Greetings! I always preferred to steer away from issues such as the mercury amalgam debate, since I viewed the OraMedia site and newsletter as more focused on dental prevention. However, many people mail me often enough about it that I thought I'd include an excellent piece posted on our newsgroup last week. Along with that article on mercury, I've included some recent news on new mercury studies as well as some updates in our product line. Enjoy this issue and we'll see you in May! Tom Cornwell |

Dental Amalgam - A Waking Nightmare ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What is Dental Amalgam?Dental amalgam is a material used by most dentists throughout much of the world to fill cavities caused by decay. This is about all that we are told about it by our dentists, and there is probably a very good reason why they make no attempt to tell us what it is, what is in it, and what it is capable of doing. Silver/mercury dental amalgamIt is the material of choice because it is cheaper than other filling materials, partly because it is quicker and easier to work with. This means that other materials need a lot more skill to work with, and take longer to do. This may be part of the reason why amalgam is so staunchly defended – fewer restorations done in one day = less profit.

See? We told you mercury was safe in your head... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here
is the ADA's stance on mercury amalgam based on
two current controversial studies.
In light of the information in the previous article, you may wonder how can we take the news of these recent studies seriously...

Product Update: Manuka Honey ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Over the past couple of months the calls and email
inquiries about Manuka Honey have encouraged me to stock
limited quantities of this miraculous product from New
Zealand's Manuka Flower (via the hive). In addition, I
veered off a little from the teeth and gums and now
offer
an effective Manuka skin cream and lip balm. (I've
been using the cream for a few months and it cleared
up an annoying skin condition I had - in short
order. I'm sold, and that's why I'm offering it.)
Look for a great new tooth & gum cleansing powder in a few days, dental tape, temproary filling kit and some new package deals which will save you some money on your oral health care requirements. |
