So today I got my last filling replaced, however. When I got home and tjecked it out in the mirror I noticed two amalgam colored spots on the tooth, Id scraped and brushed on it, but it wont come off, it looks like its "in" the tooth. One of them is around 1mm in diameter, the other maybe only 0.5mm in dia, would such a small amount of mercury matter for a DMSA treatment?

Also, Im abit worried that though the other replaced teeth-filling looks allright, that there may be spots left under the plastic, since I've had them all replaced by the same dentist.

Its rather horrible going to the dentist for me, since I get bad anxiety there, and cant go there alone, cant go anywhere alone for that matter... And im sure my mom arent enjoying the trips that much either.

Im quite sure it arent discoloration, since both of the spots are on the plain tooth, and not in the cracks or uneven areas. So I dont supose anyone knows if its allright to start dmsa, even with a little bit amalgam left?
