V-Tox treatment is a combination of high dose vitamin C infusions, dental treatment and diet alteration to restore patients to optimum health.

Mercury Amalgam Fillings – Removal & Detoxification
by Catherine M Crawford
Catherine Crawford, an aromatherapist with a diploma in nutritional medicine, describes how, at the age of 46, she decided to seek help from a sympathetic dentist to remove her amalgam fillings, due to the mercury which had been leeching into her system for many years and which had caused her a wide range of unpleasant symptoms.
Mercury and Selenium – The Battle of the Elements
by Dr RE Lister
Dental students are taught that amalgams are composed of a mixture of metals with varying composition of mercury, silver, zinc, tin and copper. They are told that these individual metals are all toxic, but when amalgamated their toxic effects are eliminated. ...The facts, however, are at variance with these views.
Mercury Free Dentistry
by Dr Graeme Munro-Hall and Dr Lilian Munro-Hall
We are dentists. Definitely not normal dentists. We realised over ten years ago that mercury from amalgam fillings could injure patients, so we became "Mercury Free". Now we are of the opinion that all metals have the possibility to injure patients, so now we are "Metal Free" as well. We use an American formaldehyde free composite and porcelain instead.
Mercury Madness
by Sheila Bailey
Imagine seeing a horror movie where the characters slowly become mentally and physically ill for no obvious reason and there appears to be no available cure for any of their mysterious symptoms. Although most of us know from experience that fact can sometimes be stranger than fiction, it's sad that my friend's life was almost ruined through a similar scenario which affected most of her adult life through no fault of her own.
Mercury Poisoning from Amalgam Fillings
by Vivian Bradshaw
Mercury, the most toxic metal in amalgam fillings, has a long history of use and an equally long history of known toxic effects. Despite man's efforts to use mercury, its poisonous nature has limited such use and where it has not, penalties in health and life itself have been exacted.
My Story – Mercury Amalgam Filling Removal
by Kerry Burrows
To do it or not to do it, that is the question. Whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous mercury and amalgam or take arms against a sea of harmful vapour and by a dental operation, end them?
Nutritional Mercury Detoxification Protocol
by Stewart Drage
Around ten years ago I decided that there was sufficient evidence available to confirm my decision to become a mercury free dentist. This article does not concern itself with the ongoing controversy as to whether amalgam is a safe filling material, but discusses the general nutritional advice we give to our patients and the specific substances that we would like them to take during and after amalgam removal.

Root Canal – Roots of Disease!
by Dr John Roberts
The use of dental amalgams brought dentistry out of the Barbers shop to the highly technical discipline it is today. We are now investigating and recognising the effects that the mercury from these fillings has had on the health of generations of individuals.
Save Your Wisdom Teeth – The Risks of Dental Extraction
by Mr Amir
Wisdom teeth are the third molars situated at the back of the dental arch and are the last adult teeth to develop. They often protrude only partially with some of their surface being covered with gum and this can lead to infection or other problems. Historically, the extraction of wisdom teeth has been a common in dentistry, but recent guidelines have now been issued to significantly reduce this practice.
Selenium and Mercury Detoxification
by Andrew Bennison
Selenium is one of the elements which occurs in such minute quantities in the soil, foodstuffs and the body that, in the past, they were impossible to measure. Only a "trace" of their presence was detectable. In the last few decades it has come to light that these trace elements play a vital role in the biochemistry of the human body.
