Hi Sandra,

Sorry this is so confusing. It's too bad this it has to be this way but, unfortunately doctors have opinions on this issue and I believe they or often behind the times. The vast majority of doctors don't keep up with the latest research on these subject but will, however, have strong opinions about it.

I believe the mercury under the crown can be harmful, based on the things I've read. Teeth are permeable, just as rock is, and substances move through it.

Also, Algin is a real good idea so please don't hesitate to contact Laura and she'll get some to you. 1-800-358-4278.
