"Dental amalgam is perfectly safe," say by heart the dentists, the ministry of health, social security, medical ...
The French Dental Association defends dental amalgam
For the French Dental Association (ADF), the amalgam is "the filling material which has the lowest risk." The ADF acknowledges that the "risk threshold appears only in the case of multiple restorations (fillings over 10) and if they are very large." According to the ADF, the number of patients likely to have reactions to mercury would be between 0.04% and 0.00001%, while the resin, it, would have 40 times the risk of allergy. Finally, the association of dentists, there would be no illnesses related to mercury, rare cases of allergies excepted. It is true that dentists poisoning by mercury they handle daily, is a taboo subject that only a dentist to this day dared to break in testimony, however eloquent and his colleagues should consider.
The Ministry of Health promotes dental amalgams
Same story on the side of the French ministry of health said on its website officiel1 "composites have neither the skills nor bacteriostatic mechanical properties of amalgam. Their durability as well as their biocompatibility are much smaller and their use has a higher risk of recurrent decay under the filling. "
The ministry said: "It is not justified today in terms of public health, to advise against the use of dental amalgam, much less generate irrational fears about them. We could then, in behalf of a risk of harm - never proven - amalgams, to forego treatment to date still irreplaceable in the fight against tooth decay - which is harmful, it is well known and scientifically proven. "
