Not all dentists are for all people (we certainly aren't for everyone) and you should have every right to seek another dentist. Good luck!

After three sittings, the dentist said he would do silver filling! I asked how the metal can be filled in the cavity? He then evaded the question telling it is an amalgam containing mercury. I then told him the dangers of mercury in the mouth as I know the dangers resulting out of the filling. He did not say anything that it is Ok, as he is doing this sort of filling for the last ten years! Now what shall I do? How to protect myself from the possible dangers of having this mercury amalgam in my mouth? Thank you, Regards Raman I had root canal treatment about a week back, on the molar tooth.
