Risks of Mercury Fillings

Mercury fillings also called silver fillings, and amalgam fillings, consist of 45-55% metallic mercury.

In 2020, FDA recommended concerns regarding mercury fillings on patients with health concerns. Such health concerns include  diabetes, pregnancy, neurological impairment, and kidney dysfunction.

Common symptoms of mercury toxification include

  • fatigue
  • memory loss
  • hearing loss
  • headache
  • weight loss
  • kidney problems

If you suspect that you or someone you know may have mercury poisoning, please get in touch with Seattle Dental Care to learn more about Safe Mercury Removal.

Dental Mercury consumption is highest during the placement and removal process of mercury or amalgam fillings. Hence, it is critical that patients work with a dentist who understands the risks of removal, has a strong protocol built in, and someone who is able to reverse the dental mercury toxicity.
