Silver vs Mercury in the mouth

Recommended Posts

For an ASD (or PANS) child, I'd highly recommend going to a "mercury free" dentist. We found ours through the iaomt.org website, which is a great resource on safe dental practices in and of itself. Our dentist is in-network, but only uses materials/substances that are safe for sensitive individuals (no fluoride, infrequent x-rays only as needed, ozone to kill bacteria and stop a cavity early, no mercury/amalgams, etc).

Thank you Mama2Alex. Tried to PM you, but the account wasn't taking messages. I appreciated your description of the alternatives to using traditional and potentially toxic dental treatments and procedures. I have been looking for a good recommendation to a holistic dentist for my adult PANS/Autism son. I live near Sacramento but would drive a reasonable distance to a Northern California holistic dentist. Does your dentist see adults? Thank you!

Sorry, I'll see if I need to clear out my mailbox. Yes, our dentist takes adults and children - Dr. Hilado at Sunnyvale Dental Group. 408-739-9050. Look on the IAOMT.org website though, and see if you can find someone closer to you. And definitely look at websites and call a few places and ask lots of questions to make sure you're comfortable with how they practice. They are not necessarily all equal.
