Hi Jess and Pat, Jess.....If memory serves correct the carbocaine is detoxified more easily and through different pathways than the lidocaine which usually has epinephrine with it to make it last longer in the tissues, affording a longer anesthesia. For those of us with chronic health issues, the detoxification process if already impaired or we would not have the chronic condition, and our inability to handle the epinephrine is usually a part of this chronic illness. I have been told to not allow epinephrine to be given to me under any circumstances, even anaphalaxis, as my adrenals cannot compensate for the shock of the epi effects in my body. Also I never thought I was having any trouble with the lidocaine with epinephrine until that dentist gave me the carbocaine and I felt so much better in spite of the other effects of the dental treatment. Pat.....If I had my choice I would definately see a biologic dentist as they are trained far beyond regular dentistry regarding the interaction of the dental materials and the human body - specifically YOUR body and various materials including how to test your body for reactivity to any chosen materials. In my case it was a horrendously expensive difference, so I chose to tough it out and paid the price of needing a couple of months to detox what was released in the process of the drillling into my mouth - even with the helper using the vacuum in my mouth I could feel the particulate hitting all over my mouth and throat. If I had been allowed to rinse and spit more frequently it might have helped a bit, but he was drilling on several teeth in the same sitting, trying to get the work done before the end of my dental insurance coverage. I did not start heavy metal reactions for about 24 hours, but when I did it was a combat zone for weeks of unrelenting sore throat, swollen glands, flu like symptoms, pain, low grade fever, brain fog, lessened thyroid function and increased adrenal stress. I did eventually get over it and did use some heavy metal detox - what specifically I cannot remember. Only that I would probably try to do it differently if I had the opportunity.

I am also having work done at the end of this month, removing a large, old mercury filling and replacing with a partial crown and also two smaller mercury fillings to be replaced. Thanks, Jess
