How can i be sure my teeth analgrams are not poisoning me?i read online some are poisoned by mercury very worried i have symptoms of it

Amalgams: Irrational fear. Just because you read it online does not make it true. Amalgams have been used for over 150 years, you'd think by now any problems with the material would have been discovered. If it would make you feel better mentally, have them replaced, but it is needless dentistry and you symptoms will still be the same.
