Mercury fillings are considered a health hazard. It is very difficult to understand how the simple process of chewing can be harmful to one’s health. Research has proved that if one chews food with teeth having this type of fillings, harmful vapor is released from the fillings, which, if inhaled into lungs can be harmful. Though a debatable topic, most dentists now recommend that these fillings be replaced with other alternatives.

One major problem that we find our patients face is illness due to this kind of fillings. Many patients come to us on the advice of their physicians, to replace their fillings. Most physicians are of the opinion that heavy metals, including mercury are the cause of their sickness. Falling sick and then not recovering is one of the major side effects of this kind of fillings.
When to Replace Silver/Mercury Fillings
- This is a very common question that our patients ask. We offer them advice that best suits their needs. Some patients are very proactive and want their fillings replaced, though no harmful effect is seen. Knowing the research undertaken, the patients fell that prevention is better than cure.
- Some other patients request changing the filling after some other health problems arise. The patients get the feeling that there is mercury leakage and it is stored in their body. In order to avoid further damage to their health, they prefer the fillings removed. This is a precautionary measure.
- Then there are the most desperate ones, who have suffered the side effects of these kinds of fillings. They have fallen sick, and no amount of medication could cure them. Even after consulting the best physicians, undergoing the relevant tests, taking the best medicines, and following all the instructions, there is no improvement in their physical health.
- On the advice of their physician, they request us to replace silver/mercury fillings, and there is a drastic change in their health. Suddenly all the medications start working, their health shows considerable improvement, and the patient suddenly is no longer a patient.
- Most physicians understand that mercury makes a person sick, and play havoc with their health. It keeps them sick for a long time as it does not let the medication work for them. It attacks the immunity system of the person and is a road block in the path towards recovery.
When any one of the above conditions occurs, it is time to replace our fillings. We, at Dr. Kezian understand the pain of the patient and offer the relevant treatment as fast as possible.
