Thanks for all of the information. I have read reports of this in the
"Amalgam Report - U.S. Public Health Service, which is available to
dentists. But thanks for the recap.
We all agree that there needs to be more studies . . . as with many
other substances too, including composite (the highly touted
alternative).
In the meantime, in the absense of proof of harm, dentists world wide
use amalgam. It is outlawed in several countries, but this is the
minority.
Cheers,

Yes, there is microgram amounts of mercury due to amalgam. Which
disease does it cause?
