People who receive mercury-based dental treatments, like amalgam fillings, run a higher risk of acquiring degenerative diseases. This is according to Dr. Marvin Pantangco, a forward-thinking holistic dentist based in Encinitas, California, serving the residents around the San Diego area. Dr. Marvin has recommended that in order to reduce the risks of mercury poisoning, people need to take steps to ensure that their teeth remain mercury-free. This means that anyone seeking dental treatment needs to opt for alternatives to mercury-based treatments. And those, who have already undergone the mercury-based treatments, need to have them removed.

Mercury is a core component of dental amalgam fillings. Amalgam is popularly known as “silver fillings” because of their silver-like appearance. They are used for filling dental cavities. Mercury usually makes up about 50% of Amalgam, because it is used to bind the metals (copper, silver and, tin) which make up Amalgam. The problem with mercury arises from it seeping out of the teeth and getting into the body. The initial exposure occurs at the moment when the amalgam fillings are being put into the teeth. The problem worsens when the teeth are exposed to heat (as when drinking a hot beverage). This causes the mercury to vaporize and get absorbed into the body. Once in the body, the mercury collects in vital organs like the brain, kidneys, and liver – and becomes toxic to the body.
Numerous studies have linked amalgam fillings to excessive mercury build-up in the body. One such study was published in the American Journal of Forensic Medicine and Pathology. This study found that amalgam fillings were responsible for over two-thirds of unwanted mercury build-up in the human body. A similar study carried out on human cadavers found a 10-fold increase in mercury levels in the kidneys and brain of people who had over 12 amalgam fillings compared to people with a maximum of 3 fillings. A high build-up of mercury in vital organs, like the brain, has been associated with an increased risk of degenerative diseases like Alzheimers and Parkinsons.
“For the last 150 years, silver fillings have been preferred in dentistry for being both durable and relatively cheap. Also, the health risks were largely unknown”, said Dr. Marvin. “Now that we’ve discovered the potential harm, the onus is on us to find safer alternatives.” This is precisely why Dr. Marvin set up The Center for Natural Dentistry. This Encinitas – based dental clinic is at the forefront of developing safer natural alternatives to mercury-based dental treatments.
Dr. Marvin has now developed a safe procedure for removing mercury-based fillings and replacing them with safer alternatives. This method uses advanced techniques to remove the fillings in a safe and precise manner. The removal process needs to be done with care, otherwise patients can be exposed to the very mercury they’re trying to get rid of.
“We have developed a unique protocol to ensure that our mercury-removal procedures are 100% safe”, said Dr. Marvin. “We combine advanced materials with cutting-edge techniques to ensure that each patient is protected from all possible risks.”
“Dr. Marvin recently removed all of my mercury,” said Alison J. “He has a high tech office with all the latest methods. He takes every safety precaution possible when removing mercury. I would never trust anyone else to my teeth and health than Dr. Marvin.”
