Dental material can be the cause of chronic diseases.

How could this be prevented?

All dental materials are subject to a continuous process of material loss

That is to say that crowns, bridges and fillings are continuously loosing components which, with the saliva, reach the blood circulation and are stored in the organism. This is not only true for amalgam and other low-quality alloys but also for high-quality alloys, especially when badly finished. Scientists have found a serious increase of gold- and platinum concentration in the stool of patients after fitting this kind of materials in their mouths.

Even three months after these materials had been fitted in, the increase factor is seven-fold. Studies of environmental medicine have proven that the immune system can be disturbed by such a high percentage.
Nevertheless the extent of disturbances by dental material cannot be evaluated in general. In order to be sure we have to make specific tests.

If a strain on your body by such damaging materials can be diagnosed they should be removed and substituted by materials with individual compatibility. Before any new material is fitted in it will be tested to make sure it is well tolerated by the patients organism, which means it will be tested and practically custom-made according to his individual state of health. Only after the  test results have proven that the material is very well tolerated by the patient it will be fitted in his mouth.
There is no such thing as a general compatibility of an alloy or material. But it is requested in biological dentistry that every material has to meet the requirements of biocompatibility, which means acceptability of the body. It is a general rule of holistic dentistry to use so-called bio-alloys. These are e.g. high-quality alloys of precious metals, not only in reference to the raw material itself, but also regarding its highest possible purity. This refers also to components which make up the tiniest part of an alloy. Especially patients who are electrosensitive or who show allergic reactions to metal can benefit from metal free materials for dental rehabilitation.
