Yes, in some.: Bisphenol is a constituent in most composite resins that are light-cured. It is suspected, but not proven, that this chemical mimics estrogen in the body.

Not anymore: Bpa (bisphenol a) is a resin used in some plastics. There is some evidence, tho nothing has been proven, that bpa may have harmful effects on child development. Dental sealants & newer composites don’t contain it. The american dental association states the bpa in the saliva after 2 hrs from old plastic fills is 200 x lower than the level epa (environmental protection association) considers safe.
