Understanding Elemental Mercury

Elemental mercury is primarily found in dental amalgam fillings, particularly in molars. These silver-looking fillings contain about 50% mercury and pose significant health risks, including toxicity to the nervous system and thyroid issues. The FDA recommends that certain vulnerable groups, such as pregnant women and young children, avoid these fillings entirely due to their harmful effects. Proper removal of these fillings requires careful procedures to prevent exposure to mercury vapors, making it essential to consult a qualified biological dentist when considering removal.
