Exposure to Mercury From Dental Fillings Exceeds Safe Levels

CHAMPIONSGATE, Fla., Nov. 24, 2010 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- A new risk

assessment report submitted by the International Academy of Oral Medicine and

Toxicology this month to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warns that

mercury from dental fillings is estimated to cause 67.2 million Americans to

exceed the Reference Exposure Level (REL) of 0.3 ug/m3 established by the U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) in 1995. If the more protective REL

of 0.03 ug/m3 established in 2008 by the California Environmental Protection

Agency is used, then the current safe-dose is probably exceeded by 122.3 million

Americans.

Dental fillings referred to by dentists as " amalgam " or " silver " are actually

50% mercury. A 2006 Zogby poll indicated that 76% of Americans were not aware

that silver fillings are half mercury.
