Thanks for all the suggestions about what do to help clear the body of mercury. I'll have to do more reading about how to use clay (I have some, but don't know if it's the right kind or how to do it) and find out how to use activated charcoal. Luckily I'm already taking some of the recommended supplements.
Last night after much searching, I'd decided to stick with my dentist of 21 years. He hasn't used mercury fillings in maybe 20 years. He does nice work and makes sure the bite is perfect. I looked online and out of over 100 dentists in this area, there is only one mercury-safe dentist. I figured if all those very intelligent dentists don't think the mercury is an issue for their health and that of their patients and staff, then maybe it's overblown. I thought I'd be required to have an expensive consultation and checkup and possibly x-rays if I went to a new dentist. Today I called, and the price is a little under $1,000 for a crown at the mercury safe dentist, which is very little over the amount I was quoted from my own. They said I wouldn't have to see him before the appointment. So, the only problem is that once I see that one which is about 1 1/2 hour away, I can't go back to my old one. I know nothing of this new one's work. But at least I know he's cautious and believes in doing all he can to help one's health. This has been nerve-wracking! I've always had a fear of dentists even though this one has only given me maybe two seconds of pain in all these years. I sure hate the though of going to someone new.

And if there are 100 dentists in the area, how would you know which one could do it better?

So that you do not become poisoned in the removal process. Any dentist can remove them but not all dentists do it properly.
