I live in Canada and the dentists here also risk losing their license to practice if they tell patients mercury is toxic, they are only allowed to say that 3% of the population may be sensitive to it...a dentist told me that in confidence.

And my old dentist got so angry when I told him I was getting mine removed...he thinks also that you get more mercury from a plate of fish...I think that is a rehearsed response they learn in medical school.

I haven't seen that ad yet Carla, but I think you are right, their backs are up against the wall, thanks to the world wide web. Without the knowledge that I have found on my computer, I would probably be dead by now.

Knowledge is power, you can never have enough!!!!
