Hi Katie,  I have been in treatment for approx 18mths and have been advised not to have any fillings out.  I too feel my teeth have had a huge negative impact on my IC recovery along with my thyroid condition. With this treatment we need to take things slowly. 

Hi Katie, I had my mercury fillings out during treatment- probably a year in, I asked Matia first and she thought I would be OK and I was fine. I asked them to use a dental dam to ensure none of the filling went down my throat and had them replaced with the white filliings and I didn't have a reaction at all. I would ask Dr Brizman in your appointment as everyone is different. C

My mouth is full of mercury fillings, I think I have 18. Anyway, I have thought about having them removed but I haven't. Matia didn't think I should. I was in treatment for almost 4 years and I got better even with a mouth full of fillings.

I had mine out before treatment and actually wished I had left them alone. I ended up having my first root canal because one of the teeth the fillings came out gave me trouble. Probably would not do it over again.
