[quote:Anonymous Coward 3937774:MV8yMTc2NDg5XzM2ODA2Njg5Xzk1MTRFNzhD] [quote:Anonymous Coward 36601544:MV8yMTc2NDg5X0UyNkZCNzI=] I went to the dentist today because I have a tooth that is beginning to be a tiny bit painful once in a while, that has a HUGE mercury amalgam filling in it. I bet half the crown is amalgam and it is a large back molar tooth. I ask the dentist if mercury is ever leeched into the rest of the body from the filling. He said, it would be too tiny to matter. And he said that you get mercury when eating fish, now. Does anyone have any insight on this? [/quote] Next time a dentist says "oh dont worry about it". You tell him/her "okay, lets put mercury amalgam fillings in all of your teeth ... dont worry I'll pay for it". I guarantee they will say no thank you. Also most dentist's themselves do not have mercury amalgam fillings, and the ones that do, end up removing them. [/quote]

Does anyone have any insight on this?
