I was unclear. I believe that whatever is correct for the patient in

terms of their patterns will strengthen the zheng qi. I did not mean

to suggest that supplementation therapy is what is called for in every

case. This will generally require a well crafted strategy of draining

and supplementation. the bullet wound analogy is an interesting one.

I hadn't thought of the incompatible materials as being overwhelming to

normal zheng qi, but perhaps Stephenis right. If so, my question would

be whether ALL people with mixed materials react or just those who are

hypersensitive. If it is only the latter, then I would suggest that

the internal imbalance is more important than the material in the

mouth. Same with EM fields, food allergies, etc.

>>> For those who have access to lab testing in their scope of

practice, ther is a lab in Colorado that tests reactivity to a huge

number of materials used in dental work:

 

Clifford Consulting and Rresearch, Inc.

Colorado Springs ,CO

(719)550-0008

 

Of course, it's best to be tested before putting in any dental

material (or joint replacement) to see if the material is compatable.
