 Tooth Fillings Don't Cause Alzheimer's Disease Articles Tooth Fillings Don't Cause Alzheimer's Disease
February 08, 1999
A study at the University of Kentucky concludes that there's no evidence
mercury used in dental fillings can cause Alzheimer's disease. Now here's a
case where researchers spent money and time to come to a conclusion that was
pretty obvious from the start.
There are often exaggerated speculations about the causes of diseases and
scientists can't follow up on everything. In this case, dental amalgam,
which goes into fillings, became controversial over fears that it might be a
possible public health risk.
Dr. Stanley Saxe, a dentistry profession, said the study shows that such
fears over mercury appear to be unfounded.
"Although very small amounts of mercury are released from dental amalgam -
generally when rubbed or abraded due to brushing or eating - it is not taken
up by the brain," Saxe wrote in the Journal of the American Dental
Association.
The study started in 1991 and was funded by the National Institutes of
Health.

Increased {*filter*} mercury levels in patients with Alzheimer's disease.

Schwarz P, Hock U, Growdon JH, Nitsch RM
Department of Psychiatry, University of Basel, Switzerland.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder that leads to
dementia and death. In addition to several genetic parameters, various
environmental factors may influence the risk of getting AD. In order to test
whether {*filter*} levels of the heavy metal mercury are increased in AD, we
measured {*filter*} mercury concentrations in AD patients (n = 33), and compared
them to age-matched control patients with major depression (MD) (n = 45), as
well as to an additional control group of patients with various non-psychiatric
disorders (n = 65). {*filter*} mercury levels were more than two-fold higher in AD
patients as compared to both control groups (p = 0.0005, and p = 0.0000,
respectively). In early onset AD patients (n = 13), {*filter*} mercury levels were
almost three-fold higher as compared to controls (p = 0.0002, and p = 0.0000,
respectively). These increases were unrelated to the patients' dental status.
Linear regression analysis of {*filter*} mercury concentrations and CSF levels of
amyloid beta-peptide (A beta) revealed a significant correlation of these
measures in AD patients (n = 15, r = 0.7440, p = 0.0015, Pearson type of
correlation). These results demonstrate elevated {*filter*} levels of mercury in AD,
and they suggest that this increase of mercury levels is associated with high
CSF levels of A beta, whereas tau levels were unrelated. Possible explanations
of increased {*filter*} mercury levels in AD include yet unidentified environmental
sources or release from brain tissue with the advance in neuronal death.

Hi Jan, from one Hoosier to another; two things. 1) Statistics are the mathamatics of the devil 2) If Bobby Knight were a dentist he would throw a chair at you.

Sorry I'm not a chemist. There's plentry of references to mercury and the cns. My mercury level has dropped 40 points since I had the metal out. I have NO doubt the mercury (heavy metals) caused my PN. And I never ate fish. Jan

Perhaps your collective denial/dishonesty/deliberate ignorance prevents you from venturing outside the Journal of the ADA and reading the slide show on Hg on the CNS (in the form released from mercury amalgam) from Boyd Haley, the research scientist at Univ of Kentucky who has been studying the subject for the last 10 years, at: http://www.altcorp.com/mercurytox.htm and the research linking mercury to Alzheimers, compiled by Haley,
available here:
http://www.altcorp.com/alzheimers.htm
in which, among other things, Haley clearly points out that the only
studies contradicting the involvement of mercury in Alzheimer's are
studies done by dentists.
The reason why I mention *deliberate ignorance* is not only because your
profession enjoys talking about the Science on Hg/Alzheimer's to your
patients as though the ADA published study is the only study done, but
also because the Web link just posted by Jan contains Boyd's slide show
which throughly presents the chemistry of Hg's effect on the CNS with
respect to Alzheimer's. In his slide show and his presentation Haley
also presents his findings on the toxicity of both saliva and
water--pre-soaked with mercury amalgams--on CNS enzymes centrally
involved in Alzheimer's.
We're on the Internet now, and your profession will enjoy less success
in burying with the facts/findings unpleasant for dentists and
brainwashinig patients with the facts/findings which are pleasant for
dentists. By *dentist* I am referring by the way to a specific *kind* of
dentist, not all dentists, but simply the worst kind, the kind which
engages in medically negligent misrepresentation and refuses to curb his
behavior or accept responsibility for it. If you believe in becoming an
ethical human being I suggest you Print Haley's Web page summarizing
*all* the findings on mercury and Alzheimer's--when your patients are
gullible enough to think you are educated and ethical and actually *ask*
you--rather than giving a slimey and professionally self-serving version
to your patients. Just because you have decided to take certain risks
for yourself and your family does not give you a right to make those
decisions for others. And if the dentistry board in your state harasses
you for making this patently fair and honest documentation available to
patients, and coerces you to stop doing so, then every one of your
slimey colleagues--who values his own professional survival over issues
of ethics, public health, and civil rights--shares responsibility in the
outcome. A *dental trade union* is supposed to *protect* dentists, not
destroy them. You dentists should be collectively standing up for your
own and your colleagues' right of speech and ethical professional
behavior rather than caving in to the lowest human traits presently
thriving in your profession. When the professional society itself
becomes corrupt and medically negligent, then your participation in it
is no longer innocent.

Tooth Fillings Don't Cause Alzheimer's Disease doublefugue-- Since dentists are occupationally exposed to Hg, you must think we
are either suicidal maniacs or idiots.
Twenty years ago, Morley Safer said on Sixty Minutes that dentists
were burying your so-called information because we didn't want to have to go
back to school to learn how to use other materials. Since this was not even
true at the time, and is obviously wrong now, on what basis would dentists
knowingly expose themselves and their patients to potential harm? How much
money is Boyd Haley making exploiting the suffering of others?

He isn't doing that at all, he is doing studies that have proved the dangers of mercury amalgams. That's exactly opposite of what you just accused him of. He is indeed trying to keep people from suffering. Jan

REPLY: Of course! How about the dentists and dental assistants from 1900 to 1960
who mulled, or hand-rolled the amalgam between their fingers? We used
squeeze cloths to express the excess mercury, releasing fumes into the air
every day.
Today, this does not happen. We use pre-sealed capsules.
Do you know how many times some mercury fell out of the dispenser and onto
the floor? Believe me, it splashes into one zillion little balls.
You'd expect that some of them would have polyneuropathies, when you listen
to this internet crowd in the year 2000.
Epidemiologically, it didn't happen!
Cheers,
Joel

Tooth Fillings Don't Cause Alzheimer's Disease Jan-- Maybe I missed something. Affinity Labeling Technologies seems to be a
commercial entity founded by Boyd Haley:
Welcome to the corporate web site of Affinity Labeling
Technologies, Inc. ALT, Inc. is a
biotechnology company devoted to the production and use of
photoaffinity compounds for solving
problems in the biomedical and basic sciences. This site was
designed as an educational resource for
persons working in the health care field including dentistry and
medicine as well as researchers in the
basic sciences. This site is equipped with many hyperlinks which
are all indicated by RED text.
It seems that the entire entity is devoted to evaluating the scourge of dental
amalgam. I see no evidence that this mission is not a commercial enterprise. Now,
I can't imagine how fomenting fear among patients could be to Dr. Haley's
advantage. Can anyone else out there?
