This is an ongoing controversy. There is indications that mercury-silver dental amalgams have affected people's health, such as mine. But there's other people that say it does not affect people's health, because it can't be proven or hasn't been proven.
So until it has been established and recognized by numerous responsible parties, that mercury-silver dental amalgams affect one's health, they won't be able to tell if it can prematurely cause death. And it gets very complicated. Why? Well, for one...it's the combination of factors that can get us sick or kill us. It could be a combined amount of mercury from our fillings, mercury from food such as contaminated fish, mercury from streams, plus other toxins, poor diet, hereditary factors, and so forth and so on.
So the question you would have to ask yourself...do you want mercury from these fillings? For there is no question, is if you have these black metal fillings, you will get mercury in your brain, liver, kidneys and many other places. It will accumulate. There are also many other factors, of how well your body can rid itself of these toxins, of how many fillings you have, the type of materials in these fillings and on and on.
So I suggest that you don't worry or panic; that you do research on the subject...read and read. If you decide to change over to white fillings...again read and read about the different types of fillings they have for you. Also if you have mercury fillings removed, please find a good cosmetic dentist that will reduce your exposure to mercury while these toxic fillings are replaced. This includes not only a dental dam, but adequate ventilation etc.
It sounds like you want people to tell you that they haven't had health problems with their mercury fillings. Well, how can they tell you? In my opinion, our medical community has not done good enough of a job of correlating health problems from toxins such as mercury to our well-being. Some people may think they are healthy with these amalgams. Well, now think of all the people have these mysterious fibromyalgia muscle pains, headaches, cancer and so forth. How can we know if these were caused from fillings or other sources or for other reasons?
What I can tell you, is after I had my mercury-silver dental amalgams replaced with less toxic white fillings, that my teeth tightened in place very fast, the bleeding gums stopped, the gum/mouth disease was greatly reduced, the muscle/joint pains stopped enough so that I could run for miles, the lower back pains went away, the mysterious chest pains slowly year by year went away, urinary problems slowly were reduced, along with my headaches which stopped very soon after the amalgams were replaced.
If you have any more questions, please let me know. I'd be glad to help.
