    The document discusses the dangers of mercury in dental amalgam fillings, which are 45-55% elemental mercury. Mercury accumulates in the body and is continuously emitted from dental amalgam fillings, being absorbed in tissues like the brain, kidneys, and liver. Replacing failing amalgam fillings requires specific protocols to avoid exposure to mercury.

    Dental amalgam fillings are made with a mixture of mercury, silver, copper, tin, and
    sometimes zinc. Often called “silver fillings,” all dental amalgams are 45-55% elemental
    mercury. Mercury is the most toxic non-radioactive neurotoxin, and recognized as a
    chemical of major concern because it poses a dangerous threat to public health.
    Mercury accumulates in the body, and any amount of mercury taken into the body
    should be considered hazardous.

    Mercury is continuously emitted from dental amalgam fillings, and it is absorbed and
    retained in the body, particularly in the brain, kidney, liver, lung, and gastrointestinal
    tract. The output of mercury can be intensified by the number of fillings and other
    activities, such as chewing, teeth-grinding, and the consumption of hot liquids. Mercury
    is also known to be released during the placement, replacement, and removal of dental
    mercury amalgam fillings. Replacing failing silver amalgam fillings must be done with
    specific protocols to avoid patient and practitioner exposure. Dr. Wissinger provides a
    safe mercury removal technique, following the guidelines recommended by The
    International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT) to minimize mercury
    exposure.
