommend advanced quality broad-spectrum nutritional supplements that contain the full spectrum of vitamins, chelated minerals, antioxidants including Vitamin D3. Dentalman also recommends a follow-up appointment with a natural therapist for a Hg Detox program following safe amalgam removal. Testimonies of these can be found at www.dentalman.co.nz

Amalgam is the most commonly used filling material throughout the world. It is an alloy of 50% Silver and 50 % Mercury. It is a material that attracts a lot of controversy because of its Mercury content. The Dental Associations in New Zealand, Australia and USA endorse it as a safe cheap material. It has been banned as a material in Sweden and is being phased out in Germany. The New Zealand Dental Association advises that it should not be used on pregnant mothers to be (go figure!). Mercury amalgam has been used as a filling material since 1816. Since then new strong filling materials have been invented and new dental equipment like dental water lasers and air abrasion, make it possible to make mercury (silver) fillings redundant.
