Let us know what you find out, Elaine!
I am really struggling to find an alternative to mercury that I am happy with. No question I want the amalgam removed, but all the alternatives seem to carry some problem with them. This is worring.
My fertility problems have worsened over the past 6-7 years, and that's the time I started to have white fillings instead of mercury. Not because I was as concerned about mercury as I am now, but just to be on the "safe side". But the estrogen the Bisphenol A may leak, along with the sealants I have, is really worrying me and I'm not happy to have these composites instead incase they are contributing to my amenorrhea along with the mercury.
I don't have much money and all my treatment is going to have to be on credit, but I don't want to jump from mercury poisoning to another substance to pollute my body.
From what I've read so far, which hasn't been a lot, the best materials seem to be gold alloy and ceramic porcelain, but they are also the most expensive, and carry risks with them too. I can't afford £2000 right now to have the treatment, and it might cost that much alone to have just one tooth done, and I have about 5-7 teeth with mercury in them.
I'm just hoping that the dentist will come up with something that I can afford and that I am reasonably happy with. I accept that anything I fill my teeth with is not going to be 100% "safe", but I hope better than the mercury. If I can get a composite filling that does not have oestrgen mimicking properties, then I will look into those. I believe there are some.
