Dental Toxicities neurocutaneous syndrom

Very interesting...


Dental Toxicities

Digestive health starts in the mouth: For many patients, dental and digestive health seem to go hand in hand. Currently there are a multitiude of procedures and materials that have been developed by the dental industry to promote dental health, not to mention to ward off infections and improve oral hygiene. Manufacturers of dental materials spare no effort to provide dentists with the widest array of amalgams, composites, sealants, varnishes, cements, adhesives, pastes, etc. We all know about mercury and heavy metal toxicity; see for example, Ziff (2002). What we did not know about is the involvement of dental sealants (liners in the causation of a newly discovered disorder called neurocutaneous syndrom (NCS) (Amin, 2003, 2004).

NCS is a disorder that degrades the skin (cutaneous tissue) and neurological system of patients who have been treated with sealants during filling or root canal procedures. Patients sensitive to sulfa are especially susceptible to experiencing the neurological and dermatological toxicity symptoms of NCS. Neurological symptoms include but are not limitited to pinprick and/or creeping, painful, and irritating movement sensations, often interpreted as loss of memory, and light sensitivity may also be experienced. The cutaneous aspects include the development of small itchy sores or inflamed, elevated, pimples that may eventually evolve into painful open lesions with a tendency to spread. General symptoms include compromised immune system, fatigue, and psychological trauma.

A complete description of NCS symptoms, the syndrome, compounding factors, and the toxic sealants, with case histories and treatment protocols, is given by Amin (2003, 2004) Dental practitioners should be aware of the adverse effects of using sealants, and employ this knowledge to safeguard the well being of their patiesnt.

Janice -

Dr. Amin is probably the first doctor to identify this problem. He posted an accurate description in the mid 90's; I'll see if I can find a link to it (it may be gone by now).

A few things are very interesting -the first is that he knew that this is much more than a "skin thing". Another is that he treats people for toxicity and some have some improvement. And he runs a parasite clinic yet does not see it as a parasitic affliction.

weird about your teeth, i heard its the only part of your body that can poison you! im soo chiken about dentists

[Janice]

Make sure you check out his parasite clinic site. He has alot about morgellons.
I am still reading...

I am still trying to come to gripps with this theory. Just when you think, maby, you have a small understanding of this thing, along comes a whole different angle. I mean good god the man has a PHD in parasitology, and he does not see this as a parasite issue, but a dental toxicity issue. Janice

Janice.. no offense intended honestly but Dr. Amin's research is just about the oldest in the M world for the last 6 years or so. We appreciate your diligence truly but these endless threads about mold, toxins, dental mercury, drilling for parasites are all signs of the early onset of this disease. Hate to be the one to tell you this girl, but you are not a pioneer, we have all read and posted these many times before. Please do a search on the site (cough cough I say) before these endless posts. I know your heart is in the right place and you are trying to help but this site is becoming a gaping hole of reposting and nastiness. That comment is not intended to you personally......
All here used to be helpful and comforting... now we are eating our young with or collective needs to be "the One".

That thought in itself is another sickness... Control Freaks in Mosh Pit

It just doesn't work.

God Bless.

Do a search on MDR and you will find many more posts about Amin. There have been some who have tried his protocol, but still have morg symptoms. It could be part of the picture for some, but it is not necessarily the cause of morg. Babies and young children have this too and they do not have fillings. People have had fillings for years before this syndrome was noticed. If it was just dental fillings and the materials used then there should have been signs of this much sooner than recently.

I guess these post are not intended for you, so just ignore them... and do not bring nastiness my way. Thank you!!!!
