Thanks I appreciate your input
Some of the more harsh chelators include DMPS, DMSA, and EDTA. With these, it's best to do it under a doctor's supervision just to be safe.
No matter which route you choose, you should always supplement with lots of water, vitamins, and minerals to replace any that you lose as your body is undergoing the metabolic changes of chelation. There are some great websites about things like chelating safely, body detoxification, bowel, kidney, and liver cleansing, etc. If you are good at doing internet searches you should have no problem, just use the keywords "chelation" "detox" "mercury removal", etc on a site like Google, Yahoo!, or Ask.com. Good luck!
Here is a good thread about fillings:

It is best to use a specialist simply because they have the equipment to prevent you from ingesting and breathing the mercury vapors when the fillings are extracted.
I have been thinking about having another baby hopefully in the near future. I wanted to be begin my preparation by removing all silver amalgams from my mouth. Two weeks ago I had the first two removed. Now I'm reading information on the web about how dangeous the removal of these fillings can be, and how inportant it is to go to a "mercury free" dentist for this procedure. (which I didn't know exsisted until now)I feel that that the dentist wasn't very thorough, and I'm upset thinking I may have made myself more toxic. Is there anything I can do to assist my body in eliminating the mercury now? I know chelation may be something I may check out, but I was looking for something immediate that I can do right now ie. supplements?
Its probably in my head but I feel like I'm "more air-headed" and my attention span is lacking
Thanks
