All Metals Carry Electric Current, No<br />
Metals Are Compatible<br />
Do you have gold fillings? Dental gold is not pure gold; pure<br />
gold would be <strong>to</strong>o soft for a filling. Gold must be durable enough<br />
<strong>to</strong> withstand chewing and support bridge work; therefore gold<br />
alloys (combinations of gold with more than one metal) are used<br />
<strong>to</strong> increase strength. As with silver amalgams, gold alloys can<br />
affect the nervous system. According <strong>to</strong> Boericke’s Materia<br />
Medica, gold can cause depression and other physical and<br />
mental problems. Dental gold is an excellent res<strong>to</strong>rative<br />
material with respect <strong>to</strong> durability, but is not the best choice of<br />
material from a health standpoint. Finding a compatible metal<br />
for fillings has proven <strong>to</strong> be impossible, if good health is <strong>to</strong> be a<br />
consideration. Metal fillings are a prime cause of a variety of<br />
health problems. In addition, not all patients will have the same<br />
health symp<strong>to</strong>ms from the same dental filling material.<br />
Case: Dr. Dave, D.D.S., age 55, migraines<br />
Dr. Dave heard my presentation on dental materials at Dr.<br />
Simon Yu, M.D.‟s seminar in St. Louis, Missouri. Dave arrived at<br />
my office, after a long nine-hour trip, with a splitting migraine<br />
headache. I put him <strong>to</strong> bed with an ice pack, hoping <strong>to</strong> give him<br />
some relief. After he had an hour of restless sleep I gave him an<br />
oral exam and a treatment plan. Using CEDS, we found all<br />
conductance points (acupuncture points) registered above fifty<br />
with an indica<strong>to</strong>r drop. Our plan was <strong>to</strong> remove his gold inlays<br />
