I came across this post by a holistic dentist in Glendale, CA. Many of you are aware that my father, Dr. Jack Alpan, practiced dentistry and was also a naturopathic doctor.

If you have amalgam fillings, my recommendation would be to replace those fillings with composite or another less toxic alternative.
