I’m a huge fan of the Real Housewives series and I’ve been following along with story of Yolanda Hadid. She was on social media last month saying she had visited a holistic dentist in order to have all her mercury fillings removed. She has also had all her crowns removed as well as silicone breast […]
Could my partial dentures be making me sick?
I’ve had upper and lower partials for a little over a year now and I think they are making me sick. I constantly have sores in my mouth and just don’t feel quite right most days. I brought it to the attention of my dentist several times and all he does is refer me elsewhere. […]
Is there such a thing as holistic orthodontics?
Our son needs braces, and I’m concerned about his allergy to nickel. At our consultation with the orthodontist, I asked about the possibility of Invisalign, but we were told it’s not appropriate for his situation and they mentioned something about ceramic braces. I really don’t want to deal with any metal-type braces so I am […]
Could the holistic dentist have saved my tooth?
I’m really worried I made a bad call by going to see a holistic dentist. I’m 24 weeks pregnant and had a major infection that made half of my face swell up and leave me in total agony. I knew I had to have some kind of treatment done, but I was also really worried […]
Am I putting my health at risk if I have my amalgam fillings removed?
I have quite a few silver fillings and I want to have them out and replaced with white fillings. When I asked my dentist about it, he pretty much told me he wouldn’t remove them because it not safe and I could ingest mercury. Isn’t there anyone who can remove my fillings safely? — Michael […]
Do I really need to fly overseas to see a holistic dentist?

Is mercury-free best for my kids?
I’m not really sure what to think about this whole mercury-free thing. I’ve had silver fillings all my life and they are completely fine. Now that I have kids, I’ve become more conscious about what they are exposed to – even down to the chemicals I use in our home. I guess it would make […]
Could my high blood pressure be caused by silver fillings?
I was just diagnosed with high blood pressure and it totally caught me off guard. I certainly can’t claim to be a super healthy person, but I try to watch what I eat, stay pretty active and I don’t smoke. I even checked to see if anyone in my family has high blood pressure and […]
“Holistic” dentist… serious or a scam?
I’m wondering if holistic dentists are legit. I was considering seeing one because I’m more into natural options and treating my whole body, not just symptoms, but I read somewhere that there’s no such thing as a legit holistic dentist. The article put it on par with naturopathic doctors, and how many states don’t even […]
Will a Holistic Dentist Remove a File from my Tooth?
About six months ago, I went in to have a filling done and after I was already in the chair, the dentist changed his mind. He said a filling wouldn’t be enough and that the tooth needed to be crowned. I went along with it and let him do the crown, but my tooth hurt […]
