Hi Wonder if anyone knows lastest advice on silver amalgum fillings whilst pregnant. I had cavity in january but my dentist refused to touch due to mercury risk. I was happy with this event though hole now bigger and possible root treatment needed. I've had my baby so now booked ion for filling. However my friend 31wks had silver filling removed yesterday and new one inserted. She is now having panic. Can anyone reassure her. Is it just that some dentist err on cautions side. Know it's due to risk of mercury but unsure how big a risk.
