Amalgam is safe : No, amalgams is not a cause. Many studies has examined these amalgam fillings and found them to be an effective, strong long-lasting treatment for dental cavities. American Dental Association supports use of the amalgam materials. It is proofed that there is no need for concern about the safety of amalgam fillings. You should replace amalgam fillings only when they are worn or broken.
