Lecture Title: Everything You Need to Know About the Mercury in Your Amalgam Dental Fillings and Haven’t Been Told

Lecture Description: 

Mercury is a toxic substance. You know that. But did you know it’s one of 31 priority chemicals targeted for reduction by the EPA? Did you know it’s number 3 out of 275 hazardous substances on the priority list of the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Controls? Number three! The Center for Disease Control identifies it as a workplace and safety hazard. 

Did you know that this highly toxic substance, which has been phased out of many consumer products, is still being used in dental amalgam fillings? 

As savvy health consumers we’re careful to avoid eating anything that could contain high levels of mercury, such as fish. And yet, for years we’ve allowed mercury amalgam fillings to be placed in our mouths, believing they were safe. Now we know they’re not. Research has shown that dental amalgam fillings leach mercury into our mouths as they breakdown, especially when exposed to heat such as hot drinks. It’s become clear that mercury is wholly, or in part, responsible for a growing list of severe physical and mental conditions affecting both children and adults. Mercury is a real threat to not only our health, but that of future generations, as well as our environment. 

Here’s the good news. People are taking a stand and crusading to stop the use of mercury in all dental fillings on a global level. National and international organizations such as the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology, the World Dental Federation, The World Alliance for Mercury Free Dentistry and the United Nations recognize the dangers of mercury and are working to create global standards addressing risks related to mercury. 

This is a rare opportunity to meet the dynamic leaders in this quest. It’s your chance to learn everything you need to know about the effects of mercury in your dental fillings and most importantly, how you can improve your health, protect your family and yourself — today.
