Mercury Poisoning From Teeth

I know it might sound scary, but I want to clear up some misconceptions.

Dental amalgams, those silver fillings in your teeth, do contain a small amount of mercury.

But here's the thing – it's not as dangerous as it sounds!

I think those silver fillings are fine...as long as you dispose of them in the bio Hazzard waste container or they are are in a person's mouth. Just make sure they don't go in the waste basket...that would be against the law.
