Does dental bonding contain toxic chemicals? how about metal filings
4 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
Dental fillings: Toxic chemicals are not used in the mouth as far as amalgam fillings no negative research is present and silver fillings have a history of reducing caries around them and they hold up longer it's just cosmetically they aren't pretty.

Nope: All restorative materials used in dentistry have been thoroughly tested and approved for human use.

Depends: Depends on what you consider toxic and at what dose you receive the chemical. Bonded fillings contain bpa currently in a gray area on many fronts, metallic filings contain about 50% mercury. As a dentist I have 2 places to put these fillings your mouth or an epa registered hazardous waste dump. Which do you prefer?
