Many people do not realize that "silver" amalgam fillings are 50% mercury. Mercury vaporizes easily at room temperature and is tasteless, odorless, and colorless. Inhaled mercury vapor is readily absorbed into the bloodstream. It is believed that dental fillings contribute more mercury to a person's body than all other sources of mercury combined. Mercury is a powerful poison. It is more toxic than lead or arsenic. No amount of exposure to mercury vapor should be considered totally harmless.
We are proud to offer you our experience in providing safe amalgam removal procedures and mercury free dentistry.
