Did any of you here in the States catch this on Good Morning America?

This is terrible. But I find it amazing that we are shocked to find lead in dental products coming from China, while it is perfectly fine to allow mercury to be used with the 'seal of approval' from the ADA, despite years of complaints regarding the serious health effects. I think we need to send an email to Good Morning America to let them know that lead is not the only toxin in our teeth. Imagine if you have a few of those lead crowns along with silver fillings!

Thanks.

My lead levels were real high when i got the blood tests... mercury high too but lead was actually higher.

The dental community will never admit anything. I kept telling them it was the crown, because i was fine prior (there was an out of the box temp crown too, which I think had REALLY high levels of lead, It had a really weird terrible taste which I am sure was lead, a sweet burnt taste) and then of course I had worked commercially with high lead paints, but over 12-14 years ago but my health was fine during all that, i felt strong all these years. so of course, while I told the truth abouth that they denied any responsibilty about anything...

what really gets me is that when i had the crown removed they refused to let me keep it. I wanted to get it tested and they wouldn't give it to me. Absolutely refused.

dentists are the biggest bunch of liars I have ever dealt with in my life I think. You have to be real careful. A blood test for heavy metals BEFORE you get any major work done is probably the only way to protect yourself.
