Should I Care About Mercury-Free Dentistry?

Mercury is one of the most toxic metals known to man, and yet the debate continues about whether mercury in dental fillings is medically safe.

The question is essentially, how much of this toxic substance can your body safely withstand and would you take a chance with your family’s health?

Poison In Your Teeth

The book “The Poison in Your Teeth” clearly explains why amalgam (silver) fillings are hazardous to your health. Mercury amalgam fillings continuously release mercury vapor, the most poisonous, naturally occurring, non-radioactive substance on earth, into your body. The mercury amalgams emit contributes to over 100 health issues, including:

• Heart disease
• Autoimmune diseases, such as, Fibromyalgia and Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
• Chronic fatigue syndrome
• Allergies
• Neurological problems, including depression, memory loss, and tremors
• Mercury from amalgams is a cause of autism and developmental disorders

FDA Rulings

The FDA has already ruled that women who are planning to have a family are not to be exposed to amalgam (silver) filling due to the effects that could occur to the fetus and child.

Many Dentists claim they are Mercury-Free but in most cases that only refers to the fact that they do not place amalgam fillings, however, most do not realize the many hidden dangers of not removing the amalgam properly.
