I had all amalgams removed summer 2018. I had many amalgams - all 4 quads. Mine were removed in 2 visits - left side and right side. I had compatibility testing done.with Biocomp lab. I read a lot on the IAOMT website beforehand.

At my appointments, I was given a slurry of charcoal and chlorella to drink - 1/2 before and 1/2 after. Each appointment took a total of 1.5 - 2 hours.

The first appointment, I got shocked when the deadening needle hit something. It scared me and caused my tongue to get shocked, but it caused no permanent damage. I had some issues during the procedure when I got anxious and fidgety but I got through it. Second appointment I had no issues except getting tired.

I had no noticeable improvement after amalgam removal. A couple months later, I returned to the dentist office with my mother for her first appointment. It felt like I was there for the first time. My head felt clearer, and I realized how much better I was than the last time I had been there. My memory of my own visits seemed like a fog.

I never did chelation or had heavy metals testing. Before amalgam removal, I had taken ALA on a couple of periods. The first was for a few months at 100 mg in a single dose. After a while I started having strange numb pain in the roof of my mouth and back of throat and upper front teeth. As this continued, I remembered what I had heard about Cutler and stopped the ALA. The numbness went away after stopping.

Probably a year after that, I took ALA again for about 2 weeks and similar symptoms returned (much sooner). Stopped again. Chlorella seems to make my cognitive worse.

I had a mercury amalgam removed by a “regular” dentist.

I prepared a charcoal slurry and drank it in the car prior to going in for the procedure.

I had a dental dam on to reduce amalgam particles going down my throat.

I felt no effects afterwards.

I have other amalgams in my mouth that will be replaced over time.

Good points. I’ve wrestled these questions. It’s a lot of work, and like you said you can’t really treat anything else while you’re doing it. But the cutler guys made the point that i can stop any time, might as well give a few rounds of chelation a try and see how I feel. And since I’m off ABX maybe I’ll give it a crap depending on my hair analysis. If it helps will def let ya know
